It's great to be able to get rid of all the stuff you don't need. I'm preparing for a (much smaller) move and I can also sort through all my things and consider which ones I really want to keep. A friend of mine moved in from another country and it took him six months until he found a flat he could stay in. Over this period he lived out of one suitcase (wearing the same set of clothes over and over again) and he realized he didn't have to bring in so much stuff from his old place. Funny the way it is...

I don't know much about tools, but if they're not easily replaceable in your target country it probably makes sense to bring them, given that they work with the local power plugs / adapters.

Enjoy the ride - it's actually quite exciting!
