  Hi there,

  I’m sorry to hear that you’ll be leaving us! I do have some information for you in how to transfer your site over to WordPress.org though:

  If you’re interested, we offer an upgrade called Guided Transfer (available in the Store section of your blog’s Dashboard) where we take care of everything for you: http://en.support.wordpress.com/guided-transfer/

  Otherwise, you’ll need to install WordPress from http://wordpress.org/ on a hosting provider. We have some recommendations at http://get.wp.com/hosting/

  Once that’s done, you can move your content following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#moving-to-wordpress-org

  WordPress.org has complete support and documentation sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress at:
