Name three things that you wish you had brought and three you wish you had left at home.

When moving to Manila, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing that is appropriate for the hot and humid weather. Bring a few items of clothing that can be layered for cooler evenings. Bring a good pair of walking shoes, as well as sandals or flip-flops for the beach. Pack a few items of clothing that are appropriate for more formal occasions. Bring a few items of toiletries, such as sunscreen, insect repellent, and a first-aid kit.
