An Expat Talks about Moving to Qingdao, China, China

What is the name of the city or town that you are reporting on?

Qingdao, China

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

When moving to Qingdao, it is important to pack clothing suitable for the climate, as Qingdao's summers are hot and humid and winters can be cold with some snow. Layering is always helpful in any climates. Bring some rain gear in case of unexpected downpours. A pair of comfortable walking shoes is essential since Qingdao is great for exploring and walking around the city. Other essential items to pack would include toiletries, a first-aid kit, medications, and any important documents you need. Electrics such as an adapter and power banks with multiple ports may also come in handy.
