What should I pack when moving to Palma de Mallorca?
We asked people living in Palma de Mallorca to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Palma de Mallorca, you should pack a variety of clothing suitable for a Mediterranean climate, including lightweight clothing for the hot summers and warmer clothing for the cooler winters. Don't forget to pack swimwear for the beautiful beaches and a good pair of walking shoes for exploring the city. You should also pack a good quality sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect yourself from the strong sun. If you plan on dining out or visiting more upscale venues, pack some smart-casual clothing. Remember to bring all necessary personal items such as toiletries, prescription medications, and any specific brands you may not be able to find in Spain. Pack all your important documents, including your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or work permits. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents, just in case. If you're planning on cooking at home, you might want to pack some of your favorite non-perishable food items that may be hard to find in Spain. Don't forget to pack any electronics you'll need, including your phone, laptop, and chargers. You may also need a power adapter if your devices don't match Spain's Type F power outlets. Lastly, pack some items to make your new place feel like home, such as photos, small keepsakes, or your favorite books," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
