What should I pack when moving to Phuket?
We asked people living in Phuket to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Phuket, 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 climate. Bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Bring a mosquito net and insect repellent to protect yourself from mosquitoes. Pack a first aid kit with basic medical supplies. Bring a few items of clothing that are appropriate for more formal occasions, such as a dinner or a business meeting. Bring a few books or magazines to help you pass the time. Finally, bring a few items that will remind you of home, such as photos or mementos," explained one expat living in Phuket, Thailand.
