We asked people living in Rocha to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Rocha, you should pack a variety of clothing suitable for a temperate climate, including both lightweight and warmer items for the varying seasons. Don't forget to pack a good quality raincoat and umbrella, as Rocha can experience heavy rainfall throughout the year. Pack comfortable walking shoes for exploring the city and hiking boots if you plan to venture into the nearby national parks. Also, consider packing a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Bring your personal toiletries, prescription medications, and a basic first aid kit. While these items are available in Rocha, having them on hand can be convenient when you first arrive. Pack your important documents, such as your passport, visa, driver's license, and medical records. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents. If you plan to cook at home, you might want to pack some of your favorite non-perishable food items, as they may not be available in Rocha. Don't forget to pack your electronics, such as your laptop, smartphone, and chargers. An adapter plug for Uruguay's type F and type L sockets would also be useful. Lastly, pack some personal items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos, small keepsakes, or your favorite books," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Rocha, Uruguay.
