What should I pack when moving to Kabul?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Kabul to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"It is important to pack items that are both practical and suitable for the climate. A good quality winter coat is essential, as Kabul can experience very cold weather during the winter months. Good quality and comfortable shoes are also important, as the terrain around Kabul can be uneven. Electrical and kitchen items like adapters, a kettle, and an oven may be required, so ensuring to have these and any other necessary items is advisable. You should also bring identification and important documents in case of emergencies," wrote a member who made the move to Kabul, Afghanistan, Afghanistan.
