"When moving to Popoyo, you should pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items such as shorts, t-shirts, and sundresses. A swimsuit is essential as Popoyo is known for its beautiful beaches and surfing spots. Don't forget to pack a hat, sunglasses, and a high SPF sunscreen to protect yourself from the intense sun. You should also pack a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Comfortable walking shoes or sandals are a must, as well as water shoes if you plan on exploring the beaches or participating in water activities. In terms of toiletries, pack travel-sized essentials and any specific brands you prefer, as they may not be available locally. Don't forget to pack any prescription medications you may need, along with a basic first aid kit. Bring a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and help reduce plastic waste. Also, pack a good quality insect repellent to protect against mosquitoes. If you plan on cooking, you might want to bring some of your favorite spices or condiments, as they may be hard to find in local stores. For entertainment, consider packing a few books, a portable music player, or any other compact items you enjoy. Lastly, don't forget to pack important documents such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or permits. It's also a good idea to have copies of these documents in case of loss or theft," remarked another expat in Popoyo, Nicaragua.
