What should I pack when moving to Playa Panama?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Playa Panama, you should pack lightweight clothing due to the tropical climate, including shorts, t-shirts, and swimwear. Don't forget to pack a rain jacket or umbrella for the rainy season. Comfortable walking shoes and sandals are a must, as well as a hat and sunglasses for sun protection. Pack your essential toiletries, but remember that most items can be purchased locally. If you take prescription medication, bring enough to last for your initial period, along with a copy of your prescription. Bring your important documents such as passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or permits. It's also a good idea to have copies of these documents. If you plan on cooking, consider packing some of your favorite non-perishable food items, as they may be hard to find in Costa Rica. Pack electronics like your laptop, phone, and chargers. An adapter may be necessary as Costa Rica uses type A and B plugs. Don't forget items for entertainment, such as books, games, or a hobby kit. Lastly, pack a basic first aid kit with band-aids, antiseptic wipes, and any other personal health items you might need," remarked another expat in Playa Panama, Costa Rica.
