"When moving to Tirana, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack clothing that is appropriate for the warm summers and cold winters, such as light layers for the summer and heavier coats and sweaters for the winter. Bring comfortable shoes for walking around the city, as well as a raincoat and umbrella for the frequent rain showers. Additionally, it is important to bring items that will help you adjust to the culture, such as a phrasebook to help you learn the language and a guidebook to help you navigate the city. Finally, don't forget to bring any necessary documents, such as your passport and visa," remarked another expat in Tirana, Albania.
