Accra, Ghana
What should I pack when moving to Accra?
We asked people living in Accra to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Accra, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing that is appropriate for the hot and humid climate. Bring a few items of clothing that can be layered for cooler evenings. Make sure to bring a good pair of walking shoes, as well as a hat and sunglasses to protect you from the sun. Bring any necessary medications, as well as a first aid kit. Don't forget to pack any important documents, such as your passport and visa. Finally, make sure to bring a few items that will help you feel at home, such as photos, books, and music," commented one expat who made the move to Accra, Ghana.
