What should I pack when moving to Samana?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Samana, Dominican Republic, you should pack lightweight clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items such as shorts, t-shirts, and sundresses. Don't forget to pack a few swimsuits for the beach and pool. A light jacket or sweater is also recommended for cooler evenings. Pack plenty of sun protection items such as sunscreen, sunglasses, and a wide-brimmed hat. You should also pack insect repellent to protect against mosquitoes. Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as well as sandals or flip-flops for the beach. If you plan on hiking or exploring, consider packing a pair of sturdy hiking boots. Bring all necessary toiletries, but keep in mind that many items can be purchased locally. If you have specific brands or products you prefer, it may be best to bring them with you. Don't forget to pack any necessary medications, along with copies of your prescriptions. It's also a good idea to bring a basic first aid kit. Pack a power adapter for your electronics, as the Dominican Republic uses a different plug type and voltage than many other countries. Bring 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 they get lost or stolen. If you plan on cooking or preparing meals, consider packing some of your favorite non-perishable food items, as they may not be available locally. Lastly, pack items that will help you feel at home in your new surroundings, such as photos, favorite books, or small keepsakes," commented one expat who made the move to Samana, the Dominican Republic.
