"When moving to Tervuren, you should pack clothing suitable for a temperate maritime climate, including warm clothing for the winter months and lighter clothing for the summer. Rain gear, such as waterproof jackets and umbrellas, are essential due to the frequent rainfall. Pack your important documents, such as passport, visa, driver's license, medical records, and insurance documents. If you're moving for work or study, don't forget any necessary paperwork related to your employment or education. Bring any prescription medications you take regularly, along with a copy of your prescription. It's also a good idea to pack a basic first aid kit. If you're planning to cook, you might want to bring some of your favorite non-perishable food items that might be hard to find in Belgium. Pack your electronics, including your laptop, smartphone, and chargers. Don't forget a power adapter for European outlets. Bring personal items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos, small keepsakes, and favorite books. If you have room, consider packing a few items for leisure activities, such as sports equipment or hobby supplies. Lastly, pack toiletries and personal care items to last the first few weeks until you can find where to buy your preferred brands," remarked another expat who made the move to Tervuren, Belgium.
