"When moving to Bruges, it is important to pack warm clothing for the cooler months, as temperatures can drop below freezing. Rain gear is also essential, as Bruges experiences a lot of rainfall throughout the year. Comfortable shoes are also recommended, as Bruges is a very walkable city. Additionally, it is important to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport, visa, and other important paperwork. Finally, don't forget to bring any items that will make your new home feel like home, such as photos, books, and other personal items," wrote a member who made the move to Bruges, Belgium.
