What should I pack when moving to Lille?

"When moving to Lille, you should pack clothing suitable for a temperate climate, including warm layers for the colder months and lighter clothing for the summer. Don't forget a waterproof jacket and an umbrella, as Lille experiences frequent rainfall throughout the year. Pack comfortable walking shoes, as Lille is a walkable city with many cobblestone streets. You may also want to bring a more formal pair of shoes for special occasions or dining out at nicer restaurants. Bring any necessary prescription medications, along with a copy of your prescription and a note from your doctor explaining the medication and its purpose. This will help you avoid any issues at customs and make it easier to refill your prescription in France if needed. Pack a power adapter and voltage converter, as France uses a different type of electrical outlet and voltage than many other countries. Bring important documents, such as your passport, visa, birth certificate, and any other identification or paperwork you may need for setting up your life in Lille. This may include documents related to housing, employment, or enrolling in school. Pack a basic French phrasebook or dictionary, as well as any language learning materials you may be using to help you improve your French skills. Bring a small supply of toiletries and personal care items to last you for the first few days, but keep in mind that you can easily purchase these items in Lille once you arrive. Pack any personal items that will help make your new living space feel like home, such as photographs, small decorations, or a favorite blanket or pillow. Lastly, consider bringing a small gift or souvenir from your home country to share with new friends or neighbors as a gesture of goodwill and a conversation starter," remarked another expat who made the move to Lille, France.
