What should I pack when moving to Orleans?
We asked people living in Orleans to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Orleans, it is important to pack the appropriate clothing and personal items. Pack warm clothing, including a coat, hats, scarves, boots, and sweaters for the cold months of winter in Orleans. In the summer, it can get hot, so lightweight clothing and airy fabrics are appropriate for that season. Bring toiletries such as shampoo, soap, and other essential items. Bring items for rainy weather, such as a raincoat, umbrella, and waterproof boots. Don’t forget to pack household items such as kitchenware, bedding, towels, and cleaning supplies. Depending on where you are staying in the city, it’s important to bring appropriate furniture and electronics such as a television, refrigerator, and microwave. Don’t forget to also pack important documents such as passport, medical records and any other necessary paperwork," said another expat in Orleans, France, France.
"Our TV was accidentally shipped. It doesn't work here as a TV but we use it offline to play the VCR and DVD movies. We brought everything else so don't miss anything," wrote a member who made the move to Orleans, France.
