"When moving to Ioannina, you should pack a variety of clothing suitable for a Mediterranean climate, including lightweight clothing for the hot, dry summers and warmer clothing for the cooler, wetter winters. Don't forget to pack a good quality raincoat and umbrella, as Ioannina is known for its rainy weather. Pack comfortable walking shoes for exploring the city's historic sites and natural beauty, as well as more formal footwear if you plan on dining out or attending events. Bring your essential toiletries, but remember that most items can be easily purchased locally. If you take prescription medication, bring an adequate supply along with a copy of your prescription. Pack a universal power adapter for your electronic devices, as Greece uses Type F or Type C plugs. Bring important documents such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or work permits. If you're planning on cooking, you might want to pack some specialty ingredients that might be hard to find in Greece. Don't forget to pack your camera, chargers, and any other necessary electronics. Lastly, consider packing a few items to make your new place feel like home, such as photos or small mementos," said another expat in Ioannina, Greece.
