What should I pack when moving to Corfu?
We asked people living in Corfu to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Corfu, you should pack a variety of clothing suitable for a Mediterranean climate, including lightweight clothing for the hot summers and warmer clothing for the cooler winters. Don't forget to pack swimwear for the beautiful beaches and comfortable walking shoes for exploring the island. You should also pack essential toiletries, but keep in mind that most items can be purchased locally. If you have prescription medications, bring enough to last for your initial period, along with a copy of your prescription. Bring your important documents such as passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or work permits. It's also a good idea to have copies of these documents. If you plan on cooking, you might want to pack some of your favorite non-perishable food items, as they may be hard to find in Corfu. Remember to pack any electronics you'll need, including your phone, laptop, and chargers. An adapter plug for European outlets would also be useful. Lastly, consider packing items that will help make your new place feel like home, such as photos, small keepsakes, and favorite books," wrote a member who made the move to Corfu, Greece.
