What should I pack when moving to Chania?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Chania to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Chania, you should pack a variety of clothing options suitable for the Mediterranean climate, including lightweight clothing for the hot summers and warmer clothing for the cooler winters. Don't forget to pack a good pair of walking shoes for exploring the city and its surroundings. Swimwear is a must for enjoying the beautiful beaches, and a sun hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen are essential to protect yourself from the sun. Pack any prescription medications you need, along with a copy of your prescription. It's also a good idea to bring a basic first aid kit. If you plan on cooking, you might want to pack some of your favorite non-perishable food items that may be hard to find in Greece. Remember to bring all necessary travel documents, such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or residency permits. Pack a power adapter for your electronics, as Greece uses a different plug type than many other countries. If you're planning on working or studying, bring any necessary materials, such as your laptop or textbooks. Lastly, consider packing some personal items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos or small mementos," commented one expat who made the move to Chania, Greece.
