What should I pack when moving to Antigua?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Antigua, you should pack lightweight clothing due to the warm climate, but also include a few sweaters or jackets for cooler evenings. Rain gear, such as a waterproof jacket or umbrella, is essential as Antigua experiences a rainy season. Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as the city is known for its cobblestone streets. Pack your essential toiletries, but remember that most items can be purchased locally. Don't forget your prescription medications, and it's a good idea to bring a basic first aid kit. Bring your important documents, such as your 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 using electronics, remember that Guatemala uses 120V power, so you may need a voltage converter. Also, pack a Spanish-English dictionary or phrasebook to help with communication. Lastly, pack items that remind you of home, such as photos or favorite snacks, to help with the transition," wrote a member who made the move to Antigua, Guatemala.
