What should I pack when moving to Westport?
We asked people living in Westport to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Westport, you should pack clothing suitable for a temperate maritime climate, which means a mix of warm and cold weather clothing. Include waterproof jackets and boots for the frequent rain showers. Don't forget to pack your essential documents such as passport, visa, driver's license, and medical records. Pack your electronics, including your laptop, smartphone, chargers, and adapters as Ireland uses Type G plug sockets. If you're planning to cook, you might want to bring some of your favorite non-perishable food items that may not be available in Ireland. Bring personal items that make you feel at home, such as photos, small keepsakes, and favorite books. If you have prescription medication, pack enough to last for a few months, along with a copy of your prescription. Don't forget toiletries, although these can also be purchased once you arrive. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, bring an extra pair and some solution. Lastly, pack some basic household items to tide you over until you can shop for your new home, such as a set of bedding, a few dishes and utensils, and a towel," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Westport, Ireland.
