What should I pack when moving to Florence?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Florence, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack clothing that is appropriate for the warm Mediterranean climate, such as light, breathable fabrics and comfortable shoes. Bring items that will help you stay organized, such as a suitcase with wheels and a laptop bag. Don't forget to bring a few items that will help you feel at home, such as photos of family and friends, books, and music. Additionally, it is important to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport, visa, and any other paperwork related to your move," wrote a member who made the move to Florence, Italy.

"When I moved to Florence, I actually brought five suitcases, way too much of everything. It cost me so much more in fees so would recommend two suitcases at the most. My luggage was too heavy so I wish I would have chosen lighter suitcases, less heavy clothes and less shoes. They have better and less expensive shoes as well as clothes," explained one expat living in Florence, Italy.
