What should I pack when moving to Lucca?
We asked people living in Lucca to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Lucca, you should pack a variety of clothing to accommodate for the Mediterranean climate, including lightweight clothing for the warm summers and heavier, layered clothing for the cooler winters. Don't forget a good pair of walking shoes, as the city is known for its walkability. Pack your essential documents such as your passport, visa, driver's license, and any necessary medical records or prescriptions. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents as well. If you're planning on cooking, consider packing some of your favorite non-perishable ingredients that may be hard to find in Italy. Remember to pack any electronics you'll need, including your laptop, phone, chargers, and a power adapter for Italy's type L outlets. Bring personal hygiene items to last the first few weeks, until you can find local brands that you like. If you're moving for work or school, don't forget any necessary work materials or textbooks. Pack some sentimental items like photos or small keepsakes to make your new place feel like home. Lastly, consider packing a basic first aid kit, including band-aids, antiseptic wipes, and any over-the-counter medications you use regularly," remarked another expat who made the move to Lucca, Italy.
