What should I pack when moving to Stanley?
We asked people living in Stanley to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Stanley, you should pack lightweight clothing due to the city's subtropical climate. Include a mix of short-sleeved and long-sleeved shirts, shorts, and pants. Don't forget to pack a raincoat or umbrella as Hong Kong experiences heavy rainfall, especially during the summer months. Comfortable walking shoes are a must as you will likely be doing a lot of walking. If you plan on working in a corporate environment, pack some formal wear. Pack your essential toiletries, but remember that most items can be easily purchased in Hong Kong. If you have specific brands you prefer, it might be a good idea to bring them along. Bring any necessary prescription medications and a copy of your prescriptions. It's also a good idea to bring a basic first aid kit. Don't forget to pack your important documents such as your passport, visa, driver's license, and any necessary work documents. If you have any favorite non-perishable snacks or comfort foods from home, you might want to pack a few to have on hand when you arrive. Remember to bring any necessary electronics such as your phone, laptop, and chargers. Adapters may be needed for your electronics as Hong Kong uses a type G plug. Lastly, bring items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos, small keepsakes, or your favorite books," wrote a member who made the move to Stanley, Hong Kong.
