What should I pack when moving to Riga?

"When moving to Riga, it is important to pack warm clothing, as the climate is cold and wet. A good raincoat and waterproof boots are essential for the rainy season. It is also important to bring a good supply of sunscreen and insect repellent, as the summer months can be quite hot and humid. Additionally, it is a good idea to bring a few items of clothing that can be layered, as the weather can change quickly. Finally, it is important to bring a valid passport and any necessary visas or permits," said another expat in Riga, Latvia.
