We asked people living in Ajijic to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Ajijic, you should pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the warm climate, including shorts, t-shirts, and sandals. Don't forget a few warmer items like sweaters or light jackets for cooler evenings or unexpected weather changes. Pack a good quality sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect yourself from the sun. Bring your prescription medications and a basic first aid kit, as certain medications might not be readily available. Also, pack toiletries and personal hygiene items, although most can be purchased locally. If you plan on cooking, consider packing some of your favorite spices or food items that may not be available in Mexico. Pack important documents such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or residency paperwork. Also, bring copies of your medical records and insurance information. Don't forget your electronics like your phone, laptop, and chargers. An adapter might be necessary as Mexico uses different electrical outlets than some countries. If you enjoy leisure activities, pack items like books, board games, or sporting equipment. Lastly, pack sentimental items like family photos or small keepsakes to make your new place feel like home," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Ajijic, Mexico.
