What should I pack when moving to Arnhem?
We asked people living in Arnhem to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Arnhem, you should pack a variety of clothing to accommodate for the city's temperate maritime climate, including warm clothing for the winter months and lighter clothing for the summer. Rain gear, such as waterproof jackets and umbrellas, are essential due to the frequent rainfall throughout the year. Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as the city is very pedestrian-friendly and you'll likely spend a lot of time on foot. If you plan on cycling, which is a common mode of transportation in the Netherlands, consider packing appropriate gear, including a helmet. Don't forget to pack your important documents, such as your passport, visa, driver's license, and any necessary medical records or prescriptions. If you're moving for work or study, remember to bring any relevant paperwork. Pack any electronics you'll need, including a laptop, phone, and chargers. Remember that the Netherlands uses Type C and Type F plugs, so you may need to bring adapters. If you're moving into an unfurnished apartment, you may need to pack some basic household items, such as bedding and kitchenware. However, it's often easier and more cost-effective to buy these items once you arrive. Finally, consider packing some personal items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos, favorite books, or small keepsakes," wrote a member who made the move to Arnhem, The Netherlands.
