What should I pack when moving to Zandvoort?

We asked people living in Zandvoort to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Zandvoort, you should pack clothing suitable for a temperate maritime climate, including warm clothing for the winter months and lighter clothing for the summer. Waterproof clothing, such as raincoats and umbrellas, are essential due to the frequent rain. Pack enough toiletries to last until you can find a local store, including items like toothpaste, shampoo, and soap. Don't forget to bring any prescription medications you may need, along with copies of your prescriptions. Bring all necessary documents, such as your passport, driver's license, birth certificate, and any necessary visas or work permits. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents. If you're planning on cooking, you may want to pack some basic kitchen supplies until you can purchase more locally. Pack any electronics you use daily, like your laptop or smartphone, along with the necessary chargers and adapters for European outlets. If you're moving for work or school, bring any necessary supplies like textbooks or office materials. Don't forget to pack personal items that make you feel at home, like photos, favorite books, or comfort items. Lastly, consider packing a basic first aid kit, including band-aids, antiseptic wipes, and pain relievers," explained one expat living in Zandvoort, The Netherlands.
