We asked people living in Guimaraes to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Guimaraes, you should pack essential documents such as your passport, visa, birth certificate, and any other identification documents. Bring enough clothing for different seasons, including warm clothes for winter and lighter clothes for summer. Don't forget comfortable shoes for walking and exploring the city. Pack any necessary medications, along with a small first aid kit and copies of your prescriptions. Bring electronic devices such as your phone, laptop, and chargers, as well as a power adapter for European outlets. It's also a good idea to pack a few personal items that remind you of home, like photos or small keepsakes. Make sure to bring some cash in euros for immediate expenses upon arrival, as well as a credit or debit card that works internationally. If you plan on driving in Portugal, bring your driver's license and an international driving permit. Pack a Portuguese phrasebook or language learning materials to help you communicate with locals and navigate your new surroundings. Finally, bring a reusable water bottle, a reusable shopping bag, and any other eco-friendly items to help reduce waste while living in Guimaraes," explained one expat living in Guimaraes, Portugal.
