What should I pack when moving to Riyadh?
We asked people living in Riyadh to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Riyadh, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack light, breathable clothing that covers your arms and legs, as well as a scarf or shawl to cover your head. Bring comfortable shoes that are suitable for walking in the desert heat. Sunscreen and sunglasses are also essential for protection from the sun. Additionally, it is important to bring a few items that will help you feel at home, such as pictures of family and friends, books, and music. Finally, make sure to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport and visa," wrote a member who made the move to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
