What should I pack when moving to Sri Lanka?
We asked people living in Sri Lanka to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Sri Lanka, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Consider bringing lightweight, breathable clothing that is appropriate for the hot and humid climate. It is also important to bring items that will help you stay connected to your home country, such as a laptop, phone, and any necessary chargers. Additionally, it is a good idea to bring any necessary medications, as well as a first aid kit. Finally, don't forget to bring any important documents, such as your passport and visa," commented one expat who made the move to Sri Lanka.
