What should I pack when moving to Belgium?
We asked people living in Belgium to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Belgium, it is important to pack items that will help you feel comfortable in your new home. Consider bringing clothing for all seasons, as the weather in Belgium can vary greatly. It is also a good idea to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport, visa, and any other important paperwork. Additionally, it is wise to bring any necessary electronics, such as a laptop, phone, and charger. Finally, don't forget to bring any items that will help you feel at home, such as photos, books, and other personal items," commented one expat who made the move to Belgium.
