An Expat Talks about Moving to Cebu, Philippines

What is the name of the city or town that you are reporting on?

Cebu

Name three things that you wish you had brought and three you wish you had left at home.

I have totally different advice on what to bring than I've seen from others. Will you need light weight clothing? Yes. Do you need to buy such clothes in America and bring them here with you? No. You can buy any clothes you need here. Ditto most of TBE things people advise you to bring. If you need it here, you can buy it here. I suggest: 1. Bring anything of sentimental value to you. If you have some cherished item that can't be replaced, bring it. But mostly 2. Bring things that are cheaper in the west than here, like electronics. Bring your laptop if you have one. That sort of thing.
