An Expat Talks about Moving to Kabul, Afghanistan, Afghanistan

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

Kabul, Afghanistan

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

It is important to pack items that are both practical and suitable for the climate. A good quality winter coat is essential, as Kabul can experience very cold weather during the winter months. Good quality and comfortable shoes are also important, as the terrain around Kabul can be uneven. Electrical and kitchen items like adapters, a kettle, and an oven may be required, so ensuring to have these and any other necessary items is advisable. You should also bring identification and important documents in case of emergencies.
