What should I pack when moving to Paarl?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Paarl to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Paarl, you should pack a variety of clothing to accommodate the warm summers and cooler winters. This includes lightweight clothing for the hot months, as well as warmer clothing like sweaters and jackets for the cooler months. Don't forget to pack a good pair of walking shoes for exploring the beautiful surroundings. Sun protection is essential in South Africa, so pack plenty of sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses. If you plan on visiting the beach, don't forget your swimsuit and beach towel. Pack all your necessary toiletries, but keep in mind that most items can be purchased locally. However, if you have specific brands or products you prefer, it's a good idea to bring them with you. Remember to bring any prescription medications you need, along with copies of your prescriptions. It's also a good idea to pack a basic first aid kit for minor injuries or illnesses. If you're planning on cooking at home, you might want to pack some of your favorite non-perishable food items, as they may not be available in South Africa. Don't forget to pack important documents, such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or work permits. It's also a good idea to have copies of these documents in case they get lost or stolen. Lastly, consider packing items that will make your new house feel like home, such as photos, favorite books, or small keepsakes. These can help ease the transition and make your new place feel more comfortable and familiar," commented one expat who made the move to Paarl, South Africa.
