What should I pack when moving to Pretoria?

"When moving to Pretoria, you should pack a variety of clothing to accommodate the city's warm summers and mild winters. This includes lightweight clothing for the summer months, as well as warmer clothing for the cooler months. Don't forget to pack a good quality sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect yourself from the strong African sun. You should also pack comfortable walking shoes, as Pretoria has many beautiful parks and nature reserves to explore. If you plan on participating in outdoor activities, consider packing appropriate gear such as hiking boots or a swimsuit. Bring along any prescription medications you may need, as well as a basic first aid kit. It's also a good idea to pack a supply of any toiletries or personal care items you use regularly, as they may be more expensive or difficult to find in South Africa. If you're moving for work or study, don't forget to pack any necessary documents, such as your passport, visa, work permit, or school records. You should also bring a copy of any important medical records. Pack a variety of electrical adapters, as South Africa uses a different plug type than many other countries. If you plan on bringing electronics, make sure they are compatible with the 220-240 volt power supply used in South Africa. Lastly, consider packing a few items to remind you of home, such as photos or favorite snacks. These can help you feel more comfortable and settled in your new surroundings," commented one expat who made the move to Pretoria, South Africa.
