What should I pack when moving to Madrid?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Madrid, it is important to pack clothing suitable for the climate. Madrid has a Mediterranean climate, so lightweight clothing for the summer and warmer clothing for the winter is recommended. Additionally, it is important to bring any necessary medications, as well as any important documents such as passports and visas. It is also a good idea to bring a few items from home to make the transition easier, such as photos, books, and other sentimental items. Finally, it is important to bring any necessary electronics, such as a laptop, phone, and chargers," commented one expat who made the move to Madrid, Spain.

"Brought: 1) More clothes, you simply can't get Old Navy/GAP quality clothes for even anywhere close to US prices 2) More hygienic products, once again wayyy more expensive here. 3) Pillows, seriously can't buy a bunch of pillows like you could in Target," remarked another expat in Madrid, Spain.
