What should I pack when moving to Tarragona?

Answer this Question

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

"You should pack clothing suitable for a Mediterranean climate, including lightweight clothing for the hot summers and warmer clothing for the cooler winters. Don't forget to pack a good pair of walking shoes as Tarragona is a city best explored on foot. Bring along your swimsuit and beach gear as Tarragona has beautiful beaches. You should also pack a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Remember to pack all necessary travel documents such as your passport, visa, and driver's license. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents in case they get lost or stolen. Pack any prescription medications you need, along with a copy of your prescription. It might also be useful to bring a basic first aid kit. If you plan on cooking, you might want to pack some of your favorite spices or ingredients that might be hard to find in Spain. Bring a power adapter for your electronics as Spain uses a different type of plug. Pack a Spanish phrasebook or dictionary if you're not fluent in Spanish. This will help you communicate with locals and navigate the city. Don't forget to pack personal items such as toiletries, although these can also be purchased in Tarragona. Lastly, consider packing a few items that remind you of home. This could be photos, a favorite book, or a comfort food. These items can help you feel more comfortable and settled in your new home," remarked another expat who made the move to Tarragona, Spain.
