What should I pack when moving to La barra?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to La Barra, Uruguay, you should pack a variety of clothing suitable for a temperate climate, including both warm and cool weather attire. Don't forget your swimwear, as the area is known for its beautiful beaches. Pack plenty of sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect yourself from the sun. You should also pack any prescription medications you need, as well as a basic first aid kit. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, bring an extra pair and any necessary supplies. Bring your important documents, such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or permits. It's also a good idea to have copies of these documents. Pack your electronics, such as your phone, laptop, and chargers. An adapter may be necessary for your electronics, as Uruguay uses a different type of plug. If you're planning on cooking, you might want to bring some of your favorite non-perishable food items, as they may not be available in Uruguay. Don't forget personal items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos, favorite books, or small decor items. Lastly, pack a Spanish-English dictionary or phrasebook, or download a translation app on your phone, as Spanish is the official language of Uruguay," remarked another expat in La barra, Uruguay.
