"When moving to Kelowna, it is important to pack clothing suitable for the climate. Layering is key, as temperatures can vary greatly throughout the year. Rain gear is also essential, as Kelowna experiences a lot of precipitation. Additionally, it is important to bring any necessary medications, as well as any important documents. Finally, it is a good idea to bring some items to make your new home feel like home, such as pictures, books, and other personal items," explained one expat living in Kelowna, Canada.
