What should I pack when moving to Leipzig?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Leipzig, you should pack a variety of clothing to accommodate for the city's four distinct seasons. This includes warm clothing for the winter months, such as heavy coats, scarves, gloves, and hats, as well as lighter clothing for the summer, such as shorts, t-shirts, and sandals. You should also pack a good pair of walking shoes, as Leipzig is a very walkable city with many pedestrian-friendly areas. Rain gear, including a sturdy umbrella and waterproof shoes, is also recommended due to the city's frequent rainfall. In terms of electronics, remember to pack a power adapter for your devices, as Germany uses a different type of plug than many other countries. If you plan on working or studying, bring your laptop and any other necessary electronics. Don't forget to pack any prescription medications you take regularly, along with a copy of your prescription. It's also a good idea to bring a basic first aid kit for minor injuries or illnesses. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, bring an extra pair along with your prescription. Pack important documents such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or work permits. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents, in case the originals are lost or stolen. Lastly, consider packing a few personal items to make your new place feel like home. This could be anything from photos of loved ones to a favorite book or blanket," said a member in Leipzig, Germany.
