What should I pack when moving to Munich?
We asked people living in Munich to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Munich, it is important to pack warm clothing, as the winters can be quite cold. It is also a good idea to bring a raincoat and umbrella, as the city experiences a fair amount of precipitation throughout the year. Additionally, it is recommended to bring comfortable shoes, as the city is quite walkable. Finally, it is important to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport, visa, and any other paperwork required for the move," remarked another expat who made the move to Munich, Germany.
"We didn't bring much to Munich other than clothes and bikes. Nothing we needed here would have been worth the cost and hassle of shipping," explained one expat living in Munich, Germany.
