What should I pack when moving to Crucita?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Crucita, it's important to pack lightweight clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items like shorts, t-shirts, and light dresses. Don't forget to pack a good quality sunscreen and a hat to protect yourself from the sun. A swimsuit is a must-have item as Crucita is a beach town. Pack a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Comfortable walking shoes are essential, as well as flip-flops for the beach. You should also pack a rain jacket or umbrella for the rainy season. Remember to bring any prescription medications you need, as well as a basic first aid kit. It's also a good idea to pack insect repellent and any necessary vaccinations for tropical diseases. Bring your personal toiletries, although keep in mind that most items can be purchased locally. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, bring an extra pair. Pack your important documents such as passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or work permits. Also, bring copies of these documents and keep them separate from the originals. If you plan on cooking, you might want to pack some of your favorite spices or condiments that may not be available locally. Don't forget your electronics like your phone, laptop, and chargers. An adapter might be necessary as Ecuador uses Type A and Type B outlets. Lastly, pack some personal items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos, small keepsakes, or your favorite books," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Crucita, Ecuador.
