What should I pack when moving to Annecy?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Annecy, you should pack clothing suitable for the region's climate, including warm layers for the winter months and lighter clothing for the summer. Don't forget a waterproof jacket and an umbrella, as the city experiences rainfall throughout the year. Bring comfortable walking shoes, as the city is best explored on foot, and hiking boots if you plan to explore the nearby mountains. Pack essential documents such as your passport, visa, birth certificate, and any other identification you may need. Bring copies of important documents, such as medical records, prescriptions, and insurance information. If you're moving for work or study, make sure to have all necessary paperwork and certifications. Bring any personal electronics, such as your smartphone, laptop, and chargers, as well as a power adapter for European outlets. Consider packing a small French phrasebook or language learning materials to help you communicate with locals and navigate your new surroundings. Pack personal items that will make your new home feel more comfortable, such as photographs, small keepsakes, and favorite books. Don't forget toiletries and any specific personal care items that may be difficult to find in France. Lastly, pack a small supply of non-perishable snacks and basic cooking supplies, as you may need them before you have a chance to go grocery shopping in your new city," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Annecy, France.
