What should I pack when moving to Saint-Malo?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Saint-Malo, you should pack a variety of clothing to accommodate for the city's temperate maritime climate. This includes warm clothing for the winter months, such as sweaters, scarves, and a heavy coat, as well as lighter clothing for the summer, like shorts, t-shirts, and swimwear if you plan on visiting the beach. Rain gear, including a waterproof jacket and umbrella, is also essential as the city experiences rainfall throughout the year. Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as the city is best explored on foot. Don't forget to pack any necessary prescription medications, 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're planning on cooking, you might want to bring some specialty kitchen items that might not be readily available in France. Remember to pack all necessary travel documents, including your passport, visa documents, and driver's license. Electronics like your laptop, phone, and chargers should also be included in your packing list. Don't forget to bring a power adapter for French outlets. Lastly, bring personal items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos, small keepsakes, and your favorite books," remarked another expat in Saint-Malo, France.
