Turin, Italy
What should I pack when moving to Turin?
We asked people living in Turin to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Turin, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack clothing that is appropriate for the weather, such as light layers for the summer and warm layers for the winter. Bring comfortable shoes for walking around the city, as well as a raincoat and umbrella for the occasional rain shower. Additionally, it is a good idea to bring a few items that remind you of home, such as photos, books, and music. Finally, make sure to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport and visa," remarked another expat in Turin, Italy.
"What I brought: 1. Good Seasonings Salad Dressing Packets. The fresh produce is fantastic, but salad dressing is either oil, vinegar with salt & pepper, or creamy brands from France. The seasoning packets are fantastic when made with olive oil and balsamic vinegar! 2. Small cookie sheets & baking dishes: ovens are smaller. 3. A good camera to document our adventure from the beginning. Leave Behind: More Clothing. Relocating from the Northeast, our clothes were too heavy (even Northern Italy is mild compared with Boston--both winters are summers). Also, Italians tend to be more formal and more fashionable in their attire. Short-Ban Radio. Never used it. Bikes. They were stolen," said a member in Torino, Italy.
