What should I pack when moving to Panama City?
We asked people living in Panama City to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Panama City, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing that is suitable for the tropical climate. Bring comfortable shoes for walking and exploring the city. Sunscreen and a hat are also essential for protecting yourself from the sun. Additionally, it is important to bring any necessary medications and toiletries. Don't forget to bring a few items that will help you feel at home, such as photos, books, and music. Finally, make sure to bring a valid passport and any other important documents," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Panama City, Panama.
"I arrived 4 days ago, and so far, I don't wish for anything more, nor anything less. I've brought clothing and essentials and that's all," commented one expat who made the move to Panama City, Panama.
