Spain
What should I pack when moving to Spain?
We asked people living in Spain to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"Left Behind: Nothing, except for a container full of family papers. Brought: A car (they're cheaper in the USA), all the "gadgets" you can get in the USA that they don't generally have in Europe," remarked another expat who made the move to Barcelona, Spain.
"Wish I brought: quality brazieres, hand sanitizer, large size socks and hosiery Wish I didn't bring: anything electrical, toiletries, bright colored clothes," explained one expat living in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
