What should I pack when moving to Myanmar?
We asked people living in Myanmar to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Myanmar, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing that is appropriate for the hot and humid climate. Bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Bring a mosquito net and insect repellent to protect yourself from mosquitoes and other insects. Bring a first aid kit and any necessary medications. Pack a few items that will help you adjust to the culture, such as books about Myanmar and its people. Finally, make sure to bring a valid passport and any other necessary documents," said a member in Myanmar.
