"When moving to Rwanda, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack clothing that is lightweight and breathable, such as cotton and linen, as well as a light jacket for cooler evenings. Bring comfortable shoes for walking, as well as a pair of sandals for the hot days. Bring a hat and sunglasses to protect yourself from the sun. Additionally, pack any necessary medications, toiletries, and personal items. It is also important to bring a few items that will help you feel at home, such as photos, books, and music," remarked another expat who made the move to Rwanda.
