What should I pack when moving to Slovakia?

"When moving to Slovakia, it is important to pack warm clothing, as temperatures can drop below freezing during the winter months. It is also a good idea to bring a raincoat and umbrella, as the country experiences a lot of rainfall. Additionally, it is recommended to bring a few items of comfortable clothing, such as jeans and t-shirts, as well as some formal attire for special occasions. It is also important to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport and visa, as well as any important medical records. Finally, it is a good idea to bring a few items to make the transition to a new home easier, such as a few books, pictures, and other personal items," remarked another expat in Slovakia.
