What should I pack when moving to Luxembourg?
We asked people living in Luxembourg to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"Wish I brought a snow shovel, gardening stuff- (rakes, edger, lawn mower) and more plug adapters. Wish I left behind all the winter boots, gloves and clothes we haven't used," said another expat in Bertrange, Luxembourg.
"When moving to Luxembourg, it is important to pack items that will help you feel comfortable in your new home. Consider bringing clothing for all seasons, as the weather can vary greatly throughout the year. It is also a good idea to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport, visa, and any other important paperwork. Additionally, it is helpful to bring items that will help you feel at home, such as pictures, books, and other personal items. Finally, it is important to bring any necessary electronics, such as a laptop, phone, and any other devices you may need," wrote a member who made the move to Luxembourg.
