What should I pack when moving to Romania?
We asked people living in Romania to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"WISH I HAD BROUGHT: More books in my language (there are none here), computer mouse (spending more time alone made me use my laptop more), ice skates. WISH I HAD LEFT AT HOME: Creams and all those body care products, A dress that I hoped to get into again after miraculously loosing some weight, suit," said a member in Bucharest, Romania.

"When moving to Romania, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack clothing that is appropriate for the season, such as a coat and warm clothing for the winter months. Bring comfortable shoes for walking and exploring the city. Make sure to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport and visa. Additionally, it is a good idea to bring a few items from home to make your new home feel more familiar. Don't forget to pack any necessary medications and toiletries. Finally, it is important to bring a few items that will help you learn the language, such as a Romanian dictionary or phrasebook," remarked another expat who made the move to Romania.
