What should I pack when moving to Italy?

"I wish I had brought: Spices I love and that are hard to find here (if its not oregano or basilico or chili, its a bit difficult to find where I am). More flashy clothing (I was under the impression that there were poor people here and felt no need to be austentatious) but I was wrong, here they seem to generally like austentatious people. More family photos (postal service is not to be trusted with unreplaceable things like photos). Things I wish I had left: Summer clothes that would be used with a mild climate. Here, summers are extremely hot and it is difficult to use more than a swimming suit and a sarong in summer. My precious things. I had a drycleaner specializing in leather ruin (butcher really) my 1000euro suede bag and still charge me 30euro for it after having it at his shop for two months. My expectations. I should have left those home. Where I live is another planet not another country," wrote a member who made the move to Catanzaro, Italy.

"When moving to Italy it is important to pack your essential documents such as your passport, visa, and any other important paperwork. You may also want to remember to bring items like a first aid kit just in case you are in need of basic medical supplies. It is also recommended to bring some warm clothing such as sweaters and jackets since the weather in Italy can get chilly during the winter months. Additionally, you should definitely pack some comfortable shoes, as the cobblestone streets of Italy are not always friendly to high heels. Lastly, it is a good idea to bring a good quality suit or dress for special occasions, as the Italians take pride in their fashion," explained one expat living in Italy.
