What should I pack when moving to Oxford?
We asked people living in Oxford to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Oxford, you should pack clothing suitable for the temperate climate, including layers, waterproof jackets, and comfortable shoes for walking. Bring essential documents such as your passport, visa, and any necessary medical records. Pack any prescription medications you may need, along with a travel adapter for UK electrical outlets. Don't forget your laptop, chargers, and other electronic devices you use daily. Bring a few personal items to make your new living space feel like home, such as photographs, small decorations, and a favorite book. Lastly, pack a reusable shopping bag, as many stores in the UK charge for plastic bags," said a member in Oxford, England.
