"When moving to Lucerne, you should pack a variety of clothing to accommodate for the changing seasons, including warm clothing for the winter months and lighter clothing for the summer. Waterproof jackets and shoes are essential due to the frequent rain. Don't forget to pack your swimsuit for the summer months when you can swim in Lake Lucerne. Pack all your necessary documents such as passport, visa, work permit, and any other identification. Also, bring copies of your medical records and prescriptions, if necessary. If you're planning to work or study, bring any necessary materials related to your job or course. This might include textbooks, professional attire, or specific equipment. Remember to pack your electronics, including your laptop, phone, chargers, and adapters. Switzerland uses type J plugs, so you may need a converter. Pack personal items that will make your new place feel like home. This could include photos, favorite books, or small keepsakes. If you have a favorite brand of toiletries that might not be available in Switzerland, consider bringing a supply with you. Don't forget to pack any necessary items for your hobbies or pastimes. If you enjoy sports, for example, you might want to bring your equipment. Lastly, bring some Swiss Francs for immediate expenses upon arrival, although credit cards are widely accepted," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Lucerne, Switzerland.
