What should I pack when moving to Dubai?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Dubai to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Dubai, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing that will keep you cool in the hot, humid climate. Bring a few items of formal clothing for special occasions. Make sure to bring a good pair of sunglasses and a hat to protect you from the sun. Bring a few items of swimwear for the many beaches and pools in the area. Pack a few items of traditional clothing to show respect for the local culture. Bring a few books or magazines to keep you entertained during your travels. Finally, make sure to bring any necessary documents, such as your passport and visa," remarked another expat who made the move to Dubai, the UAE.
