"When moving to Cartago, it is important to pack clothing suitable for the climate. Lightweight, breathable fabrics are best for the hot and humid weather. It is also important to bring a good supply of sunscreen and insect repellent. Additionally, it is a good idea to bring a few items of warm clothing for the cooler evenings. Other items to consider packing include a first aid kit, a flashlight, and a good supply of any medications you may need," explained one expat living in Cartago, Colombia.
