What should I pack when moving to Lake Chapala?
We asked people living in Lake Chapala to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"You should pack for a warm, tropical climate with clothes that are lightweight and breathable, such as shorts, t-shirts and sandals. Bring items like a sunhat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to keep you safe from the sun. Don't forget to pack insect repellent to keep pests away. Be sure to bring an umbrella and raincoat if you plan on spending time outdoors during rainy season. Make sure to bring a power adapter or converter since many of the outlets in Mexico are different than in the US. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport and other important documents," remarked another expat in Lake Chapala, Mexico.
"Thanks to reading this website we brought two vacuums which worked out well. We could have left more of our art work at home. Also my hobby "stuff" in 25 book boxes that are now gracing the wall of our guest bedroom," said a member in Ajijic , Mexico.
