What should I pack when moving to Algeria?
We asked people living in Algeria to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Algeria, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack clothing that is lightweight and breathable, as temperatures can reach up to 40 degrees Celsius in the summer. Bring a few items of warm clothing for the winter months, as temperatures can drop to below 10 degrees Celsius. It is also important to bring a few items of modest clothing, as Algeria is a conservative country. Additionally, pack any necessary medications, toiletries, and other personal items. Don't forget to bring a few items to help you adjust to the culture, such as books about the language and culture of Algeria," explained one expat living in Algeria.
