What should I pack when moving to Bahamas?
We asked people living in Bahamas to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"Brought in: good broom, more storage boxes, kitchen ustensiles Left home: antique furniture, Lamps, kitchen appliance with european voltage," remarked another expat in Nassau, Bahamas.
"Only needed electronics (PC or Mac etc) and especially cables; what you can pack in checked luggage; most homes for rent/lease are furnished; would recommend purchasing just low cost housewares here (cheap plastic knockoffs) but any appliance (Air Fryer; etc) you should bring as it will cost double here to purchase plus VAT tax," said a member in Bahamas.
