Planning For Italy : to-do list & helpful information

How do we feel about lots of Italy/PCS Content. We want to share and document as much as possible so hopefully this helps at least one person. If you have ever PCS'd or lived overseas, drop a comment below to share some of your knowledge with us and others! Thanks for watching! xo

First, best of luck for your family while transferring to Italy! Here are some things my family would definitely add based upon our own Italian travels: 1. Places like TJMaxx have a great selection of affordable, hard shell luggage which usually come in sets of three (one of which you can take as a carry-on with essentials in case the others get delayed/lost). 2. Bring make-up (as well as body and hair products) for African-Americans, as it will be hard to find and/or very expensive. 3. Italian (aka, European) clothing and shoe sizes run small compared to American builds, so if you are taller/bigger, stock up.

Good luck on the process. We found out last summer we were going to Italy and finally leave in one week. We went and bought a new set of hard body luggage and taking 2 big black rolling duffles also.

Thank you! Goodluck to y’all! I hope it’s an easy transition. Is this the first overseas assignment?

[@tamaraYvonne02]

@@FaisaHolloway Thanks! This is our second. We moved to Germany 15 years ago when we were first married.🙈

We’ve always wanted to go to Germany! It’s good that y’all kind of know what to expect
