Sundsvall What to Pack

Luggage and bags: Since I lived there for 5 months, I brought 2 suitcases, my backpack, and my purse. But if you're not going to stay as long as I did, one suitcase and carry-on is good enough, unless you need room for winter sports equipment or anything like that.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: If you're going in winter, bring warm clothes. It gets very cold and snowy. Comfortable winter boots, a coat, gloves, and a hat. But bring trendy clothes for the clubs if you want to go out at night.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Your own prescriptions, and some over-the-counter medicines you might need. In Sweden, I think you need a prescription for most things (even things that we would normally buy over the counter), so bring your own tylenol and all that.

Photo Equipment: A normal camera and film. There are many photo stores in town where you can buy film or disposeable cameras, and get film developped.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: If it's winter, warm clothes! Snowpants and a ski jacket if you want to go skiing/snowboarding.

Miscellaneous: If you wear glasses or contacts, bring a spare pair, in case you lose or break your normal pair.
