The classification description is as follows:
1, kitchen category: the first rice cooker: cooking, stewing and soup all depend on it, which also saves time and doesn't have to be distracted by reading. It is also suggested to bring a knife and a chopping board. I think it is optional. Many student dormitories are equipped with kitchens and even pots and pans. But you can bring a microwave lunch box, hot rice and milk, and the weight is not heavy. You can bring an extra pair of chopsticks for your own use or as a gift (international students like it very much); Chinese food can bring some seasonings, not too heavy: chicken essence, dried pepper, compressed fungus, compressed mushrooms, shrimp skin and pork floss. Of course, these can also be bought in China, but the price is 5- 10 times higher.
2, electronics: notebook computers (you can bring them as much as possible, bringing them on the plane is not a weight); Headphones: chatting with family online with MSN is more valuable than buying a phone card; U disk or removable hard disk: multi-tape, preferably more than 64M. It's very expensive here, and there is a great demand. I brought back seven during the Spring Festival, which is in short supply (cheap, but can be sold after three times); TV card: Some dorms don't have TV, and those with notebooks can watch it with TV cards. Digital camera: European development film is very expensive, more than ten euros/roll, and cameras are much cheaper to buy in China; Mobile phone: domestic mobile phones can be used directly here, but mobile phones bought here can't be used directly when they return to China (it seems to take a year); Electronic dictionary; The adapter must be brought, as well as CDs, software and so on. There are rechargeable batteries+chargers, patch panels, bicycle locks and music stars.
3. Clothing: Before I came, I saw an article saying that it would rain for nine days in ten days in the Netherlands, but when I came, I found this statement to be true, at least for seven days. People here are not well dressed, so it is ok to prepare some rain-proof casual clothes. Of course, it is necessary for boys to prepare a suit, and it is also necessary for girls to wear evening clothes or cheongsam (at least at graduation ceremony). You can bring a swimsuit: The beaches here are much more beautiful. Swimming is the main way of leisure and vacation in summer, but many beaches here have celestial bodies, and you can do without a swimsuit.
4, travel sports: sleeping bags: domestic duck down sleeping bags are light and good, some dormitories here do not provide bedding, and many youth hostels and small hotels only charge for bedding; Sports shoes: There are many parks here, and you will find jogging in the parks a pleasure. Slippers: Dormitories and European hotels do not provide slippers; You should also bring a Swiss army knife.
5. Stationery: notebooks, pens, glasses (bring an extra pair), small alarm clocks, envelopes (if you don't write often, you really need to bring some spare ones, which are not for retail here).
It's best to bring photos of BF, GF and their families to relieve the suffering of lovesickness.
6. Medicine: The air here is very good and the food is very hygienic, so there are almost no students in China who have a cold and fever. However, because most of them have irregular diets and often suffer from minor illnesses such as stomachache or discomfort, you can prepare some Chinese medicines such as stomach medicine, eye drops, scalding medicine, falling water pills, fenbid and clearing away heat and purging fire; Although I bought medical insurance, I usually have to make an appointment 5- 10 days in advance until I get sick (many people don't seek a doctor).
7. Super glue and hardware: Super glue: In case the shoes brought by China are cracked and degummed, bicycle tires can be repaired. Hardware: If the luggage is not overweight, you can take one set.
8. Handicrafts: China traditional folk handicrafts, trinkets and gifts for teachers or parties can be used. Especially the chains and trinkets on the neck and hands are the favorite of foreign girls.
9, mobile phone problem, the current mobile phone is generally dual-band, can be brought to the Netherlands for use. Buying a mobile phone in the Netherlands is still much more expensive than in China, and comrades who have mobile phones in China can use it. You can sign T-MOBILE's SIM ONLY card here, which is cheaper. By the way, I remember again. Bring an extra alarm clock so that you can get up on time in the morning.
10, all kinds of official documents, all kinds of achievement certificates with the original. You can copy them when you get here. There is also a PASSPHOTO multipoint, 1 inch, more than 2 inches.
Highly recommended-
1, washing powder. Although Dutch washing powder is very expensive, it takes up a lot of space and weight when brought here, which greatly reduces the already limited luggage space and weight. Comrades can buy laundry detergent, which is less expensive and better than washing powder. Washing powder should be replenished every time, and it is easy to burn clothes if it is too much. Laundry liquid will do. There are many supermarkets that specialize in washing colored clothes and black and white clothes.
2. Cosmetics and skin care products for girls can only be used for one month. I think girls study these things thoroughly. If you have time to go to the store, you can definitely understand it, so it is not recommended to bring it, including perfume, which is cheaper than in China. And shampoo and shower gel, no need to bring a big bottle. Just buy those small packages, one package at a time, and buy more than a dozen packages. It is very cheap in the supermarket. Of course, small items such as towels, toothbrushes and toothpaste are lighter, so you can consider taking more.
3, quilt pillow, this thing is big and heavy, look at your box, is there room to put it? Buy it in Holland. You can buy it everywhere and the price is not particularly expensive. 40 euros a set is not bad. There is heating at home in winter, and it snows heavily outside. It can be 37 degrees at home. You don't need to buy a thick quilt, just buy a thin one.
4, vitamin nutrients, this thing is definitely cheap in the Netherlands, and there are vitamins such as strength extension in China, which are expensive. Come and have a look. Every supermarket has it.
