Note -Indicated Quantities with a ' * ' are optional. Condiments and Spices are not covered in the above list. The above list hopefully indicates most of the items that you may be in immediate requirement for the first few weeks until you settle down well at Germany. This is just a guideline to help you pick and choose the necessary things Avoid packing Spices & Condiments along with clothes, lest they should smell nasty when you unpack.
