  • I did take some stuff when i still checked a bag. Chef’s knife + sharpener, a mini cord spun food processor, and a moka pot, to make hostel cooking nicer when i first get to a place. then once i have an apartment that ill be in for 2-4 months i make sure it has/buy a blender, a quality pan.

    That said knowing what i know now, the cost and ease of getting everything locally just doesnt make sense to check a bag for the small time/cost savings.

    I don’t bake, so a blender, a Pan, a Knife, a sharpener, and a moka pot are $100 total which is the cost of a checked bag.

    It would also depend on where i’m staying. Remote less developed area with not a ton of people, probably worth bring stuff. but in my mind the utility of the short term purchase works out.

    if I use the stuff multiple times a day for 3 months what’s $100-$200 vs the utility gained.
