What should I pack when moving to Kampala?

"When moving to Kampala, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing that is appropriate for the hot and humid climate. Bring a few items of warmer clothing for the cooler evenings. Make sure to bring a good pair of walking shoes, as Kampala is a very walkable city. Bring a few items of formal clothing for special occasions. Pack any necessary medications, as well as a first aid kit. Bring a few items of entertainment, such as books, music, and movies. Finally, make sure to bring any important documents, such as your passport and visa," said another expat in Kampala, Uganda.
