What should I pack when moving to Gambia?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Gambia to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Gambia, it is important to pack clothing that is appropriate for the climate. Lightweight, breathable fabrics such as cotton and linen are ideal for the hot and humid weather. It is also important to bring a good supply of sunscreen and insect repellent to protect against the sun and mosquitoes. Additionally, it is a good idea to bring a first aid kit, as well as any necessary medications. It is also important to bring a few items to make your new home feel more comfortable, such as pictures, books, and other personal items. Finally, it is important to bring a valid passport and any other necessary documents," remarked another expat who made the move to Gambia.
