What should I pack when moving to Somalia?
We asked people living in Somalia to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Somalia, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Bring clothing that is lightweight and breathable, such as cotton and linen, as well as a few warmer items for the cooler months. Be sure to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Bring a first aid kit and any necessary medications. Bring a few items to help you adjust to the culture, such as books about Somali culture and language. Additionally, bring a few items to help you stay connected to your home country, such as a laptop, phone, and charger," wrote a member who made the move to Somalia.
