Now let's get back to our packing list😁

1.      Identification Documents- Kenyan citizen and passport for non-Kenyans

2.       preventative medication

·         Your prescription medicine, 

·         Insect repellant if you travel during the rainy season

·         Eye drops 

·         Lozenges for dry throat or Vicks VapoRub for those who understand it (pain)😄

·         Heartburn medication just in case you get acidity 

·         Antihistamine

·         anti-malaria medicine

·         Sunscreen

·         Hand sanitizer

3. Clothes

 you don't need to carry your whole wardrobe with you😊 just a few pieces will do well, have clothes that are comfortable (mostly loose fitting), lightweight, and easy to dry to ensure you have clean garments daily and those that are neutral in color for camouflage in the wild, Khaki is a safari favorite for this reason.

4. Shoes-

ensure you pack comfortable shoes or boots since you might go on hikes

5. Sandals 

should not miss for your usage when walking around or for use when going for a swim 

6. Warm jumper, jacket, or shawls

- when the sun goes down or when you get up early in the morning for your morning game drive the weather might be a bit colder so you should pack something preferably a jumper because it won't be winter cold.

7. Swimsuit-

 I am sure with the day sunshine you will definitely be tempted to jump into the pool

8. Toiletries –

 most camps and hotels have this in the rooms but just carry yours in travel size to be on the safe side,

9. Sanitary products -

 for the ladies

10. Sunglasses 

and a spare, also for those using Contact lenses spare prescription glasses, will be good to have because the roads might be dusty which can make you uncomfortable.

 11. Electronics-

 a power bank for your phone or tablet and a torch either rechargeable, solar chargeable, or one that uses batteries either is okay, but you can also just use your phone torch

12. comfortable bra 

 Sports bra for the ladies this is more comfortable on the rough roads

13. Presents to Impact a life -

 as you travel you can contribute to the nearby communities by packing small supplies that they may need, head on to pack for a purpose and check out your location and get a glimpse of how you can make a positive contribution to someone's life.

Until next time 💖 Enjoy your safari 

Au revoir👋
