Travelling light is the key to a pain-free, stress-free adventure...so they say!
The important stuff:
- 2x Backpacks - (but still not too sure what to put in!) 65 litre
- 2x daypacks- 25 litre. Idea for keeping valuables and documentation with you at all times.
- 2x Passports - including photocopies
- 2x Visas - including photocopies
- 2x Copies of teaching certificates
- Money - sort it when we get there
- Medication - Plasters, paracetamol, Imodium, Dioralyte, sun block, Mosquito spray, all jabs, anticeptic cream, toiletries, hand sanitiser. We have made a decision NOT to take malaria medication. Some may say this is unwise...we have our reasons.
- Mosquito net
- Travel Insurance
- 2x Netbooks - Well, it can get boring when one person is on the internet and the other isn't!
- 2 X Cameras 1 for taking HD video and zoom (Fujifilm Finepix S9500- semi-slr), 1 point and click as a backup (Fujifilm Finepix A900) I bet you can tell which make of camera I enjoy using!

- 2x Flash Cards
- Batteries
- Charger
- Universal adapter
- MP3 Player and headphones
- Spare pair of glasses
- Sunglasses
- Pack of playing cards

- Couple of bin liners - to keep things dry
- 3 metres of nylon string - make-shift washing line and good for emergencies if your bag bursts or even tie-dying a boring t-shirt!
