What should I pack when moving to Abidjan?

"When moving to Abidjan, 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 hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Bring a mosquito net and insect repellent to protect yourself from mosquitoes. Bring a few items of clothing that are appropriate for the local culture, such as a long skirt or dress for women and a collared shirt for men. Additionally, pack any necessary medications, toiletries, and other personal items," said a member in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
