What should I pack when moving to Senegal?
We asked people living in Senegal to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Senegal, 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 comfortable shoes for walking and exploring. Pack a few items of formal clothing for special occasions. Bring any necessary medications and a first aid kit. Bring a few items of sentimental value to make your new home feel more familiar. Don't forget to bring a few items to help you learn the local language," explained one expat living in Senegal.
