Over the past few weeks, I have gathered any possible thing that one needs in an African country: solar shower, sandals, bandannas, Dr. Bonners peppermint soap etc. Now I'm just in the waiting game ready to get out of here and on to a very exciting next stage of life.
The only thing that I'm still trying to figure out is what to get my host family. My mom has already bought jelly beans which I think they would really like but I also want something really American. If anyone has any ideas...
I think a four lb bag of jelly beans is about as much as the airline and your host family can handle in terms of gifts. They'll love you regardless of what you bring, though I don't think you can ever go wrong with candy :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for you! Don't slack off on the updates, please, because I'll be missing you.
Hmm, it might be tricky to transport, but I think you can pull it off:
