Also I would recommend you bring you're own drinking water, because of Africa's bad purification (if they even have any). Finally I think congo is the African jungle (?) so you don't really want to go in there. Be safe of any bad plagues or diseases. Thank you. i wish you luck, and god bless you.

Bottled water was an important item, stomach medication and snacks that a person enjoys would be a good thing to pack. It is an exciting adventure to travel around the world to a country such as Africa; use common sense and caution along with trust in God to give you discernment in many areas as you travel. God bless your efforts and your heart. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Traveling To Africa Post By Allison (Guest Post) (05/20/2006) Bring extra contacts! Once I lost one on the bathroom floor on a mission trip to Mexico. My mom had to fedex me another one because I could hardly see with only one. Now I bring an extra pair on EVERY overnight trip.

I also would advice that you have your vaccinations upto date especially Tetanus and Cholera. You might want to ask about the Yellow fever vaccine.

I'm sure someone at the office will be able to help you.
