the essentials.

we're all busy packing our personal belongings and all of our supplies (think: bibles/books, arts and crafts, stickers, a guitar, and 50 soccer balls!) ....because we leave in 3 days!!

besides the obvious things like your malaria pills and your passport, here's 3 essentials you do not want to forget when traveling to rural Africa...

toilet paper. when nature calls, you wanna be ready.

energy bars. because rice & beans for 8 meals straight can get a little...well...boring.

fresh wipes. so even if the water stops working (aka no showering) your teammates will still let you sit next to them in the van.
