Hello, there! I’m going to Africa soon! Let me describe my “African safari”
checklist to you.

My checklist includes five important aspects. The first, and most important
one, is Vaccination and immunization. The Kenyan Government says I can’t
enter the country without proof that I got a vaccine against the yellow fever. I
also need to check that I have all the common vaccines (the ones you
usually get as a child). For that reason, I have to visit the doctor to check my
record and plan a vaccination schedule (in case I need it) at least three
months before my departure.

The second point on my list is the arrival. The hotel is not close to the airport
so I need to arrange a meet-and-greet service. The people from the hotel
can pick me up at The Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi. I have
to speak with them soon to let them know about my time of arrival and flight
number.

In addition, I need to make sure I have the appropriate clothing for Africa.
Kenya is a tropical country so days are hot and there is a lot of humidity. For
that reason, I need to buy several T-shirts and shorts for the hot weather.
There are quite a lot of mosquitos in Kenya too. I need to get a mosquito net
and an insect repellent to take with me at all times.

The fourth point on my list is money. The official currency in Kenya is the
Kenya Shilling. Although there are several ATMs in the country now, I need
to make sure I have enough cash with me in case I don’t find one. To
exchange money, it is good to have dollars or euros so I need to buy some
before my trip. I can pay for the hotel and buy souvenirs with a credit card so
I have to call my bank to authorize the use of my credits cards in Kenya. An
extra task is to find out about the Shilling: its coin and bill denominations and
to familiarize with them.

Finally, there is one important thing to consider. That is the contact with
animals during the Safari. I cannot interfere with their natural behavior. It can
be very dangerous. Also, I have to consult my guide before getting out of the
vehicles. There are usually lots of wild animals around and it is better to
prevent attacks.

That’s all friends. See you in Africa!

Mary

Hi all! I'm going to San Andrés islands soon! Let me describe my "visit
to the island "for you.
My checklist includes five important aspects. The first, and most important, is
vaccination and immunization. The government says I cannot travel to the city
without proof that I was vaccinated against dengue. I also need to verify that I
have all the common vaccines (the ones you usually get when you were a kid).
For that reason, I have to visit the doctor to check my record and plan a
vaccination program (in case I need it) at least three weeks before my
departure.
The second item on my list is arrival. The hotel is not near the airport, so I need
to organize a welcome service. People from the hotel can pick me up at the
Gustavo Rojas Pinilla Airport. I have to speak to them soon to inform them of
my arrival time and flight number.
Also, I need to make sure I have the right clothes for the island. San Andres is a
tropical country, so the days are hot and there is a lot of humidity. For that
reason, I need to buy multiple T-shirts and shorts for hot weather. There are
also many mosquitoes in San Andres. I need to bring a mosquito net and insect
repellent to carry with me at all times.
The fourth item on my list is money. The official currency in San Andres is the
Colombian Peso. Although there are now several ATMs in the country, I need to
make sure I have enough cash with me in case I can't find one. To exchange
money, it is good to have dollars, so I need to buy some before my trip. I can
pay the hotel and buy souvenirs with a credit card, so I have to call my bank to
authorize the use of my credit cards in San Andres. An additional task is to find
out about the Colombian Peso: its denominations of coins and bills and become
familiar with them.
Finally, there is one important thing to consider. That is the contact with the
animals on the beach. In addition, I have to consult my guide for the trip.
Usually there are many wild animals around and it is better to prevent attacks.
That's all folks. See you in San Andres!
