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!

Hello! I'm going to the Amazon soon! Allow me described on my checklist of


my trip through the Amazon.

My ranking list includes five important aspects. The first, and the most
important, is vaccination and immunization. The Colombian government says I
have a yellow fever vaccine. I also need to verify that I have all the common
vaccines (the ones I usually get as a child). For that reason, I have to visit the
doctor to verify my registration and plan the vaccination schedule (at least
three months before my departure).

The second point on my list is the arrival. The hotel is not near the airport, so I
have to organize a meeting and welcome service. Hotel people can pick up at
the Alfredo Vasquez Cobo International Airport. I have to talk to them soon to
inform about my arrival time and flight number.
Also, I need to make sure I have the right clothes for the amazon. The Amazon
is a tropical city and has a lot of humidity. For that reason, I need to buy
several long-sleeved shirts and pants for warm weather. There are also many
mosquitoes in the Amazon. I need to have 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 the Amazon is the
Colombian Peso. Although as the Amazon borders with Brazil I must also carry
out the exchange of this currency. I can pay for the hotel and buy souvenirs
with a credit card, but I can still have cash to avoid using the credit card. An
additional task is to find out about the real Brazilian, not to be confused with the
values and how it is paid.

Finally, there is one important thing to consider. That is the contact with the
animals during the tour of the jungle. I can not interfere with your natural
behavior. It can be very dangerous. Also, I have to consult my guide before
leaving to try to deviate from my route. In general, there are many wild animals
nearby and without savages but it is better to prevent attacks.

That's all friends. See you in the Amazon!
