Bring It
Some items you Might Not find on the Field
When on your Survey Trip check the availability of items you might
need and make a list of things to bring that you cannot get.
Documents
- Birth Certificates
Clothing
- Consider not only style, but the stature of the people in the country you are going. If most of the people are only 5 feet tall it will be difficult to find clothing if you are a larger person.
- Children grow quickly. Consider stocking up on different sizes to include the varying seasons.
- Shoes may be difficult to find or extremely expensive for American styles and sizes.
- Some countries have "Tourist" areas that cater to Western styles. Prices might be considerably more than in the States.
