Packing List

by jepclg98

The best are backpacks with water containers Do not forget to bring sunglasses, tennis shoes, sandals,hat (or buy a sombrero)jeans and t-shirts if you´re planning to go hiking or visiting places because we have a very warm weather, buy if you´re planning to go dancing bring formal clothing to go to the discoteques. Remember that you will make lots of friends in here so please bring extra t-shirts anb be prepare to give them away you´d better bring mosquito repelent, medicine for your stomach because you will taste food that your system is not accustom to, and bring the personal things you use to freshen up such as toothpaste... You can get almost everything you need for your camera in the local market but if you´re planning to go to the country side do not forget to bring extra rechargable batteries to be taken with you It depends on what you have on mind but mostly I reccomend you...

The good thing about El Salvador is that you can find almost anything (provided you are in San...
