Fist time travel to Somalia expectations.

[Xaawotaako]

My cousin is heading there. Kid is 23 and born isn the US Anyway, he asked me what are things to bring. What should I tell him? What should he need to bring to Mogadishu? Essential items to bring with you for someone not used to Africa and Somalia for that matter. TIA.

Tell him to leave the 50 dollar notes at home. Some people are weird about taking it because of the fakes in circulation. Tell him to take a power bank as well

Tell him to learn how to use a niclo. A lotta maqaayads there dont really use cash. Also tell him not to use an expensive looking phone outside [iphone, samsung], phone thieves there go crazy. I also suggest getting looking at data bundles or wifi in advance so that he doesnt have to think about that when hes there. [i suggest hormuud $10 package]. Also when he arrives to get a sim card and learn how to use EVC

Yes, I caught malaria myself there, albeit I was there for a while. It's not too common, but you can still definitely catch it.

Get your xaar's out the way and drink plenty of Camels milk soon as possible. You'll get an excellent flush of these food preservatives you've been living in for 23 years.

Guys he will blog the trip. Keep an eye for a new video soon. Ahaha he will stick out like sore thumb. I told him to buzz off his hair so he doesn’t attract unwarranted attention. And bring hand sanitizer.

I envy your cousin though I could use a nice vacation to Muqdisho

Its actually pretty safe nowadays. [despite everything you hear about it]. I have personally been and felt no danger. The homeless beggars are a bit scary though

Dhaqan celis 100% they plotting, stay cautious

 

[Riftvalley]

Diarrhoea tablets

 

[Abu Hesi]

Diarrhoea tablets

I was gonna post this, bring necessary medications, other than that Muqdisho has whatever shit they have at the West.

You will get a bad stomach. It is inevitable.

Get ready to shower with a bucket of water you had to retrieve from a well like a fucking elephant. Other than that should be fun. If he wants to make quick cash buy a bunch of cigarettes just under the limit for customs you’ll easily turn 2$ into 15-20$ bracelets are good for money too those are always in demand.
