Completed Packing List!

Hello friends!

I have been getting tons of questions from friends and family asking what I am going to bring to Vanuatu. At first glance it might be an easy enough question. What makes this question quite complicated is all the unknowns in my future. Yes, I know which country I will be moving to, but I am not sure how the housing situation will be. Some volunteers have a concrete house, some have outside squat toilets. The truth is that I won't know until I get assigned a location.
