April is reported to be one of the hottest months in Bangalore. I just checked the weather today and it is currently
96°F. Definite packing items are sunscreen, sunglasses, my
battery-operated fan with extra batteries, and Summer clothing. One of the India Expats working at our office
recommended that I bring an umbrella to shade myself from the sun. Right now that is on the “questionable” list because the only time I ever use an umbrella is in the rain and the one I have is black,
but I just might regret not bringing one once I am there.
Other important items on my packing list include:
- Immodium, Sudafed and other medicines
- Lots of snacks from Fresh & Easy
Neighborhood Market!
- Gifts for the team
- Mosquito Repellent
- Small calculator that fits in my moneybelt for
calculating exchange rates
- Flashlight due to power outages that are quite
common in Bangalore and because we will be working from 5:30pm until 2:30am India Standard Time
- Hand sanitizer and extra toilet paper (which I've been told has to be placed in a designated “receptacle” because it cannot be
flushed)
If anyone has other suggestions for useful items to bring, please let me know.
