Wish List

If you are wanting to send me something but totally stumped on what to send, these are the things I really miss or are hard to come by in Botswana... Feel free to pick any of them! Love you all! And thank you!
  • Pictures and love notes from family and friends (This is the BEST!)
  • Dried Fruit (especially mango)
  • Mixed Nuts
  • Granola Bars
  • Turkey Jerky
  • Candy (Sour Patch Kids, Jolly Rangers, Jelly Bellys, Bit O Honey, etc.) 
  • Spices
  • Cheesy Flavored Things (Like Cheez-Its, Goldfish, Easy Mac, etc)
  • Coloring Books, Stickers, and Games for Kids (The village kids come over to play a lot so it's nice to have new fun things to do with them while they are here...) 
  • Cruelty-Free Products (i.e. Alba, Toms, etc.)
  • Nail Polish
  • Magazines (If you're going to throw it away, how about recycle it instead by sending it my way?! I would appreciate anything from The New Yorker to Foreign Policy to Mental Floss and Glamour and Cosmo. Basically any magazine that can give me a glimpse into life back home!)
  • Media (movies, tv shows and/or music)
  • The occasional tank top or tee shirt (clothes get pretty ratty with hand washing and hanging dry... read: holes)
  • Anything else you think will put a giant smile on my face!
