  • Colored panties will be too conspicuous under the white tops and bottoms.
  • You can take a 2 – 3 sets of casual wears/mufti for Sunday and camp fire night.

Get a cheap wrist-watch. Everyone uses a waist purse. It’s your camp bestie. Most of these items can be easily bought in the camp so don’t worry. If you can’t get them before traveling.

  • Mp3/ iPod
  • Eye pads for sleeping & ear plugs
  • Surge protectors / extensions

If you have an internet-enabled camera phone, do take it along. Camp life can be very boring without one. You will like to take pictures and share with your friends. You only need to be very vigilant and protective of your things. If you feel you need a bulletproof vest or helmet, please carry it. You know what we mean, don’t you?

MONEY, MONEY, AND MORE MONEY.

  • Never, ever, ever run out of it. Bring as much as you can afford.
  • Mirrors and forks are known to be contraband items in camp
  • Prices of items apart from fast consumer goods (Credit, Gala, Indomie etc) are usually higher than those outside so it is advisable you buy the things you can before going into camp.

PACK AS LIGHT AS YOU CAN AND MAKE SURE YOUR BOX IS AS THEFT-PROOF AS POSSIBLE.
