    • Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Weather is very hot, so clothes for hot season. Don't forget long sleeves shirts and long trousers in cream colour for evenings: protection against mosquito bites

    Toiletries & Medical Supplies: MALARIA: some malaria of the North of Ghana resist now to the usual medecine.
    Anyway, if you are travelling less than three months, take the usual paludrine and nivaquine.
    You can also have a stronger like LARIAM, but only use it if you feel fever and think you have malaria.

    I do like this: I don't take anything, but have my tablets. If I feel fever, I take tablets during some days, 5 per day.
    And every day, I eat some hot pepper and garlic. This food gives a particular smell to you blood mosquitos hate!

    • Toiletries & Medical Supplies: BLACK STONE
    the black stone is a kind of magic stone that White Belgian Father found in Congo. This stone is particular. When you are bitten by a snake or any other venenous animal, you cut the skin, let the blood come and put the stone on the wound. The stone will take all the venin and when there is no more venin in the body, it will fall. Then, you let it boil in milk and when it floats again, it is ready for a second use.

    You think it is magic? I did so, but I experienced this stone and it worked.
