Ideas for packages to send to Swaziland!!/ Those things that I really miss from home.

After receiving quite a few AWESOME packages!! (Thank  you!!) I have discovered a few things that seem easy to send and I realize I miss very much once they are gone:


  • Nutella 
  • Boullion- with the limited availability of meat it is hard to make any stock, and stock is the base for so many delicious things, including dal (dahl?) which I am craving right this very moment.
  • Velveeta 
  • Granola bars
  • Pop-Tarts
  • M&Ms
  • Meat, summer sausage, pepperoni, skyline chili (Honestly my mouth is watering. Getting and keeping meat is tough here.)
  • Taco/Chili seasoning Packets (When we do get meat it is nice to be able to do something familiar, delicious, and otherwise impossible in Swaziland)
  • Water flavoring packages
  • Instant coffee
  • AAA batteries
  • Media of all kinds
    • Any CDs or recordings of NPR stories, especially the weekend shows (With the internet it is hopeless to download here) or new music
    • New TV series, old tv series, new movies, old movies
  • Magazines (Any really)
    • BonApetit
    • Glamour
    • Cosmo
    • Better Homes and Gardens
  • Any books that you are through reading and have enjoyed
  • Any artwork compiled by your children 
  • Pictures (Again- a pain and expensive to download)
  • Bug Spray (I am almost out of what I brought and have yet to discover any here)
  • Lysol wipes
  • Lesson Plans for Life Skills or English (:



Thank you all so much for the packages and letters! It really makes a difference in moral :)
