I packed ready to go back to Botswana for a few days. I decided to pack light and to pack a lot of summer clothes. Therefore, I packed a few summer dresses, a couple of sandals and two pairs of sunglasses. Botswana is extremely hot at this time of the year with temperatures ranging from thirty degrees to forty degrees. In temperatures as hot as these, it's extremely important to pack the following which I recommend below.

1. A bottle of sunscreen- to protect your skin from getting sunburnt (even if you are a black person the sun does not discriminate). Sunscreens nowadays come with moisturising lotion added in them to protect and keep your skin soft and smooth.

2. A bikin- when the temperatures get unbearably hot, you might want to jump in the pool.

3. A sun hat - I love the range of sun hat below from Woolworths. Totally adorable.
