It was essential to get a decent travel insurance, and I found Worldnomads.com who seem pretty good.
Next was to check if we needed any specific vaccinations, even though now it is a bit late to get them.
We only need to be careful with mosquitos..and seeing as mosquitos LOVE me for dinner, I will be taking that strange potion I bought in Shanghai two years´ago.
So, now it´s almost time to go...packing my case is going to be fun...travelling light is not possible with me.
