Valletta - Post Report Question and Answers

What household or grocery items do you wish you had shipped to post?

I easily adapt to the local environment in terms of household or grocery items, so I didn't wish for anything. - May 2023


Peanut butter, almond butter, nuts, and chocolate chips. - Oct 2018


More cooking oil (if you like Wesson), Crisco, syrup, and anything else liquid you might want. Suntan lotion/spray (crazy expensive here). Corn meal also. Can't get it here. - Sep 2016


More groceries, especially liquids (soda, peanut butter, salad dressings, etc), kids clothing/shoes (very available, but expensive here). With LQA housing, most furniture is generally provided, but we wanted some of our own items and our house did not have closets built in, so we needed more storage options. - Jan 2014


Small appliances. - Feb 2010


Space heaters for the surprisingly cold and dank winters. Scuba, snorkeling and diving gear. - Feb 2010
