Freetown - Post Report Question and Answers

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

I shipped what I needed, but recommend bringing good coffee, tortilla chips, quinoa, and other western or ethnic food food you like. Although there are a number of Chinese grocery stores that are well stocked with Chinese ingredients. Also recommend bringing cleaning supplies and personal products. - Jan 2022
