Why yes you can!
Cory and I leave on Tuesday, July 12th and we still need a few things to take with us. So as promised, here is a list of things that you can buy/give to us before we leave (listed in order of importance/need)::
- 1 Digital camera. We have made a wish list and would be happy with any of these cameras. If you have something very similar to this at home and want to give us a used camera instead that is just as great!

- 1 iPod. Cory does not have an iPod and on travel days or just to get some “alone” time while on the trip this will be pretty necessary. Any iPod is fine, new or used.
- 1 Day pack. We have one, but need another because Jessie’s day pack is just an old book bag. Color: Grey (http://www.rei.com/product/808614/mountain-hardwear-agama-pack)
- 1 Eno Hammock Double Nest. Jessie already has one, but in Africa when it is hot and you don’t want to sleep in a tent this is a great alternative. (http://www.rei.com/product/754773/eno-doublenest-hammock)
- 1 Slapstrap set for the hammock (http://www.rei.com/product/768731/eno-slapstrap-pro)
- 1 Kindle/Nook so we can read during the year without having to bring a whole bookcase worth of books.
- 2 Adapters (http://www.rei.com/product/775148/rei-multination-travel-adapter)
- Underwear: Jessie – 7 black, xs (http://www.rei.com/product/795155/exofficio-give-n-go-string-bikini-briefs-womens) Cory – any color, size small, one of each (http://www.rei.com/product/694431/exofficio-boxer-briefs-mens) and (http://www.rei.com/product/684397/exofficio-boxers-mens)
- 1 Travel shower to use when we do not have access to one. (http://www.rei.com/product/758045/sea-to-summit-pocket-shower)
If you are interested in buying/giving us any of these things you can always give us a call to get more information as to what we are looking for or where you can get it. If you would like to give us a gift card to Walmart, REI, Target or Best Buy so that we can pick them up ourselves that is an option too, and probably one of the best options to use.
How can you get money, gift cards, or items to us?
- Mail. If you would like to mail things to us, please remember that we leave on Tuesday July 12th, so everything will have to get to us by Monday July 11th. Mail it to:: Jessie German 6636 Garrett Road Buford, GA 30518
- Meet us in person. We also can meet up with you in person to get it with you or pick it up from you. Call us at 404-784-6763 to make arrangements to meet up.
If you get us something or are thinking about getting us something, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE write it as a comment on here as to what you are wanting to do. One, so that if others are thinking of getting the same thing, they don’t; Two, so that we know to expect it and if it does not reach us we can let you know.
Thank you everyone for all of your support whether through gifts, prayer, or donations, we are so blessed to know each and every one of you!
