  • MSF staff can be away from home for up to 12 months at a time providing emergency healthcare in some of the most challenging environments. So travelling light and only packing the essentials is a must.
    But what makes it into their luggage may surprise you. It's not all mosquito repellent and gum boots.
    Tell us what you'd take with you in the comments below
    If you're interested in working with MSF visit: www.msf.org.uk/work-overseas
    Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organisation that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare.

    I feel sad for the people who don't have the guts to go out into the world and do something like this or even the will to do something 'nice' in their life for others and yet they have the audacity to write hate comments on videos like this. Pathetic

    Some postal cards from home or from some iconic place like Eiffel Tower. And a compass, always a compass: a GPS gadget may fail, your phone may fall in the river, the rain could block your normal way back to the camp, but a compass never fail. Loyal friend.

    • @krisushi1
      @krisushi1 4 года назад

      Perfume? Green tea is okay but do you really need lemon and mint? Chocolate is a necessity wherever one goes and quite a lot of deodorant especially in a hot climate I'd guess. My Swiss army knife has a toothpick in it so that takes care of many things.

    I'm probably 4 years from getting my BSN (at age 42), and have thought about joining MSF. Do they take middle-aged people with little professional experience but a decent amount of life experience, albeit as a privileged person in the US? I'd pack as if for an extended backpacking trip, except that I can bring more "luxury" items like deodorant and a pillow and gifts for people--sounds like chocolate is popular! Stickers or candy for local kids? Maybe booze to give away and/or drink myself. Tampons/pads for me and to give away? Not much clothing, makeup, or jewelry, though. Hiking boots, sandals, work shoes. Raincoat, rain kilt, sun protection (mechanical and chemical), lip balm, lotion. OTC meds. More things to give away, maybe? Professional texts/guides? I'd certainly write a comprehensive list before I left, were I leaving. Phone, laptop, solar charging panel. Sounds like padlocks might be important, judging from others' comments.

      Have a look at their website, its got all the information you need about experience and who they are looking for ect. They often recruit nurses from the countries the missions are in for what iv heard but its worth having a look.

      If I was 42 with your credentials, I would go. You pack heavy & so do I but I’d really work at traveling light. Take two lightweight, insulated outfits including long-johns. Protective inside/outside shoes & socks. Warm hat. Tiny things to delight kids. My pillow, alpaca throw, whiskey & night shades. Chocolate!
