MARY’S SCRIPT OF THE CHECK LIST (EXAMPLE) APPRENTICE’S CHECK LIST (Escriba aquí su lista en párrafos)
Hello, there! I’m going to Africa soon! Let me describe my “African safari” checklist to you. TYPE HERE
My checklist includes five important aspects. The first, and most important one, is
Vaccination and immunization. The Kenyan Government says I can’t enter the country
without proof that I got a vaccine against the yellow fever. I also need to check that I have all
the common vaccines (the ones you usually get as a child). For that reason, I have to visit the
doctor to check my record and plan a vaccination schedule (in case I need it) at least three
months before my departure.

The second point on my list is the arrival. The hotel is not close to the airport so I need to
arrange a meet-and-greet service. The people from the hotel can pick me up at The Jomo
Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi. I have to speak with them soon to let them know
about my time of arrival and flight number.

In addition, I need to make sure I have the appropriate clothing for Africa. Kenya is a tropical
country so days are hot and there is a lot of humidity. For that reason, I need to buy several
T-shirts and shorts for the hot weather. There are quite a lot of mosquitos in Kenya too. I
need to get a mosquito net and an insect repellent to take with me at all times.
The fourth point on my list is money. The official currency in Kenya is the Kenya Shilling.
Although there are several ATMs in the country now, I need to make sure I have enough cash
with me in case I don’t find one. To exchange money, it is good to have dollars or euros so I
need to buy some before my trip. I can pay for the hotel and buy souvenirs with a credit card
so I have to call my bank to authorize the use of my credits cards in Kenya. An extra task is to
find out about the Shilling: its coin and bill denominations and to familiarize with them.

Finally, there is one important thing to consider. That is the contact with animals during the
Safari. I cannot interfere with their natural behavior. It can be very dangerous. Also, I have to
consult my guide before getting out of the vehicles. There are usually lots of wild animals
around and it is better to prevent attacks.
That’s all friends. See you in Africa!
Mary
