Points to Remember

Above suggestions/requests are made in respect to Dominican culture and the work of Doulos within that culture. You are most likely going to stand out/be noticed in this foreign culture.

A good rule of thumb for dress/decency is to think of (or back to) your high school dress code as a ref-erence point.

Be sure to keep simplicity in mind as you are filling up your suitcase.
