Now, you can find most things here. DO NOT attempt to bring food items...DON'T DO IT. You will find your teas, milk, noodles, rice, vegetables, laundry detergents, bathing and facial soap...anything you need can be found here at your local Panda (Think Walmart or ShopRite but BIGGER).
Packing clothing is tricky, if you are going to be in mixed company...prepare to always have your Abaya on. An Abaya is a long, flowy dress that every woman is expected to wear in public places (read:outside your house). If you can find an Abaya in your local markets, or if you can sew one...please go ahead and do this. You will not be allowed to leave the airport wearing your regular clothes. You do not want that kind of attention on you anyway. I will talk about Abayas in a later post.
Leave your above the knee skirts and sleeveless tops at home. Wearing those to the office will get you stared at. Pack these clothes, if you will be working in an all female environment with little male interaction.
Pack comfortable shoes, bring some of your heels to give life to your Abaya but take comfy shoes also.
Purses are a huge fashion statement. If you are a purse person...you will be in heaven here. Your purse gives life to the all black Abaya.
Pack the necessary things, everything else can be found here.
