Tips for traveling to Afghanistan in July
Looking for some tips for traveling to the sun, snow, or whatever you're aiming for Afghanistan? Activities, weather, and clothing are closely linked. In addition, it's important to pack only what you really need so you don't have to worry about heavy packing or paying extra baggage fees.
Here is some advice on what to pack and what kind of activities you can do in the Afghanistan based on the weather that July is expected to bring. The advice applies to the country as a whole – local weather and possible activities may differ somewhat.
Pack right for July
- Sunshine does give you a nice color and a boost of vitamin D. However, if you don't have a lot of skin pigment, you should sunbathe carefully to avoid burning yourself, getting sun rash and, in the worst case scenario, skin cancer. This is where sunscreens and opaque clothing work particularly well. Another safe way is to stay in the shade when the sun burns the most, roughly between 9 am and 3 pm.
- Cool weather is between warm and cold. This means you can bring long pants and/or a longer skirt and an extra sweater. Be aware that cool days can alternate with cold nights - it may be wise to also pack a hat, gloves and a scarf.
- Light winds are probably most comfortable in hot weather but is cooling in cool and cold weather. If it is hot (when the air temperature is about 30 degrees), the wind can have a warming effect. A thin, windproof jacket and long trousers help to counteract these effects.
- Low humidity makes it easier to regulate the temperature closest to your body with the clothes you are wearing. You also won't sweat as much as with higher levels of humidity. However, very low humidity can lead to drier mucous membranes and irritated eyes - you might want to pack something for that.
