Thank you. I thought about this sort of thing (net), but for her trip it's perhaps overkill. At some point she simply cannot lug too much gear.

I am suggesting she bring and use something like a Cocoon Travel sheet, treated with permethrin, for at least her overnights away from the host family. If it turns out that netting is advisable for some or all of her visit, I suspect she can easily purchase one in-country.

IMHO, an Egyptian Cotton or Silk-Cotton rectangular Travel sheet (or 2), treated with permethrin, would be a great item to pack and use on the trip. Ripstop Silk would be nice, too, but costs more.

Natural color seems to be a good bet.

I have not yet seen the suggested packing list so for now I have no idea if a sleeping bag will be needed for some portions of her visit. The sleeping sheet would be useful and a nice comfort item in all situations, I think. Stuffs very small and weighs very little.
