Wet terrain and long dark hours mean minor cuts and scrapes take longer to heal.
This country runs on Type G. Get one with USB-C so you're not fighting over the single outlet.
Eight and a half hours of daylight means you charge devices in the evening most days.
Set it up before you land. Signal drops for long stretches outside cities.

Coastal wind at 21 km/h and rain on half the days make quiet focus hard in hostels and stations.
