With this weight does the general consensus of 32C still stand?
Smooth road, yes, could go narrower. If I recall correctly, you will be traveling in places with very poor roads, if so I would go wider.

Your total weight of rider and bike and gear is lighter than my weight and unladen bike. Thus, you have many options.
