So You're Stranded on a Small Desert Island...
I love top five lists! Last night I was out with some friends, having a late night snack at a local cafe. We started talking about if we could only listen to 5 bands for the rest of our lives what bands would they be? Which got me thinking, if I was stranded on a small desert island, what would I want with me. Assuming that there is access to fresh water, and that you have basic survival knowledge enough to seek/build appropriate shelter.
- A solar panel/battery array. I want this for several reasons, which will become very clear with my next item.
- An mp3 player/tablet or similar device to listen to my music/read books.
- A fire starter. Fire is life, and food needs to be cooked.
- A space blanket. Warmth is also important and it gets cold in the desert at night.
- Bug Net. While I personally am not susceptible to malaria, contracting Zika or some other horrible blood borne illness while alone sounds awful.
I am largely an introvert which is why I literally don't care if I ever get off the island. A few decades of solitude sound really good actually! As long as I can read, and listen to music, I will be perfectly content.
Let me know what 5 things you would absolutely want to have if you were stranded on a small desert island in the comments!
Great list! (I want to come with you, though!)
Ok first and foremost Welcome to the community...let the madness begin.
I was messaged by @alexiapbullard who told me you joined Steemit.
I checked out your introduction post and you nailed it except in one area...the tags.
You might want to re-write your introductory post for this lone reason...
Yor first tag is the most important and can never be misspelled.. so if you had put (introduceyourself as your very 1st tag) I gaurantee you would have recieved many more upvotes and $$$ it's never to late to do another one becuase you just started... I screwed up on my introductory post so just passing along some experience...
Hope to see more of your posts.

Oh Btw I used to live in Seattle (Snohomish) just moved to Cancun in March :-)
Flint & Steel (for fire)
Hunting Weapon (for food and protection) You never know when pirates might attack
Medicinal Kit and a great one. ( Like Dr.house inside)
Tool Kit (Hammer ..Saws..Rope..Nails...Screws..Etc)
Since you said desert Island I'm assuming that there's no internet or contact with the outside world so....
A Beautiful Woman.... If I can't have that then I better have an inexhaustable supply of alcohol!
