Desiree and I watched a couple of episodes of Naked and Afraid. In one, the male survivalist tapped out after only three days of the 21-day challenge, leaving a young woman on her own. Thankfully, she thrived and made it to extraction day.
Desiree
and I discussed what it would take for us to make it past three days. For me,
survival would hinge on two non-negotiables: footwear and coffee. I would need
to fashion a respectable pair of shoes out of bark or hide, and then, somehow,
locate a coffee bush in whatever uncooperative corner of the planet I’d been
dropped into.
Desiree’s
requirements are, if anything, more exacting. She would need to successfully
forage and assemble all the necessary ingredients to prepare a proper dish of
pancit noodles.
We
have our needs.
