Ok it is just hypothetical.
If you had a year alone on a Scottish Island in a small Croft, with unlimited firewood for your little stove, what would you pack? No internet or roaming data.
I’d bring dry pasta, tinned tuna, lentils, chickpeas, canned white cheese, olives, rice, tahini, Long life lemon juice and milk, coffee beans with a hand grinder, teabags, flour, yeast, jam and marmite. A case of white wine and a couple of bottles of gin. Mustang and cress seeds. Micro salad seeds and some kind of mini greenhouse. Mung beans to sprout along with the lentils. I’d hope to end the year a bit slimmer than it started without too much sugar.
I’d bring a couple of cases of good books, a mixture of classics and contemporary prize winning world literature. Reference books on etymology, flora and fauna, and the Encyclopaedia Brittanica. Oxford English Dictionary. I’d want to end up knowing more!
I’d bring thick blankets and a tent to camp around the island in the summer. Binoculars. A microscope.
Lots of paper, pens and a variety of art materials. Strong glue and card. I’d try crafting using natural materials found around the island.
A huge collection of music and something to listen to it on.
The comfiest bed and chair known to man.
A hundred jigsaw puzzles.
Body lotion and basic fitness equipment.
A mountain bike.
