      That's only useful with store bought coconuts. The ones she is eating are green with thick husk on the outside. She used the machete to cut the coconut out of the husk then cracked it to eat.

    Elayna, one of the things I admire most about you since finding your channel and following your journey, is that you are a very independent and humble person. As a woman myself, I personally wouldn't be able to filet a fish or put up sail on a boat. Heck I can't even swim. I haven't heard you complain once about doing your fair share and I love that Riley doesn't let up on you just because you are a girl. And I love how proudly he looks at you when you accomplish even the tiniest things. For you to stay over night by yourself on a deserted island full of bugs and God knows what else... I commend your strength and courage girl. Make no apologies to anyone. You are incredible and as a viewer and fan, I am proud of you. Sending love to you and Riley all the way from Seattle, Washington! ❤

    • @caddyking6843
      @caddyking6843 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Also, I think the lack of fins was a more realistic test. Think about it, when you're stranded, deserted, have an accident, are you able to pack? NO, you've got to use whatever you have on you or scavenge. You did great Eleyna! And I think you could have done three days there if you trained your mind more. I don't even think you called it off for your physical surroundings but more for your mental state. Or the book 1984 got to you.

    Awesome that you made a go at this venture. First hand experience of a taste of survival. What if you couldn't choose your island? And gear? Preparation is key. Maybe you can see application to the sailing too. Key to Hammock is making is more straight across, tighter. And in a place where rain would not be an issue. Getting wet and cold can kill you if long enough. Firewood is sometimes hard to find, keep and/or get it burning. Thanks for sharing this with us.

      You can also sleep on a diagonal and get a more flat lay!

      Definitely not tighter, she had it right but has to sleep diagonally. Those banana hammocks though make it difficult. With a proper hammock you will never have a better sleep.

      From what I'm hearing all hammocks are not equal, I based my statement on a US Navy canvas and rope hammock which was wonderful and it was relatively flat when hanging right

    The comfort for me was in knowing that this was something that you wanted to try to test yourself, and that Riley wasn't far off and could come to your rescue if needed. Obviously, you two are a great match and its wonderful to see how much you need each other and compliment each other. Great people do great things. Keep up the good work!

    Elayna: Don't sell yourself short-- survival situations are hardest on the mind and spirit long before the physical challenges set in. Being alone is a difficult learned skill that anyone with a military background and/or survival training can attest. The MOST important thing to maintain in a survival situation, even in a tropical paradise, is high morale and a motivated spirit. I'd say you had a pretty good first go at it, and your diving skills I think would have served you well if the situation truly demanded it.
    Chin up. It's not easy thing to do. Humans are social creatures, and being alone is not something we're wired for. You can always give it another go in the future. Read a few stories about men like US Air Force Captain Scott O'Grady, and the psychology of being alone. Semper fidelis from a former Marine in the States. Cheers.

    This started as my favorite episode is a long time. Really stoked you gave it a go, but a bit disappointment you didn't descend a little further into hunger and lack of comfort before bailing. I actually like that you went a bit under prepared. Really hope you try again! From my experience, it takes about a week to settle into a rhythm, so expect it to suck till then, and be awesome afterwards :))

    "You come home,
    and make some tea,
    sit down in your armchair,
    and all around there is silence.
    Everyone decides for themselves
    whether that's loneliness
    or freedom."

    • @desultorilypanacea

      You didn't set up your hammock correctly. Lots of videos on youtube telling how to do it properly. Check out stef roberts channel. He sleeps in a hammock every night.

    • @desultorilypanacea
      @desultorilypanacea 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      You know how to meditate and that's the perfect time to do it. When you're feeling lonely and isolated sit-down and practice. Yesterday I was very hungry before I started meditation and it went away during meditation. It was amazing to feel meditation release my hunger pains.

    Thirty days alone in the far Northern Wisconsin Forest. Got a little loopy, felt a little monk-like, and it was tough coming back into the world. I'd recommend it. Great video and good on you, Elayna!! Hey btw, you should do a video with pictures of you guys growing up. Would love to have some background about you guys!!! Rock on.

    Great episode Elayna. You did well for your first time taking on isolation! Don't knock yourself. It's not easy (as you discovered). I am glad you are open to the idea of doing it again because each adventure builds on the wisdom gained from the last one. As I've told my kids as they try new things (like learning to drive a car): "you weren't born knowing how to walk, you don't remember the number of times you fell down but you always got back up and now look at you (playing soccer, running jumping, dancing)". I found myself chuckling at the thought of Tom Hanks (Cast Away) coming 'round the corner and realizing he wasn't entirely alone on that deserted island! Riley might never have heard from you again! lol.

    This was one of your best. I can't help but like you two, and this brought you home to us. Alayna, you reminded me of my girls (You could have used my daughter Cat-survival expert on Nat Geo's--The Great Human Race.). I am always gladdened to see your posts. Both my wife and myself would rather watch you and Riley than network TV. Be well.
