    What do you prefer?

    Im not sure why, but I prefer to wear cotton, to any other type of material. If it is hot out, I will wear a light colored cotton. The bamboo clothes make me itchy and is uncomfy, in my opinion. I have known others to love it though.

    Do you know how to swim?

    I have known how to swim since I was a young child. I will also be teaching my children how to swim very soon. I feel that it is a life skill and everyone should know how, for safety reasons.

    Sweet Energy Source

    Granola bars or chocolate covered almonds are a option. Both of them contain protein, sugars, and carbs which is what your body fuels on. I would suggest bringing some along. Thats what I grab for us, then of course for the kids to snack on too.

    Have you ever willingly eaten insects?

    I have never willingly ate an insect. I do know that in some parts of the world it's a normal part of their eating habits. All kinds of worms and bugs are eaten daily there, I find it facinating. I wouldn't be able to stomach it though.

    Do You Worry About Creatures in The Water?

    Yes. Where I live there is always snakes in the water. I can't count how many times I have went swimming in the lake, and turned around to see a snake right by me, swimming less than a foot away from my body. Talk about a heart attack. Otherwise, I even freak out when I feel a fish touch my feet.

    Water Filtration System?

    You could always look into purchasing a Brita water pitcher. You put water in the jug and it has a filteration system in it. I love ours and we use it daily at home. Soho Water Pitcher with Filter | Brita®
