 is a contestant from Survivor: Curaçao - Nightmare Island.

Profile
Name(Age)- Evalyn Swanson, 40

Occupation- Children’s author

Current Residence- Richmond, Virginia

Tribe Designation-

Claim to fame- Writing a children’s book. I’ve always loved reading, so writing a book has been on my bucket list. I decided to write a picture book for children because I have plenty of practice reading children’s books with my 3 daughters.

Hobbies- writing, cooking, and taking walks. Pet Peeves- Lying. Lying is the worst thing you can ever do to ruin your reputation. There’s no way in one million years I’ll ever work with a lying bastard.

Inspiration in life- My father. My father is one of the most amazing and respectable people I’ve ever met. He taught me all the virtues I still apply today and that I taught my children.

Three things you would bring on the island and why-

1. A notebook. I’m currently working on my third children’s book about a pet chicken getting into some mischief. My children make fun of me for using a notebook instead of a tablet. I guess I’m old-school!

2. A tarp. I’m not looking forward to sleeping in the rain.

3. A candle. I’m sure everyone will smell terrible after they haven’t taken any baths.

Reason for being on Survivor- I’ve been through stress and anxiety lately because of publishers and other related things. My children, husband, and I agreed coming on the show I love would relieve me of stress.

Why will you be the Sole Survivor- I’ll be respected. No one will get rid of me because they know I’m down to earth and trustworthy.
