3 Words to Describe You: Descriptive, Observing, Caring

If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be? My literature books, I wish my son can be here, and also my husband's photo, he passed a few years ago and I would like to share my journey to him...

Survivor Contestant You Are Most Like: I am going to say I am a version of Tina Wesson, because I am caring to others and I don't really feel like backstabbing behind people.

Reason for Being on Survivor: To enjoy this experience with my daughter, we both liked watching this show, and the moment I heard there is a Blood vs Water season coming up, I just had to immediately give it a go.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I am pretty strong-willed, so I am confident that I will be able to survive the mental challenge that I face out here in survivor.

What Does It Mean to You to Play "Survivor" with Your Loved One?: I have been close with my son and daughter, and having the person I love on the island with me changes everything a lot when seeing the person you love with you, it motivates you a lot to do the best for the both of them, and I think after my husband passed, having my daughter here would be nice for me to bond more with her.
