I'm going to an uninhabited island and I'm taking with me…

Just a moment about that whole Expedition Robinson registration huh. “Look, imagine, imagine you are one of the four Dutch people who are chosen after the casting day to participate in the program. What would you actually take to that island?” We just talked about it here at the office and immediately the Kiki-Panic mode kicked in. What the heck would I actually take?
You should know that I practically roll in every day with a suitcase behind me because I just always have too much stuff. Go away for three days with me and I show up with my big white Delsey unit (check her here out for a moment). Yes, I know, it's downright embarrassing, but I can't make it any different. Every person has their talents and minimalism is not, uh, one of mine. Everything goes three times over the top (preferably with a backflip at the end), or not.

Everything goes three times over the top

If we look at the packing list for the candidates of Expedition Robinson, I can be brief about it. That list is short. Very short. Two sets of swimwear, a pair of shorts, a T-shirt, a pair of long pants, and a sweater. That’s about it. Holy moly. Don’t you know how FUN that one T-shirt has to be? You have to think about it. It shouldn’t be too busy, that will get boring after a month of television. Not too white maybe, because it will get dirty. Not too black, because maybe that’s too warm. Besides, I immediately wonder WHAT kind of shoes I will take. Those shoes, yes, that’s going to be a thing. Are there really cool flip-flops? Shoes that are waterproof and still a bit fashionable? Man, it’s still tricky to fill such a small backpack. And yet we’re going to try. I'm going to an uninhabited island and I'm taking with me…

2 bikinis

Seems clear to me: 1 super cool piece (probably something nice from Zoe Karssen with a banana or sushi or something, oh no, then we’ll get hungry) and a more basic bikini to wash in the sea. 2 bikinis. See? I got this shit.

T-shirt

Doubt doubt doubt… okay, I’m decided. If it’s allowed, a striped shirt (probably not handy because of television) and otherwise you really go for the best basics at Acne or Alexander Wang. This I think it's a nice piece.

Shorts

Nike has very nice sports shorts that are a bit wider at the bottom. And hello, wider = slimmer so we need that. Although too wide is of course also a bad idea with all the possible kilos you’re going to lose.

Hosternokke cap?

Nah, I'm not really a cap person. But something like a hat against the sun could be handy. I think it could be a simple H&M one.

Shoes

Teva’s? Havainas? Sports shoes? I’m still not sure. Can I have a wildcard?

OKAY OKAY JOKE.

Dear Amayzers, I am still in the top 10 right now (and today also in De Telegraaf with an interview, hooray!), but I still need your help. Haven't voted yet? Takes 20 seconds of your time and can here. On to that island!
