I voted for nothing. Being stranded alone on an island sounds like pure heaven, particularly in a warm climate.

I would miss good food, good wine, good vodka I'm a distance runner so I would feel kind of trapped, on an island, but could manage to run. However, one of the best parts of running is eating all the food, after Mostly I would miss my 2 daughters and my granddoggie!

I voted nothing because I really need to be on a desert island. I think it would be good for me. I'd just meditate.

I would miss all of the listed things, but I would miss certain friends/family the most. Not all, but some. My cats, by the way, are included in that. They are part of my family.

I think I would do fine on my own. Then again 10 days in I might start turning out like the guy in Castaway.

If I have my horse & dogs I would only miss the new friends I have made the last 11 years.

I would miss my smart phone I stay connected with my friends by once the battery died & couldn't be recharged but other than that.....it's just about getting survival techniques established in tje environment

I would miss all home comforts yes, but would aspire to build a boat, find a lagoon, marry a wood elf, and seek out a butterfly garden.

I checked "other." While I would miss creature comforts I would be lost without my furbabies.
