Sleeping bag, toiletries, etc?
Also, do you folks provide free food three meals a day? And if so, do you provide vegan options? Or do I need to bring money for food?
A generator
I would bring a warm sleeping bag and matt. Plus some toilettries n some warm clothes. I wouldnt bring too much of anything as it will likely get wet. When I went down there Wed afternoon, I saw boxes of toiletries coming in and a bunch of cooked food. Be sure you keep enough emergency $ on you to get a meal if needed and to get home safely when you're ready. In NYC never carry a big bunch of cash as you will become a target. Hate to say it but a bank card would be safest lol.
Also, get one of those thin little wallets that hang around your neck that you put inside your clothing. Keep your ID credit card and some cash in there. Always keep wallets out of site and hidden on your body in NYC. Grew up there n never got robbed in 30 years. Knock wood!
Can someone please provide a serious answer?
Seriously though, what would be a suggested packing list for someone who lives six hours away, hopes to stay indefinitely, and is vegan? Thanks for your answers!
