AWould you rather be stuck on a mountaintop or a deserted island?

I choose island. Here I can hide from all the heat during the day under the trees, I can go fishing, picking exotic fruits. I do like mountains, but from my point of view there are more dangers. The cold weather during the nigh, the wild animals, I can easily harm myself. ... See More
