You should include the following items so that you can signal for help:

SOS

an SOS sign made by you for this purpose;

light sticks that can provide illumination for 6 to 12 h and be used to signal for help in the dark;

a whistle to call for help with a sound that carries further than your voice;

a flashlight, preferably crank-powered, so that you don’t have to rely on a single source of energy.

You should include the following items for illumination:

candles;

a lighter and/or waterproof matches, which you can also use to light a fire;

flashlight.

You should include the following items for hydration and nutrition:

If you have no water, it is advisable not to eat, as this could increase dehydration!

a Swiss army knife;

a waterproof pouch for essential documents, such as ID papers, insurance policies, medical prescriptions, etc., and some money;
