A REMINDER WITH A JOB

Future you needs a nudge.

Prep in daylight and keep the fake blackout short enough for a calm meal.

Never use grills, camp stoves or generators indoors. Keep refrigeration working and use battery lights around food prep.

Choose a reminder that gives you time to gather supplies and prepare. The calendar task starts at 9 AM in your calendar’s time zone. Alerts work after you import the download; OTL does not monitor live prices, weather, or availability.

REAL PEOPLE. REAL RECEIPTS.

“I actually did this.”

Photos, real spending and the detail someone wishes they had known. Reports are submitted by explorers; OTL has not verified their bookings.
