Is the US survival manual included in the sticky a good way to begin to learn survival tactics?
I'm assuming yes, but beginner survival general anyway.
Saving up and training until the end of college so I can go visit my step-sister in rural China. I have a bit of an obsession with the scenery in rural China and Tibet.
Getting Mandarin lessons from my step-mother as well, aim to be proficient enough by that stage to speak a decent amount of pinyin.

With this in mind, where do I begin?
