Independent island dream

I was on my way to a remote island. The ship sank, only a few of us passengers survived to the island. It was a totally self-sufficient independent place, they even had their own electricity voltage. Electronic devices couldn't be charged on the mainland, only on the island.

The island was somehow situated in eastern Finland, still it had mangroves and river deltas, rain forests. Also the time passed differently on the island. I talked to a teenaged boy who rejoiced about the last free summer before starting school at the age of seven. He looked more like 17 than 7. I realized that the island would be a rare once-in-a-lifetime experience.
