So, I'm a pretty green newbie to all this prepper stuff. I've got leather-working as an occasional hobby but no other usable skills that I could truly value in the event of something catastrophic happening.
Here's how things stand right now. I live on the Northwest coast in BC Canada. The only thing people here seem to worry about is gas ($1.49 per liter) and what may happen if there is a serious earthquake on the San Andreas fault. I have an earthquake kit that I upgraded a few weeks ago (originally only had 2 blankets, 3 tins of food and a roll of toilet paper) and I have now accumulated 2 full bins of supplies. This is only for an earthquake. I personally think that something worse will happen than a quake and was wondering where to start when it comes to supplies and usable skills. I grew up in a small village in Wales so I didn't grow up with hunting or with guns and knives. I haven't had any experience with camping since my family was poor when I was growing up and couldn't afford it. Now I live in the Vancouver area and it's become incredibly populated. I'm at a loss at where to start with my prepping. I could use all the help I could get for when SHTF.
