JULIE BERRY: Whoa, a lot.Survivorwas eons ago.
It’s been humbling and remarkable… the biggest game-changer thus far.
What is your proudest moment ever from playingSurvivor?
I’m diggin' how this questionnaire is having [me] look back.
It’s been a while.
Proud to have had such a unique experience, proud to have had such an adventure…
Proud to have laughed and love along the way.
People often ask me ifSurvivorwas what inspired me to travel solo.
The truth is that I’ve always had a thirst for banking peak experiences in life.
At the time of being cast forSurvivor,I had been accepted into the Peace Corps…
I was just ready to jump into adventure.
I’m never going to see enough of this world.
What is your biggest regret from yourSurvivorexperience?
Regrets are for the wise in reflection.
At the time, I legit did my best!
I was so young, I was finding my voice, I was unknowingly healing parts of my heart…
If I look back, was I ever really trying to “win?”
I was more invested in the daily adventure than actually winning.
But for the sake of the question… How do you feel about the edit you got on the show?
Being onSurvivorisn’t about what you end up watching months later, it’s the real live experience.
What was it like coming back to regular society after being out there?
Was there culture shock or an adjustment coming back?
I couldn’t believe all the excess of daily life.
Why are there so many products in the shower?
How on earth do we keep animals captive inside?
Why are we so insular within our families and community?
It’s so strange we stay inside most of the day!
Holy s—, there is endless cereal to eat!?

Who’s one player from anotherSurvivorseason you wish you could have played with or against and why?
