    Depending on where we landed, I would try to find my country's embassy, try to go to the nearest city (probably by asking people i encounter), or go to my family's country and visit while I'm there. I would just hope that if we're not in a city or town that we don't come across any lions, hyenas, or poisonous things.

    I can see non-African INFPs or INFPs who possess a stereotypical view of Africa assume that either the land is practically uninhabitated and we must learn to survive on our own or assume asking the only help Africans can extend to us is to teach us to hunt and gather, after all, isn't that the native way of life for Africans? In reality, any isolated groups of people living any sort of ancient lifestyle and who possess no knowledge of cities is rare in Africa. Hunting and gathering isn't the traditional way of life for all Africans, and in antiquity, many kingdoms, empires, city states, and powerful businesses flourished in Africa. Ancient buildings of knowledge (libraries, etc), wealth (tombs of royalty buried with their riches), among other remnants of a history that defies many stereotypes about Africa and Africans.

    Its interesting, that some people are really thrill about this idea. :) If I ever step in the plane full of strangely silent people holding books about survival, bodypainters and crossing fingers, i will run away like never before. :)

    I'd secretly decide which ones are the tastiest and compile a meal plan.

    Worried about being judged on your body-paint choices?

    Well, obviously this INFP-plane is landing in fantasy!Africa, not actual!Africa :P Which, you have to admit, is a pretty damn cool trick for an ordinary plane...

    This thread is making me want to look up some body painting ;)

    I think instead of Africa, I'd like to be stranded on a deserted tropical island. Sadly none of our clothes survived, so we'd all have to be nude. Unless there are very ugly, very fat old people. I'll swim to the nearest continent to get them some clothes...

    Alright maybe not, but there's some good posts here.
    Maybe all the INFPs want to go on a Safari and see tigers and elephants and giraffes up close, but not that close.

    In that case, after basic survival needs were met and mastered I would like to go off on a walkabout and see the nature and beauty of Africa. All are welcome.

    Assuming some of us would eventually attempt to interact with each other, we would plan to build a new society not based on superficial standards. Well, we'd plan to build a new society. We might get started on it eventually...
    Until then, we'd probably just wander peacefully and enjoy the nature. And hope this isn't a dream.

    I really want this to happen, guys...

    My travel agent didn't have any flights that would crash land in Africa.

    But I would be in favour of establishing a small INFP country.

    So the first night, we'd make a bonfire and share life stories. Then reality would sink in. This is where we form two camps. Those who will go for help, and take those who want to leave, and the ones who stay behind to form an INFP jungle commune.

    I will go for help, but only after securing a blood diamond the size of my fist so that I can use the funds to send support to the INFP jungle tribe. It will be like The Beach. I will only invite other INFPs to join, and it's word of mouth invitation only. Legends will be created about the peacefull tribe hidden deep in the jungle. It will be like Atlantis. The mythological city of peace love and harmony. It will be glorious!!!

    Oh also, I'd be really pumped to hunt a lion. Ohh, and to see INFP women in lioncloths like someone previously mentioned. Ohh, and to paint myself like a warrior tribesman. INFP in Africa would be a great success!!!
