I'd be very tempted to leave everything beyond cash, >ID, and a passport at home. In this part of the world, a week or three is a vacation. This is 6 months of your life, away from friends, family, business/job, and everything else familiar. Plus, it's a pretty boring island. You can walk from one side to the other in a few hours. Of course you could go to neighboring islands and/or get to know the natives, but other than money that doesn't require much stuff brought with you. Maybe maps and other detailed information that can be found much more easily at home. Yes, that's a good train of thought you've set in motion. Thanks.
