Wild camping solo in Turkey for 1 month as a 27yo female

I have been thinking about self-defence stuff, and i think im good with the resources i have. I just want to double check if you guys find flaws in my thinking or if you can think something easy to add. Im thinking about buying a knife, once i get there, but it would suck to toss it everytime i plan on travelling via plane.

For moving around:

  • i carry sand in my fannypack in a tube. If i would get robbed: i would put my hands up, pretend to give him/her a wallet, but instead throwing coarse sand with chili pepper on attackers face and run away.

-i have heavy steel waterbottle that can 100% kill a man if being hit with it in the head. Will be carrying this with me.

  • i made a swing tool with heavy lock and fishing line (you basically cannot grap /see the fishing line when swinging) and if the attacker manages to grab it, the lock would still hit te attacker hand or other.

  • i have a rapewhisle that i always have (even in my sleep)

  • no flipflops, only shoes that i can run with them.

Camping:

If possible, i'll do a trip wire around my sleeping area with bells -> attacker falls + bells ring -> i wake up, i whisle and get the heck out.

I'll be sleeping in a hammock and inside mosquito net, i'll hang a cutter (the kind you use to open packages) on my net, so i can just rip open the net for easy exit.

And of course: i won't look like a tourist or a camper. I'm a minimalist camper so i'm carrying everything inside normal-looking school backpack. I also practice basic; don't go to sckethy places or travel during the night or draw attentition to me.

Thoughts?
