Carol Plaxby

Carol Plaxby is a contestant from Survivor: Peru – The Inca Empire.

Profile
Carol Plaxby was born and raised in the outskirts of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Growing up in a naturalist Amish family, she lived in a community without modern technology, wore old-fashioned clothing, and her diet deprived the consumption of meat and packaged foods. After parochial school, she moved to the Mantua neighborhood of Philly during Rumspringa to liberate from limited standards of living. She then attended Holy Family University and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Human Development and Management.

Since renouncing her heritage, Plaxby has been a member of the Philadelphia County Homeowners Association, engaged children in story time at the local library, and written songs for local musicians. Secretary for a high-class real estate office, she is always on point answering questions and concerns of the firm's fastidious clientele. By resolving unyielding life choices and having an iron-stiff tenacity, she has led the main role of her own rags-to-riches story.

Plaxby's hobbies include bowling for strikes, house-hunting, browsing through books at the library, snacking on ice cream until a brain freeze, and watching feel-good movies at the theater. She describes herself as "a young pioneer with a classic sense of humor". Her biggest achievement in life is giving an honorable toast at her birth town's annual Thanksgiving festival. She thinks the biggest challenge in this competition is sleeping on uncomfortable surfaces. She believes the Sole Survivor title will go to her because she has experienced primitive living, is a hard-worker, and loves being underestimated. She wants to be on LEXX'S SURVIVOR to enjoy the natural beauty of the environment, learn to be a better cooperator, and win the $1 million to buy a new car, remodel her house, and spoil her boyfriend. For her beginning strategy, she wants to play a solid social game by forming an alliance of five to secure an early safety net.

Plaxby lives in Sanatoga and is dating her boyfriend Kent.
