I've been to Venezuela a couple of times and have friends there currently. I'd ask them how they are doing, except that we usually communicate over Skype and Hangouts... I believe they'll be alright though. The one family I know owns a farm on the side of a mountain, so plenty of food, and they get fresh water from a mountain stream, so no worries there. They use a bit of electricity, but don't really need it to live. The other one, the husband is a US citizen who does some occasional work online. He needs electricity, but he's told me before that he can get by on ~$130 a month, so he should be fine for a week.
