    Gullivar’s drunk he mentions the “good soda” aka wine.

    While it isn’t possible to help Gullivar on a friend’s island, if you have multiple residents living on the same island, they can each help Gullivar, and subsequently each receive a gift in the mail the next day. Unfortunately it will still only reward one rusty part, but it’s a great way to farm for specific rewards, especially if you’d prefer to not time travel.
