The story of Christopher McCandless has truly changed my life. After reading the book and watching the film I have fallen in love with his character, his strength and determination. However I feel like this infatuation is wrong, that I have no right to his personal life and story the way I do. It fe...

How can you avoid the danger, is there a safer place to cross even if it would be time consumin...
