Why do you want to make your holiday/journey depend on a material thing? Just a rumor bis... look he...

Re: Did Chris hate people?
I think he just wanted to get away from things...His idea was simple and pure, I guess. I also like the feeling of getting away, form the place I live and people I know throuth I dont hate them at all. I fully agree, as I also know this kind of feeling or need. However for Chris it certainly had so...

Re: Dear All
I don't really understand why you want to write your own travel story in a McCandless-forum instead of opening an own site for it (with mentioning the link here for people who are interested), as you already said that you do NOT want to copy McCandless or so (would not be wise anyway). However wish ...

Re: Christopher McCandless Memorial Fund
Actually I think I have not really understood what this foundation is about.
After all that we know about his story, wouldn't "Chris's purpose" rather be something like warning parents not to lie to their children?

Re: Sharing Happiness with those that can share it too...
"HAPPINESS IS ONLY REAL WHEN SHARED" Possible meanings ? There is only one possible meaning to the statement, the obvious one - you can't be happy on your own. The veracity of the statement itself is debatable, ... I have been thinking about this statement pretty much as well, after seein...
