Are there Christopher McCandless' out there?

Postby butterflyxx » Mon Dec 20, 2010 4:41 pm

Does anyone feel like everyone they encounter is the same?! I don't think I have met anyone in my existence that shares the ideals or the lifestyle that Chris. I just feel at odds with the rest of society, like a bit of an outcast! I wish there were more of us out there. I think that's what has drawn me to this forum, a chance to talk to like-minded people, that share the same ideals and don't just cast you off as eccentric/crazy :D So hello everyone!!

Hi butterflyxx,
you are neither eccentric or crazy. What i have experienced with talking to people about living in the wild is their fear.

Hi,
I'm going to do the same - I hope I will fulfill my dream :) I'm from Poland and for the beginning I will also start in Europe. I want to start maybe in October, so I will moving south becouse of a Winter :) And I will see what life will bring, where will put me. I have some plans, but I don't want to close myself for what can life bring.
Now I'm searching and reading practical advices - that's how I got here - also after watching the film and reading the book. In Chris I saw so intensive simmilarity to me.. that was unbelieveble :)
I will be thankfull for any advices. Cheers!
