Hello Friends

Postby nickparis » Mon Jan 31, 2011 7:30 pm

Hi, My name is Nick and i live in Surrey, England... the story of Chris Mccandless resonated with me so much it has had a profound effect on my outlook on like and for that i am gratefull to him and his story.

To cut a long story short i would like to make a trip out to Alaska and to Bus 142 to pay my respects and to see the surrounding area in which Chris chose to spend a very significant part of his life.

If there are any groups planning a trip in 2011 or 2012 i would be very happy to come along if you would have me.

Im not sure why i feel so compelled to travel half way round the world to visit this place but im sure many of you can understand the feeling.

i would be really pleased to hear from any of you...

Best regards,

Nick.

Thanks ellisd and bobenns,

Are you travelling alone ellisd or as part of a group, or are you chosing to do this by youreself?

I had wanted to do this on my own and experience the solitude but the obvious dangers of trekking alone is the reason i am looking for a group to travel with...

best,

Nick

Hi all,

I just wanted to reingnite my post as it seems to get lost when new posts arrive on the board...

I am really interested in planning a trip to the Bus in 2011 or 2012...

I will be travelling from London, England and would like to find others who would like to join a trip as im not keen on making the entire journey alone.

God bless all...
