Transcendental Journey
Ryan Peot's
Why a Journey?
Chris McCandless set out on a vast journey across the United States in order to find his inner self. His transcendental journey has encouraged me to go out on my own journey, a journey to find out the true meaning of living and what is like to live off natural resources. On my trip to the western part of the United States (Idaho, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming) I hope to find my true self. By obtaining food and doing everything with little help from modern technologies. I plan on going with only one other person, this person would be my father because he has always wanted to take on an experience and challenge like the one in front of us. Plus his knowledge of the outdoors will help substantially in survival.
