Description
Christopher Johnson McCandless (12 February 1968 – 18 August 1992) was an American wanderer who with little food and little equipment, hiked into the Alaskan wilderness to live a life of solitude. Less than five months later he died of starvation near Denali National Park. In 1996, Jon Krakauer wrote a book about his life, Into the Wild, which inspired a 2007 film of the same name directed by Sean Penn and starring Emile Hirsch as McCandless.[link]
Ps. This photograph was a self portrait by chris taken outside the magic bus and found on the role of film after his death.

This man knew what happiness was... And was the only person in the world that felt the meaning of truly being free...
HE. LIVED. LIFE.
Something we all take for granted.

Do you know who is Robert Pattinson? Roberts face reminds me the character who played in the movie for some kind of reason

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.
Beautiful men
