Chris McCandless learned leather working from Ron Franz (Chap. 6) and created a belt, which symbolized his life, his year on the road, and his plans for the future. For this assignment, you will create your own Bio Belt. Draw pictures/use images to represent the most memorable moments (both good and bad) that you would want to put on your own hand-tooled belt. You can draw this and take a photo of it and upload the picture to Canvas. Include a single paragraph describing your belt and the events that happened in your life that have shaped who you are today and your future plans.
Chris is living a Transcendental lifestyle
Chris McCandless lives a very peaceful life on his journey and lets everything that occurs be unexpected. Supernatural beliefs indicate that one should live a friendly worry-free life to enjoy nature and the world around us truly.
The author tells us that Chris McCandless highlighted the following paragraph from the book Dr. Zhivago, perhaps illustrating what he learned: "And so it turned out to be the case that only a life that is similar to the life of those around us, merging with it without a ripple, is genuine life, and that unshared happiness is not happiness.
Ultimate freedom… No longer to be poisoned by civilization, he flees and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the Wild." Alaska was everything he had ever dreamed of. Chris McCandless finds an abandoned bus out in the tundra, makes it his home, hunts like a troglodyte, and lives off the land.
