Chris, however, didn't expect to learn as much as he did and firmly believed he could only find happiness in solitude.

At one point we see him burying them as his way of leaving behind his old life, alongside his "rebirth". This doesn't last very long though as we see him come back before he goes to Alaska. Its Ironic and a theme in that although he states he hates his old life, he still somehow cannot let it go, beyond running away.]]> 2021-08-13 01:30:52 UTC https://padlet.com/turtz11_/vctshxuufdcx4ez9/wish/1677560374 turtz11_ https://padlet.com/turtz11_/vctshxuufdcx4ez9/wish/1677562190 Carine "[Chris] could summon [authors] words to suit any occasion" and uses the words as if they were his own.

E.g. He illegally sailed down the river, jumped a border and had very little equipment or knowledge of how to survive in Alaska, Which inevitably led to his death.  The equipment he did have was given to him out of generosity.
Robyn on the other hand set out on her journey to learn, and prove to herself that she could, she focused more heavily on the journey, even eventually bending to the decision of the natural geographic photographer to take more time and value the journey and thus nearly the first half of the book is Robyn's preparation, preparing camels, learning survival techniques and thus valuing her survival far more significantly than Chris.]]> 2021-08-13 01:34:09 UTC https://padlet.com/turtz11_/vctshxuufdcx4ez9/wish/1677563968 turtz11_ https://padlet.com/turtz11_/vctshxuufdcx4ez9/wish/1677567519 ITW - Belt (symbolising that he was starving as he has to gouge new holes in his belt.
