Gotta admit, i never knew about "The adventures of Tom Bombadil" until about 5 minutes ago.

I always loved him in Lotr and was bummed he got omitted from the movies. He's the true OG of middle earth.

When I was 10, I was genuinely depressed that I would never be a child of the woods that gets called on to save the world, encountering a whole slew of colorful characters and exotic locations, nothing but my backpack and my wits to keep me going. So, yeah, Link. Link was pretty cool.

The dead girlfriend aside, the idea of this huge land filled with all sorts of secret caves, swamps and ruins etc to explore with your horse friend sounds pretty good. Hunting lizards, foraging fruit and honing your archery skills.

I spent a lot of time in this game just exploring and bowhunting. Beautiful world.

I'm a big fan of Kino from Kino's Journey. She's very quiet and neutral, continually travelling on her talking motorbike having strange encounters on the road and absorbing the wierd nonsense philosophy culture of the people in the towns she passes through. The books are good, hit and miss at times but the good stuff is really good.

A lot of episodes are on Youtube, actually. I haven't found a full playlist, but you can find a decent amount of episodes just clicking around.
I think I'm going to make some tea and watch a few episodes right now :)

these books plus Tom Sawyer/Huck Finn and all of LotR shaped me into who I am today. That includes where the red fern grows (omg the tears). This is almost an exact list of my favorite books growing up, and I am pretty sure i have copies of all of them still 20 years later.

Vice did a story on "the legend of cambo" a while ago, apparently the dude lived in the Alabama woods for 2 years.

seen that dude before hes essentially a millennial hillbilly. Excellent sentiment but Im not a fan of the whole backwoods/swampman Alabama style, prefer the northern mountain man motif, but he is out there getting it so props.

also his persona is honestly how i picture about half of the /out/ user base.

The Swiss Family Robinson was one of my fave books when I was in elementary. Picked up Robinson Crusoe when I was in middle school, too. Heidi will always be my favorite, though. Living alone in the Swiss Alps with only a ton of goats and your crotchety granddad for company and healing cripples through the power of FRIENDSHIP, what more could a kid want?

I'm not sure how he painted such a vibrant landscape with so few words in some areas. Can't think of any other writer that did that as well as him.
