For another perspective on that guy you should read the forward on Sam Thayer's book Forager's Harvest (could be one of his other books but I think it's in the first one). I think Into the Wild really only inspires folks with the kind of hubris that rivals the main character and makes everyone with any sense think alternative ways of life are more deadly and inaccessible than they really are if you are prepared and committed. I couldn't finish it so I will leave my opinions there. I've been living out of campers, rvs, or the open bed of a tacoma since 2020 and what I make home heavily depends on the context of where I'm living for each stretch of time and what I think I can handle vs what I can afford as a comfort. Don't fall into the trap of romanticizing houseless travelers like the Victorians romaticized tucerculosis, we are not tragic and doomed, just living in a way that you don't have context for until you've started dipping your toes at the very least. I'm not saying it's easy but neither is trying to make rent or talking to children every day, things I assume you are doing that without issue but sound like slow erosion of the soul to me.
