Do you have any recommended reading (maybe even something you wrote yourself) about what it's like to live like that?

- mwattsun 4y agoI have written anything because it's hard to describe. I'm sort of working on it. As for books, I didn't think I had any but just realized I went through a phase where I read nothing but Arctic and Antarctic exploration books. I related to the extremes we find ourselves in and the fear we feel when we realize there is no hope of rescue should something go wrong and it seems highly likely something will go wrong. This one is my favorite: The Worst Journey in the World https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Worst_Journey_in_the_World https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Worst_Journey_in_the_World But I'd be remiss if I didn't also mention Shackleton's amazing expeditions
