2. before you do, you might try reading "Into The Wild" as a chaser
I don't doubt it's possible, but it can be dangerous, too.

Jon Krakauer's book "Into the Wild" is a very interesting case-study on a young man who did pretty much what you are talking about. He had a lot of very interesting adventures. And eventually got himself killed.
