not really /out/ but i do love the idea of living in a small village in rural england. high adventures in the english countryside, with only a pack of hard cheese and bread, a small dagger and your boots. i wanna live on a small farm

>>1002293
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.

>>1002281 Fellow Snufkin here. Still one of my favourite characters.

>>1002378
>where the red fern grows
The world that kid lived in sounded comfy, but god damn I hated reading that book...

Living alone on a tropical island, only your faithful doggo to keep you company was pretty comfy to read about.

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 love Snufkin as well. I have great memories from The Moomins. I used to go into the woods, listen to the birds and imagine Snufkin was around somewhere. Honestly some of my favorite memories.

>>1002424
never read "Old yeller" but fuck me, the death of that dog made me so sad.

Anyboty here fuck with Foxfire books? Not extactly on topic but those were my jam when I was like 10-11

Where's a god place to watch Snufkin on the internet these days? Bonus points for free.

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 :)

>>1002379
I may or may not have briefly run away from home after reading this.

I don't think I'll be able to, it seems we're in entirely different timezones. I wouldn't mind watching comfy cartoons with a fellow anon, but I don't have the endurance to stay up until 4 AM.
Hope you find someone else to watch with though.

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.

>Living alone on a tropical island, only your faithful negro to keep you company was pretty comfy to read about.

>>1005253
yet another on the list of my favorites from adolescence . idk if it was comfy but good story for kids

>stare at sun too long

>not to worry, good thing this handy negro is here to keep me alive
>blindness makes me forget i was ever scared of this black man, racial barrier eliminated, all people are equal

>niggers are black again, oh well

Vice did a story on "the legend of cambo" a while ago, apparently the dude lived in the Alabama woods for 2 years.
Guy was pretty much the epitome of /out/
(this was when vice was still primarily on youtube and not mainstream so don't call me a degenerate)

>>1005563
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.

>>1004423
Yes.

>>1002298
Man I remember this shit from years ago, need to read the redwall series again

>>1004247
I did too, Anon. Or I almost did. I told my sister my plans after I'd been working on them for actual weeks, then she goes and steals my thunder by "running away" that very same afternoon.

>>1005253
They made us read this in school. I ended up buying my own copy to re-read over summer break, along with My Side of the Mountain, Hatchet, Heidi, and a bunch of other elementary school favorites.

>>1005695
I'm starting to really hate NatGeo for shoving all this survivalist/"off the grid" crap down our throats, but I will admit it does make me long for a better life. Also been watching Varg's Youtube videos, they're surprisingly comfy.

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 remember being made to read these in 4th grade, but me and my friends would share Calvin and Hobbes collections and read them under our desks. Those were pretty /out/ and cozy.

>>1002379
hells yeah

>>1002379
Holy fuck, this shit was so goddamn comfy. Glad I wasn't the only kid who read this.

Hatchet is the book that got me into being /out/, honestly. And I loved the boy scouts but the rules and camping with older Scoutmasters and 10+ other people means that I never truly got to experience the woods. Pic related

Always loved walking/hiking around where I grew up as a kid, but this book made me want to really see other areas more than I already did.

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.
