A few months ago i started reading this book called The Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac. It was a really interesting but but kinda hard to get into, sometimes i would have to read a page over again because i forgot what i read. I never finished the book but that part that i did read was really interesting. It about the author and his friend looking for Buddhist truth and have some random experiences and adventure in California. Some of the ideas and thoughts brought up in the book were quiet enlightening. To be honest it's been long enough that i can't remember much of it but it was good. The author mainly backpacked, train hoping and hitchhiking to get around. In some ways this book is a little similar to Chris McCandless's adventure, at least the earlier stages of it, not the Alaska part.
