While I’m not sure I would be friends with Cheryl in real life, I understand some of her mindset and (lack of) logical thinking. I have also been someone in their 20’s who lost a parent, no, their beacon, which set you in a path of bad choices endlessly reaching to be on the other side of lost. Unlike Cheryl, I did not decide to go (unprepared) on an a backpacking trip. Yes this is the story of said trip but it’s more the story of finding yourself where one might get lost.
