Friends who have seen Survival in the Wilderness must be familiar with Mr. Bei, an adventurer with strong wild survival ability, also known as "the man standing at the top of the food chain", who dares to eat anything!

Man vs. Wilderness, also known as Survival in the Wilderness, is a realistic TV program produced by the American Discovery Channel. It was hosted by British adventurer bear grylls. In each episode, he will go to dangerous wilderness places such as deserts, swamps, forests and canyons, trying to find his way back to civilized society in extremely harsh environment. Beye is the leader of the field survival plan. Many outdoor lovers regard Grandpa Eight as an idol and learn a lot from his wild life.

However, the program is a program after all. Although Mr. Bei is tough, he still has the support of the team, and the safety is guaranteed ~

But today, we are going to talk about an amazing woman. She is Lanswood, known as "Mrs. Beye"!

Miriam Lanswood (Netherlands)

Lanswood, 33, is Dutch, and her lover Peter, 63, is from New Zealand. They bid farewell to the superior city life and lived in the wilderness of New Zealand for more than seven years.

After a period of field survival training, they set off from a place in the South Island on 20 10, where they spent the whole winter, working at sunrise, sleeping at sunset, sleeping for more than ten hours a day, and often being frozen awake. 20 10 The first animal Langwood caught was a mouse. Later, she shot the first goat with a bow and arrow. She said: "At that time, I felt terrible. I cried, but now I am more proud."

Living in the wilderness of New Zealand, Lanswood gained a lot of understanding. The deepest understanding is:

"Compared with this world, we are small and insignificant. There is a wall between stability and freedom, and this wall is "fear". Living in the wild can make you face the hidden part of your consciousness seriously. If you want to live freely, you need to learn to embrace instability and bravely enter the unknown world. "

Freedom is priceless.

I'm very nervous. Feeling my cheeks burning, I kept trying to cool it down with the back of my hand, but with little effect. Getting closer and closer to that door, I kept rehearsing what I was going to say in my mind. In the past year, my manager Virginia and I have gradually changed from colleagues to friends, and I don't want to let her down. I knocked on the door.

"Please come in." Virginia is sitting at her desk, busy with a pile of papers and schedules, and occasionally looking at the computer. Her figure is slightly plump, with black hair hanging over her shoulders. This makes her, as a manager, have a stable atmosphere and not aggressive temperament.

"Sit down, miriam. How's it going? What did you come to me for? " She asked with a smile, putting a purple shawl on her back.

I picked up a stack of folders on the chair, put them on the other side of her desk and sat down. "Not bad, thank you!" I took a deep breath and said to her, "I'm really sorry, Ji, I'm going to resign." After another pause for a few seconds, I added, "I like this school and everything here very much, but I'm going to try something else." Having said that, I had to laugh awkwardly, because I had used up all the lines I had just rehearsed.

Lancewood practiced archery in the backyard before he left.

At first, Virginia's face was full of smiles. After a while, I noticed a little surprise in her eyes. She asked me, "Why? Miriam, where are you going to work next? " She held out her hand and laid it gently on me. Her shawl fell off again.

I replied, "I'm not going anywhere. I want to live in the jungle for a while. "

Virginia looked at me with an incredible face.

"Just go to the mountains and live in the Woods and nature." I added another sentence.

Virginia opened her mouth in surprise.

"Really? But ... why? " She asked.

Peter is making a fire with the driftwood he found.

I then said to her, "I think I can really feel alive only in the jungle." After hearing this, Virginia still looks a little confused. "I want to try and see if I can survive under such conditions and see if that kind of life can purify my body and mind." I said to her.

"I see. Then you will still come back from time to time? "

"Yes, our original plan was to stay in the mountains for three months at a time. Before going to the next destination, we will go back to the city to buy some necessities. " I explained, "We intend to stick to it for a whole year."

Lanswood is wading through.

This river originates from the glacier belt in the south of Canterbury.

"But how do you take a bath?"

Take a shower? For this sudden question, I didn't react at the moment. Without thinking much, I blurted out, "I washed it in the river."

"Wash in the river in winter?" There was a flicker of doubt on her face. "No, you have to come back once a month, at least in the physiological period. I am serious! " "

I can't help laughing. Virginia smiled when she saw me smile. I felt a thrill in my heart: this day has really come, and I am about to start a great adventure.

outdoor

The winter sunshine is warm, and I walk on the side of the ridge with my bow and arrow on my back, trying to shoot a wild goat. In the dense forest, every line further breaks through the obstacles of various vines and fallen trees. Walking slowly up the mountain, the trees began to become no longer as high as the mountain, and the wet dirt road covered with fallen leaves gradually became a stone road. The surface of the black rock was warmed by the sun, so I sat down and enjoyed everything around me. Peter and I will settle down in this beautiful valley and spend this long winter.

In the dead of winter morning in Marburg, the tent is as cold as icehouse.

There is no wind in the valley, everything is quiet, only the river is flowing freely. The far peak is covered with spotless white snow, which looks solemn and awe-inspiring. Everything in front of us constitutes a beautiful picture: the river is rushing and the mountains are quiet and harmonious.

I noticed that the rock above me was very flat and suitable for climbing. Maybe we can find traces of wild goats under these small hanging walls. They like to nest in warm, dry places with a wide view, and usually come back in the evening. I climbed up carefully to have a closer look.

Surrounded by snow and ice, I put on all my clothes to keep warm.

Finally, I climbed to an open area surrounded by low trees, but I couldn't even see the shadow of the goat. On second thought, looking down from this height, you should see the camp built at the foot of the mountain at a glance. It's in that long and narrow valley. I can even see Peter! Wearing a red pullover, he was swallowed up in the mountains and looked like a red dot from a distance. Although I kissed him before we parted this morning, it felt like I finally met human beings after living alone in the mountains for more than ten years.

Paparo's steep mountains are a national park on the west coast of South Island.

I was very excited and thought, look at me, Peter!

I saw him stand up. Maybe he's looking at the mountain? I'm not sure. So I got up, took off my coat and waved it hard to get his attention. A few seconds later, I saw him pick up a small mat and slowly waved it at me.

In an instant, tears welled up in my eyes. We waved to each other miles apart and felt each other's presence. I looked at the mountains and then at Peter:

They are both the love of my life.
