The first time I read the books, I strongly identified with Frodo. Now, many years and several readings later, I identify with... Frodo. He loved his home but longed for adventure, fought for a noble purpose and was not afraid to defend his principles. He was fond of music and tales, enjoyed his friends but also his solitude, and sought to understand others. I too travel alone, sometimes with joy, often with sadness, but always eager to see what's round the next bend and to accomplish the task at hand.
