A packed timetable makes you gasp for air; you come alive once you're outside. Like Huck, you're happier walking the river alone than in a crowd, and you trust a real heart over dressed-up words. But when a friend is in trouble, you're the first one at their side.

Things a Huckleberry Finn type often says

  • Let's head out. We'll think while we walk!
  • Don't those rules feel stuffy?
  • Don't worry, I'll come with you.

In a group, I'm

Free spirit with hidden loyalty

As a friend, I'm

The friend who quietly sets off with you when things get hard

When stressed

When it gets stuffy you go outside. A bit of wind and you come back like nothing happened.

Sound familiar, Huckleberry Finn type?

  • You'd rather walk the river alone than be in a crowd
  • You follow your care for a friend over the rules
  • Trips without a plan are the best
  • You trust what you've tried over fine words

Where you shine

  1. Survives anywhere

    On a raft or in a strange town, wherever you land, you quickly find a way to get by. When plans fall apart, you don't panic; you make a path right there.

  2. Zero pretending

    You trust real feelings over fancy words or saving face. If grown-up rules seem wrong, you notice, and you speak honestly instead of saying what people want to hear.

  3. Loyal to the bone

    You may prefer being alone, but when a friend is in trouble you're beside them first. Like Huck standing by Jim against the world, you keep faith.

Watch out for

When you want to vanish from chores

When things get stuffy or boring, you have a talent for slipping away and putting off what needs doing.

Try thisPromise yourself just ten minutes on the task you dread, and allow yourself to stop. Starting is the hardest part.

When promises feel light

Moving on impulse, you sometimes forget plans or times and leave friends waiting.

Try thisPut just the one promise that really matters in your phone alarm. Freedom and trust can travel together.

A famous scene

Huck and Jim drift down the Mississippi on their raft at night, lying under the stars and talking about how the stars came to be.

A line from the book

Other places do seem so cramped up and smothery, but a raft don't. You feel mighty free and easy and comfortable on a raft.
