Greetings to the stp community. Just another noob here starting out my journey in strange times. I have been lurking this forum and others for a while and finally decided to get involved. Next week, I will be starting my first hopping adventure. Hopefully, I will be able to make it to Vancouver...

Ahoy, names Rory. Or frig, whatever works. Never really been the wandering type, but I'm getting sick of the "normal" life of slaving to make someone else rich. Recently developed some back problems and have a rod in my left leg from knee to ankle, so I'm not exactly agile anymore and its kept...

As a resident of Alberta under a reactionary gov't which has enacted savage cuts to public service funding, I am deeply interested in taking direct action, the kind that makes suits quiver (also the positive, uplifting stuff such as starting a food collective, etc.). Yet, to publicly announce a...

Hey everyone just looking to make more connections across Canada with other travellers and anyone really who enjoys a good adventure and weird / unorthodox experiences

Hey you crazy humans! I'm Donald! The Jamboree was my first time meeting up with people on the road and I couldn't have asked for a better introduction! I'm from Canada, Ottawa to be precise. That's just a bit North of New York and Vermont. It gets fucking cold up there for the Winter months...

With a few catches, of course. IMAGE 1 OF 59 The Farmer's Daughter Country Market is offering land and a job to anyone willing to relocate. Of course, there are a few catches, but the near-paradise location might be worth it. >>KEEP CLICKING TO SEE MORE ... more Cape Breton is a small...

It makes me wonder how often stuff like this really happens. I've got this sense of justice that says that the cops involved in shit like this should acquire the charges they tried to pin on somebody else (as a minimum). On any offense resulting in arrest, they get human rights...

It was early in the morning, and I probably looked terrible. You were jamming out on your violin and spreading your beautiful voice all throughout that awesome underpass of rainbow lights and art and tourists and good vibes, and you were stompin' away and causing a scene and all I could do was...

This sounds rather cool. Found this on a site while hunting down a couple of incidents where McDonald's would not let a person in the store buy food for someone who looked homeless. jerks. Anyway this is cool. the vid is quite interesting as well. LOL at the bottom - I was looking for more...

Hi all, I'm a Canadian Press reporter working on an article about the Canadian vagabond/hobo community and am looking to speak with Canadian travellers who train hop, hitch or ride share to get around while also using social media or sites like STP. If you're interested in chatting about your...

Hey, here is a link to the hitchhiking section of "fight your tickets".ca. it looks like the page hasn't been updated since Jan 2010, but the site is still active, and the hitchhiking page has links to the applicable government websites, and they're about as current as you would need...

Hey guys, I'm tentatively planning on couch surfing with friends in Seattle for a few months if I can't find work in Vancouver BC, (where I'm from) but I don't want to be a freeloader, and was wondering how difficult it would be to find work as a white, middle-class-appearing woman (and more...

She had dyed red hair and a boston terrier and a huge brown doberman mix

I hitched across from BC to Ontario in December and am basically looking for something to do other than drink and get stoned all day. Travelling with a girl and a dog, we both play music and generally are down for anything. Anyone else in Ontario or pretty much anywhere in Canada give me a shout...

I searched all through this website and did not find any thing about trackside guide or other rail way books. Does any one use either trackside guide, or the US one "cant find the title. If so any real comments on it. It list all the mile markers, stations, wheel detector, axil count detectors...
