So I'm asking this question about a plan that's years away from being executed, but still gonna ask it.
In a few years time, I plan on getting a bike touring setup and doing long-term bike touring around Canada. I plan on going slowly, I have a big long list of places and things I wanna do. It'll take me a few years to complete it all.
I plan on getting a bike trailer instead of panniers because I'll be bringing along my camping/hiking/backpacking gear.
So, at least once, I'm gonna have to stop and winter somewhere along the way. I'm wondering where and how would be best way to do this?
I've lived in a homeless shelter before, but they usually don't accommodate gear like bikes and trailers. Assuming I have enough saved or find enough work, I could rent a small storage unit. Then winter in the shelter in the shelter I suppose.
I have doubts that I'll be able to find work and even a small apartment because of the housing crisis and insane rents in this country. I remember Ali saying that the best rent prices were in rural praries, so I could focus on that area.
I can do winter camping. I have the experience and equipment to do it. It might be hard finding a suitable site close enough to work or scrounge food though.
Anyone have any thoughts? Any ideas or recommendations?
