    Question I'm considering moving StP to a reddit-like open source software alternative; Thoughts?

    Ya, I hate the whole 'Karma' concept as well. But I try to actively ignore that. I just think the responses on that media platform are just more, i dunno...authentic? You can also choose what is thrown into your face, and can filter out all the political/social bullshit by only subscribing to...

    Photos Stick-n-pokes you've given?!

    That 'broke' monopoly man tattoo is sick. So is the squatter symbol one. Great shit. I have no tattoos atm, but I'm hoping to find someone to get a couple, or do them myself in the coming months.

    Question I'm considering moving StP to a reddit-like open source software alternative; Thoughts?

    I feel that accessing the past site content is one of the most important aspects of StP as it is now, and that feature is invaluable to this being a community that seeks to assist new travelers/be a source of info and prior experience that is available nowhere else on the internet....so thats a...

    2023 Jamboree Jamboree Location Scouting Discussion

    So in an awesome turn of events, I will finally be able to attend another Jambo! My suggestions for locations are: Bend, OR: in the Deschutes National Forest somewhere between Bend and Sunriver. Or perhaps on the Metolius River north of Sisters. Highways and trains get there. Ashland, OR...

    Do You Have a Favorite Hotel/Motel/Hostel?

    It used to be Hotel Hotel Seattle, but covid killed that small buisneas, like it killed every small buisness. Orange Village Hostel in SF is awesome. $30/night for a bed. Free breakfast, cheap laundry (free soap!), a hangout room with TVs, games, instruments, etc. I always hit that place up if...

    Resolved Does StP still have a "Media" section?

    Posting in a thread, rather than messaging you @Matt Derrick , mainly because Im wondering if others are curious... I'm curious if the site still has a "Media" section, where people can upload pics/videos. I remember this used to be a thing, but I cant find it anymore....if it still exists...

    Snakes

    Carry a big stick, and hit the ground in front of you, loudly, three times before making the next step. Like, Gandalf style. Snakes can feel vibrations in the ground, and will move away from that type of sound, that or rattle. Either way, you will know if the are there or not. I do this...

    Why is it that some people can't fit with everyday society like other people?

    I was going to post something similar in a separate thread, so im glad I found this one. Over the past 8 years I have tried my hardest to balance my societal/professional life with what I really enjoy (this life, Traveling life). I finally had a stable career with the ability to travel in the...

    Ya, I often feel really bad for the narrator of the podcast, its made me tear up a bit a few times, not gonna lie. But I mean, girl obviously has some trauma/mental illness throughout her life, and sometimes that makes you just have to leave. I get it. Sucks, but I get it...at least to a point.

    Squatting Ghost Towns Out West

    Everyone keeps saying Nevada, and I have to agree. I've been to multiple ghost towns in Southern NV, and a few of them have springs near by that still run. There is an abandoned hot spring resort on the US 6 that I would highly recommend visiting at some point. However, I do believe the owners...

    how much do you spend travelling by hitching?

    I'll second this notion. Having a skill of any kind, a hustle, or things to sell will get you everything you need, and anywhere you want to go. When i first set out hitching for the first time, I got a part time job to buy a Martin Backpacker guitar, without knowing anything about playing. I...

    Question how many people who travel by hitchhiking get harassed by police

    Not without a valid warrant signed by a judge they won't. The 'smell of marijuana' is usually how they get people. I will always tell people to invoke their 4th amendment rights, even if they do end up searching you. Never sign any document a cop gives you, relating to searching your vehicle...

    Question how many people who travel by hitchhiking get harassed by police

    Absolutely true....even though the last time I threw out a thumb (expecting nothing, of course) at night in Greenville, CA we got picked up by the first vehicle that went by...sometimes the universe surprises you 🤷‍♂️

    Question how many people who travel by hitchhiking get harassed by police

    Ya, the 4th amendment has been through the gambit in the courts over the years, and the people have lost for the most part, state has whittled away at the rights under unlawful search and seizure. Good news is though, a while ago SCOTUS deemed that people's vehicles can in fact be dwellings...

    Question how many people who travel by hitchhiking get harassed by police

    They don't, in almost any state i know of, need a warrant to search your backpack. Even on reasonable suspicion they can search your stuff. The 'residence' or 'castle' or whatever laws that dictate someone's vehicle/dwelling and the rights that comes with it, do not apply to a backpack on...

    Syndikat Pub Eviction - Berlin

This story is older, from 2018-2020, but its worth reading about, and its sucks...

    Question how many people who travel by hitchhiking get harassed by police

    I'm going to be straight up here, and say that if you hitch long enough, it's close to a 90%+ rate of running into harassment by police. Like others have said, know your rights, the laws in each state you are going through, and how to hitch correctly (and as close to legally) as possible. All...
