So in prince george I had a couch surfing host who dropped me at the northern outskirts of town (Hart) early in the next morning, I stood there from around 8:30 am, occasionally going in the Tim Hortons to get warmed up (it started -19 and slowly went to -11). I stayed there untill around 4, no...

Well that the kinda shit I'm sick of hearing (or reading). I'm in F. St John, it's -17 C right now. You might think I'm this clueless hobo/wonderer, but the truth is, I have done my research, and I've been out there on my own for over a year now, and in every place I did something a bit unusual...

Thanks for the video, it was super interesting. I watched it a few years ago. There's should be a part about the doutg if I'm not mistsken. I appreciate all the concerns mentioned. I don't know what I'm going for, But it hasn't stopped me in August 2018 when I started cycling, with ZERO...

Thanks. Already aware of hwy of tears, and truth to be told, it is mostly female first Nations.. But I'll take your advice anyway. Thanks.

This thread will use me to gather information to what hopefully will become the first ever adventures winter hitchhiking to the Arctic Ocean. Im not sure I will be able to pull it off, but right now I did all the necessary preparation. Warm clothing to be added when needed. I'm taking with me...

Amen! I'm high and I love you! Great post

Get a lip tatt.

Hitchwiki.org Sign, good vibes and a smile. DO NOT dress like an anarchist/punk. You want the help of normal/country people, try to look as normal as possible, be always extra kind, maybe a car turned you down, but the next one sees how you react to being turned down. Gas stations/road houses...

2 hrs for how to hitchhike? Put you thumb out, make a sign and smile. Here, I spared you two hours (the video is full of road shots. What the hell for??)

Yeah I'm reading this and it sound like an asshole. Well, I sound. But I still stand behind the point of travelling and testing yourself in other places. Didn't mean to generalize all native English speakers, but more to make the point. Anyway Peace and Salam aLequm

I'm not Australian. I'm from the middle East where bombs and busses explode every now and then... After wasting 3 years of my life "serving" my country I ran a far as I could, Australia was it. Before Canada my passport got stamped in India, Ethiopia, Egypt, Jordan, Mexico and some easy European...

Sounds like you didn't leave the states, Why not going to a really different place, experience some language and colture dificulties? It's something you Americans usually don't do and I find it sad. Stick you thumb out somewhere in South America, or Eastern Europe, Asia. Fuck. Try exploring...

I thought that by mailing yourself you mean mailing a box that you expect to receive in Europe, and I wondered why you can't do it yourself. Hey buddy, hate to tell you, You're very stupid.

That is extremely interesting. Thank you. I'm very close to the conflict and I feel like you did a very good job describing and stating facts.

Excuse me for maybe being an asshole, I swear it comes from good intentions Are you actually expecting to find ilegal/semi legal squats over the internet? I know we all replied here and I was actually surprised to see that it is so "published" but it makes a lot more sense to walk the streets...

I was once asked by a bored security guard "hey! What'ya doing there?". He was like yelling at me, saving the day this hero fuck. I was at the end, making sure no drops back in pants, so the asshole assumed I was jerking off or something. I looked at him straight in the eyes and said "well...

Like previous guys, I also never pay for accommodation. Either get food the same way first dude described or buy in grocery stores pasta or bread, So I can live on 10$ a day for an extended period of time. Usually even less, But when I'm high (never spend money on weed/coffee) I buy more food...

Say hi to lovely Mildura, on route A20! Talking about shitholes... I loved Melbourne, specially the shady part of St Kilda.

Use hitchwiki in order to find good spots, read some tips about clothing, signs and ways to hitchhike, and hit the road! It's not that hard. Don't waste your time and money on all these share ride's. Especially as a female, you shouldn't have problems Hitchhiking. Just common sense. 700 miles a...

Interesting idea. How about interviewing ex-bulls, ex-coos (or present ones, whatever), and basically bringing the other side of the whole punk-hobo colture. I am sure they will have interesting insights and would probably love the opportunity to show their side of the stories, and even maybe to...

I never use a chain when I go grocery shopping. If you have panniers it makes your bike not worthy stealing cuz they are too unique and not practical. Plus, if you lean it in a Windows or just I front the main entrance, nobody will be stupid enough to risk by stealing them. At least in North...

I am in schreiber now. I kinda find a dude that offered me a job for a couple of weeks. He will drop me at Thunder Bay and from there maybe I'll leave the bike somewhere safe and hitchhike to a place for winter. Schreiber is a cool village! Very "villagy" with all those provinces street names

So.. last night was like -3 C Was snowing all day long and I stopped because it's fucking dangerous to ride while it snows. So I slept under a trailer behind an hotel, and this is what happend: It's 23:30, and 3 officers (two vehicles!) just left. Earlier the front desk employee saw me on the...

Comming from the ME, I'm excited to hear your podcast about Lebanon. Thanks

I think I'll use this as my space to bitch about how cold it is and wet and fucked without getting any "smart" suggestions from people who have no idea. :)

Some city councils have in their website a list of buildings to be upgraded or whatever, and since these project often take years, you could probably find these buildings suitable for squatting. Be aware of the risk of being evacuated. That's happened to me in Australia (I was a guest in the...

I appreciate that man. No nothing special now, just trying to hustle something for the upcoming months.

Restaurants. Cool. Do you experience with just appearing in some place and ask for a job? Btw, my intl number is +372, Estonia!

Not sure if this is the right place, it seemed reasonable. Fellow maple syrup fans, I'm biking across Canada, and with winter knocking I'd love to find a place where I can make myself usefull. I have an interview for B visa (U.S at December 27tg in Calgary. I am currently in Sault ste Marrie...

Hey. Is there a link to download these podcasts? Super interesting and I'd like to listen while im riding

It's fucking great to be alone. Be this transparent figure, moving around space. Knowing that none of the people who just saw me on the road, or the gas station or whatever gives a damn shit about what I do. Some people find strength in human relations. I fucking hate when friends/family text...

Yeah all the freight scene is in hold for me now. I find it funny though "against the rules" that's a bit ironic. I gotta say first time I heard the term vagabond was a few days ago when a friend suggested I'll write at Reddit/vagabond. I'm not American and English is not my maternal language...

Let me reintroduce myself. I'm sorry for the double massage. Lock me up! ⚫ Pic 1: I was hiding in the bush cause I got to my spot very early, and was tired. So I put on my full ninja custom, almost vaporized myself (sweat!!!) But was not seen. Had a blast :) New Jersey Pic 2: it was a nice...

Hello my fellow whatever-we-all-are ! I started my bike tour Augost 21st in NYC, Went north to Canada (upstate NY to Vermont, then crossed at Albourgh, VT) and to Montreal. From Montreal I went up north to Val d'or and now south-west to Vancouver. I carry my tent and usually wild camp or couch...
