I believe he could succeed to get to tuktoyaktuk hitching. Although i also believe this depends heavily on the level of generosity from people traveling and locals. Best of luck. Also with regards to the weapon, I've seen lots of grizzlies, black bears ,wolverines ,cougars etc. While...

Sick flixxxxx yo

I don't think it would be too bad was long as you get dropped off near a shop or somewhere to warm up periodically. I've hitched across Canada in -40 and it really isn't too bad as long as you're not outside for more than s couple hours at a time. Sleeping outside is another story.

Met an American dude travelling on a motorbike thru cape Breton island in nova Scotia a few years back who said he trekked 17 days with some local tribe to get across the darian gap.

thankful to be born in such a priveleged situation. for my family and friends and being in good health. thankful for this earth that gives us all we need despite how we treat it.

They never ask for tickets as proof of payment in any general class carriage in India. Just ride the general class passenger trains.

Have you passed thru white river or schreiber yet?

Damn dude I grew up in the soo. Do u need anything specific right now? I can try to help. Enjoy the ride west along lake superior and good luck with the work

Follow yer heart

Tell me about it. Money can't buy love but it sure can drive us to rape our earth to the point of no water or clean air to breathe. Most entitled consuming careless competitive person wins at this sad confused society

Desert yard feels like home the people you meet and the smell of sewerage ahhhhh west Oakland nostalgia

Fuck our society. All these wildfires burning and no end in sight glaciers receding more and more and we wanna build more pipelines. Hahahhahahahahaaaaaaaa

Haha whatever cooks his food I guess.. I have been stovelesson he road for awhile trying to lighten the load but lately thinking about getting cooking gear again.

I've cooked tons of meals with alcohol and beer can stoves. Lots of rice and lentil and pastas, oatmeal etc. Maybe not as good as some but for sure cooked a lot for awhile with one

you on the road with the solo drifter mr Richard wright?

Fuuuuck I need to go back to India! Sabkuch milega! :)

Kimchi, fermented cabbage , is a great probiotic aswell as in sure many of you are already aware.

Come on...seriously dude?How to get into a country with a massive land border that's mostly forested?If you need to ask you probably should not bother. Not trying to be rude but come on you ask a silly question it warrants a silly answer. By the way being homeless and getting by without a job or...

Grand forks was a lot better atmosphere for me than Fargo. Godspeed. Maybe this friendly dude who started the thread will show u around Portland???

Fair enough if you want work I suppose its a good place from what I hear. Although what big cities in nd? Fargo...minot...Bismarck. Not too big and I never been to minot or Bismarck but Fargo suuuuckkkedddd in my honest opinion. Nothing happening. Also since its so far inland it gets damn hot in...

What's in north Dakota other than small honkies towns and beets and other crops? Maine seems way more appealing to me but I suppose it depends on your interests.

Lots of people dumpster in Melbourne. People were cutting and sharing Coles and Woolworths dumpster keys amongst everything else when I was there.

Thanks for sharing great article.

Maybe around winnemucca? Beautiful area to hike and explore. was only in sparks elko and Vegas and they all kinda sucked, was just restocking. People were friendly and weed is legal.

Read John frusciantes aaautobiography in early high school. Really ininspiring lots of respect for him. Hahaha insane clown posse! I learned about juggalos in Denver. Met some self titled deadheads in the bbay. Never checked out that voodoo donuts place but I saw it in Eugene and Portland...

Awesome photos. Agree with @palmazon.. That one arm handstand at the sky deck is crazy. What was the most memorable place?

Socks. Water. Waterproof stuff.

Very well said. I fully agree man.

Id say Idaho is one of the hottest states to ride in terms of punishment from what friends and other riders have told me. Roseville is super easy. Anywhere is easy if your patient and cautious.

Id catch the daily Denver>slc z train from 36th St yard departs around 4 am. Get off in green river and get on something you'll either go via pocatello, ogden or salt lake city. Call it in to find out where its going. Best get an ogden train go straight to roseville and catch something to...

Straight up if I ever see someone again from the west in an undeveloped country doing this kinda shit in gonna have a huge chat with them. Hitching I don't see any problems nor busking but flying a fuckin sign or spanging is sstraight fucked up. What marmar said. We are so fuckin privileged to...

you seem like the coolest chick ever. mad respect. inspiring stuff.

Welcome! T bay make er pay! are you from fort william or port arthur?

nature is cruel in many ways. i sometimes wonder could inuit tribes or many people living in arctic or colder climates survive on veganism? they cant. i think what you eat largely depends on what kind of climate you are living in. living in canada in the winter when its frozen consistently for...

respect! thats awesome to hear. all the best on your adventures! :)

abandoned buildings, under bridges, rooftops, underground, tarp or tent set up somewhere wooded or surrounded by tall grass, or under the stars....anywhere that is out of the way of peoples daily routine that you feel comfortable...limited by your imagination :) once you find the spot, keep it...

In Canada it is the same although you need 7. I go thru their dumpster usually and whatever I find doing normal daily stuff along with that. Can get a free refill as well. Definitely a useful trick/scam.

great cover. travelled in nova scotia and newfoundland with some people, including sarah (girl on the right side playing banjo), a few years back.

I'm not too sure about this to be honest, never really squatted abandoned buildings for more than a few nights. met some travelers that squatted for the winter in a home in st johns, newfoundland and had running water and electricity from what they told me. perhaps talk to some neighbours about...

sounds like you are ready for it. go for it. lots of work. depends if you are into farm stuff, trade stuff, im not sure but lots of work for sure. traveling on a budget, sounds like you know how to. stories, too many to think of specific examples. hehe...all the best....

Awesome idea for a workshop Matt! :) Went on a small trip with a good friend a few days ago and I carry only one but as we were two we brought another pot and dumpstered an empty aluminium can and made it. Using 99.9% pure methylhydrate, 6$ CAD for about 1 liter. Lasts for many meals. I use a...

Enjoy your summer and travels. With regards to train hopping, being inexperienced around trains in general I would personally recommend meeting someone willing to take you if it's something you are really interested in. I wish you the best.

I've had a really amazing experience at a gathering in northern Tasmania a couple of years ago with @Swamp womp . Not sure how big it was. somewhere between 150-200 people I'd have to guess, from all over this planet. Really nice rivecr running through that everyone would swim in and we would...

sounds like you are honest to yourself. a long road ahead but you are on the right one by the sounds of it....gratitude is king :)

^^To me, real beauty lies in the soul. Although it is important to treat our body as a temple, I feel we need to be more conscious of the appearance of our minds than our bodies. I definitely had some stomach problems on the road. Had a few episodes of really bad food poisoning in Burma and...

Can't wait to have some adventures on a third continent together my dude! wooo!!!
