Thank you for the advice, do you think its possible to gain citizenship while doing this?

After extensive spanging i was able to save up enough to obtain a passport and a cheap plane ticket and visit my girlfriend in Finland, Ive been here for 2 monthes and we both want to get back to America and she wants to get her citizenship there and travel with me. She has all her gear, we have...

h a I just went through a pretty rough break up and this comic made me smile and laugh for a second. Thank you, god bless

Hey everyone, first off let me just say sorry if this isn't where this goes, I couldn't figure out where it did. I was gonna take some mma classes before I hit the road since I'm pretty skinny and un intimidating. I recently found out I can't afford it. I'll be carrying a knife but still I'd...

I recently decided after much thinking that combat boots are cool and great but that since they offer almost no comfort and weigh a lot on your feet that I'll probably be investing (or more likely stealing) a pair of durable suitable shoes instead. I work at goodwill taking donations so I get to...

Hey everyone, so I passed up buying a rothco pack in favor of buying an actual gi one but I already have some rothco jungle boots. I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on how they would hold up for vagabonding. Has anyone used them? Were they okay? Should I look for something actaully gi...

I've come to terms with the fact that this might be a medium and that a medium is much smaller than I thought which is okay. As I said I think this can work if I strap my sleepi bag below the pack. Any tips on how to do so? It's an MSS troop bag.

hey everyone, recently I ordered a medium Alice pack (super original, I know) and I have it now and the thing is pretty fucking small. Like honestly I'm not sure if they even sent me a medium. Maybe it was a small by mistake because this thing is pretty small for something called a medium. I'm...

Thank you all!!! Im currently on the look out for an 8x10 brown poly tarp because of your advice and if I don't find one I'll just buy one. Thanks for the advice!!!

Oh also, would it be better if the three of us instead used the fake tyvek tarp material to each make bivys?

Hey all, I'm planning on using a tarp on my travels instead of a tent to save weight but I have some questions. I tried searching for them all over the site but couldn't find anything that would answer my questions. Okay, now to the questions: 1. I've heard tyvek house wrap makes for a good...

Hey everyone, I need a medium sized alice pack for train hopping and everywhere I look online sells them for quite a bit of money, like over 20 bucks which doesn't sound like a lot until you consider that that doesn't include a frame or any straps or anything. Since I'm buying those seperate Im...

Ah well, maybe when I ship out i can send it your way for keeps

Hey everyone, I have a military surplus coat I was planning on taking with me for train hopping/hitchhiking. It's an m-65 field coat. It's extremely durable, very warm, it's got a rain hood in it which makes it my poncho as well and it's a nice dull green color. The only problem is it's 3 pounds...

I'm investing in a medium size Alice pack. I think I'll have to cut down that list quite a bit to be at or under 30 but I think even now that list would likely for into that pack.

If I could find a way to take a picture of my own rear (with the assflap on it of course) then I would model them but alas Im not that flexible and currently I don't have any one around who I think would do that for me lol. If we ever cross paths though, I suppose you would get yourself a free...

As promised, now if you REALLY wanted me to I suppose I could model them, but, I think you get the picture Lol. I'll upload them in the order I made them but just incase that gets jumbled the juicy came first, then the green one, then the small black one. The first one I made wasn't great and I...

If you know what a bum flap or a butt flap is its the same thing, I just personally call them ass flaps. If that sounds just as weird the I'll explain, it's a piece of fabric or material that's draped over your ass (usually from tieing the ends to your belt loops) so that when you sit down the...

I have a fairly nice rain coat leftover from my Boy Scout days, would you recommend bringing that or a plastic poncho. I only said poncho because I figured it would better since it would also cover my pack and legs but the only thing is that ponchos (the ones I can afford atleast) are really...

Hey everyone, I made a packing list of things I want to/think I should take with me when I start train hopping and hitch hiking. I tried to think light but the more I thought the more I remembered something I temembered I should bring. I'm packing it all into a medium sized Alice pack with the...
