    New Here FINALLY Leaving WA >> CA & Seeking Travel Partner

    Hope you're not actually gonna send this person a ccg who has admittedly never hopped before, and new to traveling in general. THAT'S how you blow up the spot. OP, it won't be hard at all to find a mentor around where you're at and summer is coming.

    Im new, and i need help. im trying to sell all my things because i have no where else to go

    Road snake... That's a first, doesn't sound viable but hey prove me wrong. I'd suggest posting up on here in the equipment section, Craigslist and Facebook marketplace. Get an Amazon prime free trial to order cheap gear n the essentials while you got a house, then cancel it before they bill you.

    Jersey shore heading to west coast.

    Okay dude. If there's anything people hate more than anything on here it's people who made an account yesterday asking for train hopping information. If you had bothered to do any research on this site or on the internet at all you would have a whole north American train railroad Atlas...

    On Selling Out

    Doesn't take too long to realize this lifestyle is heavily romanticized and most people aren't cut out to do it for life. I understand the feeling of being trapped on the road, despite hitting the road because I felt trapped in the 9-5 cycle. It's okay to not be a lifer. It's okay to want...

    Hello! Semi-seasoned traveler

    Better leave before the weather gets too gnarly. Was just in Minnesota a few weeks ago and it was getting pretty brutal. Escape the clutches of Midwest winter.

    19 y/o artist in search of freedom

    Go camping! Get a back pack, sleeping bag and a tarp and go fuck shit up in the wilderness. Once you're comfortable sleeping outside start hitching. Experience is the ultimate teacher. I suggest you start heading south sooner rather than later if you want to hit the road this year

    Living off the land

    Look up the documentary "Happy people: A year in the taiga". Only tools they use from modern civilization is a chainsaw and a snowmobile, which is pretty much essential in the environment they're in. Pretty damn impressive

    There is no such thing as Clean/Green Energy

    The fact that we have solar and wind energy right now decreases our dependency on oil. The demand for oil goes down because of the alternative energy source, after the turbine or solar panel is produced. Therefore being a much cleaner alternative to fossil fuels because it consumes far less in...

    There is no such thing as Clean/Green Energy

    "Virtually unlimited" key word virtually. As long as the sun shines and the wind blows that will be an energy resource. Sure you need oil to produce turbines, but the whole reason it exists is so we don't have to rely on fossil fuels as heavily which are far less Eco friendly. You seem to be...

    There is no such thing as Clean/Green Energy

    In the long run solar and wind are producing clean, virtually unlimited energy, and are eventually going to be able to harvest more joules than coal or oil ever could as technology progresses. We certainly should be concerned with where our energy comes from. Oil and coal resources are...

    Go with your gut it's never wrong

    Only done it once while crazy intoxicated. Sobered up on the train and felt like a dumbass. Your life is never worth the ride and you don't get badass points for doing it.

    Jaded and unmotivated

    Times a bitch. Half of me knows this and demands that I ignore the perpetual "what ifs" and get back out on the road before it's too late. nothing is guaranteed. On the other hand, I tell myself to be less impulsive, excercise restraint for the sake of security and hope things start coming...

    Jaded and unmotivated

    exactly this. it's romanticized but the freedom is too sweet to pass up. I'm in the same situation, hopping from job to job, lying to myself that this time I'll get my shit together. But in the end Working the 9-5 and repeating the same day over and over again just isn't for me and I end up...
