Anyones you recommend checking out? I’ve been thinking of visiting Sedona AZ, I’ve heard good things about it. I’d love to find a cool collective there or nearby.

Thanks, yes this is helpful. Fall sounds like the best time to go then because I dont want to be walking around in Florida like humidity or rain. How much you think think it would cost to be there for a month if im staying at cheap hostels and budgeting my money? And what are the best ways to...

Thanks for sharing this! I’d love to hear and see more about your experiences there! I’ve been wanting to backpack around Japan for years and I want to just do it soon while im still young and able. Do you have recommendations on places to go to and where to stay (hostels, etc)? I have...

Will do! I'm actually from Indiana and I'll probably be back for Christmas and new years to visit family and friends (and maybe catch a new years party).

100% agree. I’ve seen the same thing here in Portland and seen people struggle with fent here that really need multiple types of support but housing alone wont solve the root issues.

Hi Leon, I just left Indy last week and I was looking for some cool things to do there and places to go. Good luck on traveling🍀

Ashland, Eugene, and there’s a little town that has huge trees (maybe redwoods) and log cabin homes thats really beautiful but i cant remember the name of the town.

Cool, I went Friday. I don’t know if i’ll be able to make it tomorrow. But I’m still near Chicago.

Anyone plan on going? I might go if i can get a ride there.

Bash Back 2023 - https://bashback.info/ Information about it: “ In 2008, queer anarchists gathered in Chicago to plot a disruption of the electoral spectacle and cohere a network out of emergent youth crews in multiple cities. Fifteen years later, the proposals put forward then — criminality...

I empathize with ya Matt, this all does sound like a lot to deal with for all the years that you’ve put into this site and community. I can especially relate to this: “But, the reality of pretty much anything related to StP was that, if I wanted to see something become a reality, it was up to...

Any word on if there will also be a Bastard conference? I was just thinking about coming to the bay to visit for Halloween.

Thanks a bunch, this is really helpful!

Hey y’all, I’m going to be heading to Tampa at the end of this month to visit family for a few days. This will be my first time ever going to FL and i want see if anyone has recommendations for a cool hostel to stay at? I’d also love any recommendations on cool things to check out there, and If...

I remember reading that there is an anarchist hostel or cafe in Exarchia. They should have a facebook page with info and if i remember correctly its all in greek. If you find it I bet you can definitely meet some people there who can help you and get you plugged in.

Sad to hear the news, but I'm happy STP existed for as long as it did and gave us all so much. I gained a lot of information about traveling, living on the streets, and made some life long friends from this site. Thanks for holding it down for so long Matt!

They recently passed away in northern California. Koda and I met off of STP years ago while we were both traveling in the Bay, and we became good buddies. We just to hangout often, crack squats together, go to shows, go to protests back in the heat of 2020, and overall had a lot of good times...

Hey, first things I recommend doing is downloading apps that allow you to text and make calls internationally, like Whatsapp. Next I recommend downloading the app Hostel World and aim to book your stays as far in advance as you can because its much cheaper. If you plan use something like...

i just found out there’s an anarchist bookfair in Dublin on May 20th (9 days from now), this would be a great place to look for squattas! Also check out Anew’s calendar for more info on events -> Dublin Anarchist Bookfair (Ireland) | anarchistnews.org -...

If your into doing farm work and learning about gardening/agriculture/permaculture/ etc then I recommend trying WWOOF, WorkAway or something like that. Sign up, find places you can work at in areas and states you want to travel to, and that way you can have a place to stay, have some food, learn...

I’ll be there probably by 12 on Saturday. If you and anyone else is around drop me a text.

Thanks for posting this Tobiko! I’ll plan to come out to it too! Since others are planning to come as well then anyone interested in doing a little STP meet up?

Yup, but I’m an over planner. I also like to alternate between spots.

It sounds like y’all did a good job getting the run down on it and planning it out🤙. I don’t have much to add about that place other than recommend that if its cold there then consider buying a portable propane heater like a Mr Buddy heater. I also recommend looking for at least 2 other squats...

I i was there in 2019 and met some awesome squatters in Dublin who let me crash with them, but i dont know if they’re still around. I don’t know where to point you to search but if you can find any anarchist or punk events/shows happening there then there’s bound to be squatters around. Talk...

Hey Michael! Check out slingshot’s directory for Europe, it might be helpful Europe – Slingshot - https://slingshotcollective.org/europe/ Also reach out to @almostvicious, they might still be in Spain. Went to spain again. Here's what happened -...

Just an fyi, my local Carhartt store here in Portland gives a discount if you say you work for a local organization. They didn't even verify me when I told them that and bought a pair bibs this year. I recommend checking to see if other Carhartt stores do the same.

One of those water pouches with a long plastic nozzle. I got one of those and rarely used it. One key way of determining what you need to bring and don't need to bring is when you got everything you think you want to take with you, load it in your pack and spend at least 4 hours walking around...

I live in Portland Or and here there’s a few organizations for housless youth that offer emergency shelter, free food, various resources, and transitional housing programs. I got into one where i was able to live there for 2 years completely for free and I finished college during that time. It’s...

If you go to Ireland I recommend Dublin, If you go to Germany I recommend Leipzig & Freiburg (and rural eastern Germany is beautiful). From my experiences nearly everyone I met in Germany spoke English so you should be fine there, France was the place where very few people I met spoke English...

You might be able to find some info on these sites: https://radar.squat.net/en https://slingshotcollective.org/spain/

I thought it was fine. I think they should have scheduled the different events one after the other instead of overlapping them so we could’ve had a better opportunity to attend them all. The people I met there were nice and friendly to me.

I’m no longer interested in twin oaks. I reached out to them and they have some policies I don’t like so they’re off my list.

Hey I was at Lost Valley this weekend too! I got there late Friday around 9pm and stayed till sunday.

Which ones did you like most?

Hey Y'all, I've been thinking about traveling around again and I've been wanting to check out some communes (or whatever you wanna call them) of people living together off-grid or semi off-grid and doing cool things like growing food, getting out of the rat race, living healthier, etc. I'm in...

If you haven't already, grab you a street roots booklet from the library. Its a resource guide of useful things like places to go for a free meal, homeless shelters, etc.

Duchamp was among the first to understand that in Control Societies, whose structures began to appear in art well before they did elsewhere, art as an insti- tution, art “in the social sense of the word,” as Duchamp defined it, offers no promise of emanci- pation, but instead represents a new...

Anti-civ writings by Wolfi Landstreicher. I am convinced that a revolutionary challenge to the current social order must necessarily be a challenge to the last ten thousand years of institutional development that have created it. In short, revolutionary critique must aim at civilization itself...

There’s a few good places I’ve seen in SW pdx. Dm me about it

Have you looked into FlixBus or Mega Bus?

Hey Tobiko👋, I'm planning on going. If anyone else is gonna be around drop me a line.

Yes, I know for sure this is happening in different parts of Spain. There have even been a few users on here who have posted about their experiences squatting ghost towns.

Sad what happened to it. I hosted some folks from CS and enjoyed it but I decided to delete my account last year when they started charging us just to host.

Hey folks, if you're in Pdx come out for a movie night! Some buddies are having a benefit event and I'm helping boost this. Come out to Pennsula park on 9/11 to watch some cool squatUmentaries, meet other squattas & anarchos and have some fun! Here's more info on it:

Howdy. Where are you looking to build an earthship?

Nice I can actually attend it now!

The comments are the best part of anews lol

If it does happen I hope it happens in the PNW!

Welcome! I visited Ireland in 2019 and went to Dublin and had a great time. I met some awesome people who put me up in their squats. If you come to the US this year and need a place to stay in Portland OR let me know.
