Good Video! Just wondering about the Heat factor, though. You'd pretty much have to lie right next to it in order to stay warm all night. Nevertheless, it would be a great fire to keep aflame in order to light other fire(s).
Just be careful out there. All of us wandering souls seem to start this journey in our younger years in which we can become vulnerable to people we run into along the way. While I'm not traveling at the moment, it is something that I love and seems inherent to me. It is very rewarding but can be...
Pepper spray (works on animals as well) ... Good quality sharp knife ... paracord for tying things ... and a good attitude. Eat as much as you can out of dumpsters to save on money if you have any. You'd be surprised at what you can find behind fast food joints. Where ya headed?
Thanks for the clarification Sip. That's what I was gouging at anyway. I saw the option for creating a poll in regards to the subject matter and thought it would be a cool gadget for this topic. Some people give up basically everything with the desire to travel and some like this guy, will keep...

A road "dog" literally makes sense. I was on the tracks one day back in '03 when I met this white and black border collie that just wouldn't shoo away for anything. Because I was close to farm land, I figured he must be someone's loyal companion. However, he had no collar and wouldn't be swayed...
Very interesting project! I will definitely be after a couple of these once they're ready. As some of the other folks have suggested, I would definitely add STP to the design. In fact, I would have it where it went across my forehead when folded up and worn this way.
I'm down. Workshops are a good idea. Paracord and rope knot - tying strikes me right off the bat. This is a must possessed skill for any traveler and not all of us vagabonds know the proper arrangements. If and when we get a concrete date set, I will try buying lots of good paracord in bulk to...
I'd be interested in learning more of these endeavors should any of you guys pursue them. I was a coal miner for 3 years and have a general knowledge with skill set of what entails the process. I have always been interested in gems and diamonds. Have any of you ever stopped by the Crater Of...
I would say, ... if you found peace and belonging at that place, maybe you should give it another whirl. Also, if you have a little capital and the willingness, you could always start your own intentional community.
Hey Matt! Thanks for the note. I probably should have read more before posting the news article. Nevertheless, Love your site!! I know I will be here often. Will try donating soon once I'm back on my feet and trucking as things require money and a site like this should stay up and running. I...
Just came across this and wanted to share the link. Pretty interesting story. Has anyone ran across this lady while traveling?

Just some informational feedback on this one: This is an engine process in big trucks that is done once to twice daily depending on the length of drive. Called Regeneration. It's an exhaust function that supposedly cleans out the system for preventative purposes. As a new trucker myself, this...
I was just outside of Nashville headed west on I-40 thinking about getting to Reno to see a childhood friend that relocated years before. Had talked to him on the phone and told him that I may hitch out his way to visit a day or three but it could take awhile seeing as I was thumbing with a dog...
