Recently left my abusive family, an amazing relationship that i ruined, and a bunch of racist, homophobic (basically all of the "-ists" and "-phobics" a person could be.) "friends". And I just lost my job for basically giving up and now I'm here. Rent is gonna be due soon, and I'll be SOL once I...

I bought this 1999 GMC Utilimaster van at auction because the odometer said it only had 43K miles on a V8 diesel engine. On the initial drive, somewhere between Barstow and Reno the odometer stopped working.......I've had no engine trouble, but on occasion it'll blast out some white exhaust. I...

Tried to camp off grid in the woods/mountains every night, but if I was not looking for camp by like 6-7pm I'd usually say fug it get some drink an park it in front some apartments. No cops...

Hey y’all, it has been quite some time since my last post. I took the rails from Omaha to Manhattan back in 2015 and worked with some friends in Washington Heights for a bit, taking a job with the Javitz Center until 2018. I then moved to Sacramento by hitching the rails until 2019, working on...

Hello! I'm currently in preparation to make my way to New Mexico in April. Someone on Vagabond Reddit posted the link to this site, and I'm interested in lurking/learning more about what I am getting myself into. At the moment I just plan to lurk a bit an learn, but I may be looking for...

Some folks at the Jambo said I should post some pics of the awesome house I've been working on over the last 6 months. It sits on 4 acres. The owner died and left all their stuff behind. The bank has a lien on it and will probably foreclose next year. It was vacant 3 years, but the owner only...

Hi, everyone. My name is Linda, just recently turned 52. Living in my van with 2 dogs, whom I dearly love. Tired of boiling to death when my older dog decides to climb in the driver seat BEHIND me! He's still pretty much a puppy, just turned a year old in May. I am trying to find out the best...

Not just that, but I also intend to hand a flier to everyone who gives me money while I'm flying signs, inviting them to follow me via my blog across the country. This may succeed, or it may be an epic flop... I guess I'll know that if I run out of money, or if I keep making it to the next...

There is a brilliant news paper for rural punks (but I guess this would also apply for squatter as well generally speaking). It's called The Country Grind and is made mostly in Manitoba but with contributors from all aver North America. All their stuff is released on PDF on their website, but...
