Hey y'all. Haven't been on here in a while so I hope I'm doing this right. But I'm trying to catch a ride Friday out to Florida from Virginia Beach. Anyone going that way?

Been lurking a long time, decided to finally join up. Really wish I'd listened to the general sentiment before making the mistake of coming to Billings, MT but alas 😞 No matter, taking the free ride out of town either next week or the one after, depending on how things shake out. Probably going...

May 2023 I took the Train to Jacksonville from Buffalo NY with my bike for $200. Not a bad deal. Northern Florida wasn't too bad. It's wider up there and there are parks and forests. Florida turns to shit the deeper south you go. I live in Florida in the 70s 80s and 90s and it was pretty easy...

Found a good place to squat since my last one was found out. This time there's nobody to come check on the place. However my main issue is getting inside. There's two glass sliding doors and one window that would be optimal entry points, however I can't get them open with this method. Any advice?

The Florida Mountains are rugged and remote. The Apache came here for the abundant plants they used as medicine and food. The name Florida in Spanish means 'abundant or covered in flowers." I was too late for spring flowers but I'll definitely be coming back here. This place is gorgeous.

Hey folks. My name's Kyle and I'm a Floridian looking to get out of the state and see what goes on up North. I don't have much travel experience under my belt but I'm looking forward to changing that sometime by the end of the year or into next year, once some of this COVID stuff settles down...

Before I disappeared into the landscape on the Acuilla River, a truckload of rednecks spotted me. They said something to me and I walked over because I couldn't hear them.

There's a shitload of boats washed up everywhere in Florida after the hurricane. Even when there isn't a hurricane there's abandoned boats all over. If you could paddle to them on a raft or kayak or something they would be a great place to squat. I'm living on a boat right now and there's a...

I'm a college student who wants to take a break. Where's a good guide about how to do this in Florida and where can I find people to join?

There is a place called the Devil's Tree in Port Saint Lucie Florida. The land is tainted by murder, rape, and idiots doing the same thing. Yet to my dismay it was like that before.
