When I turned 18 I hitchhiked from WA to Portland OR. After lots of soul searching I decided to go to Alaska. I stayed all around the Kenai Peninsula for almost 3 years before returning to WA.
I met lots of very nice and a few not so nice folks. I worked for housing and made work connections...
I can think of few places that are better for cruising than the San Juan Islands here in the US....maybe Southeast Alaska or the Florida Keys......this truly is a boater's paradise! There wasn't much wind a lot of the time, so I did motor quite a bit....but I did get to raise the sails for a...

There are so many questions people could ask me about my lifestyle, but there is one question I get asked over and over again. "So, do you have a partner/boyfriend?" This question is always asked by men and they are always shocked when I tell them it's just me and my dog. Perhaps it's because my...
We were takin the scenic route towards jacksonville from titusville florida. We walked thru the rain and everything and we pulled off on a road that came thru the footpath in the middle of nowhere. We were hitchhikin to the nearest place to reup on food when it happened. They pulled up and bamm...
So Ive found that there is an extremely important conversation that we need to have with our wonderful community.
Before I begin with this discussion, I want to point out a few disclaimers:
1.) I am a cis-male, and I can only speak from my own personal experience with road dogs and opinions...
So, I'm 18, and tired of mundane 9-5 societal life, and am ready to embark on a journey of spiritual growth, and personal freedom. I'm headed from Denver to San Francisco solo.. I'm semi-new to this, but am excited for something new. Debating if I want a road dog or if I can do it alone.. Any...

I've been hitchhiking around Australia since I was 15 and have done a full loop of the coast and lots of runs through the centre using...
I’m not a traveler, but am an avid primitive camping enthusiast and really enjoy, and am very grateful for all of the great content that is contributed on this site. In the time I’ve been lurking, I’ve come across so much truly helpful info that I thought I’d like to contribute something myself...
Hai!
I'm gonna be catching out for a national longboard solo tour of the South/South-West in late February.
Anyone have any experience or suggestions?
My plan is to use Rails-To-Trails and whatnot where possible, and roads the rest of the way.
I'll be regularly stopping in towns every few...
So about a year ago a friend of mine came to visit me for a weekend and bought a sail boat, 26 feet long, low to the water, with a working Honda outboard of 8 hp and the sail and the dignhy for 2k. To keep it in the harbour where it was, the Lil'Seabird (the boat) had to have a local owner...
OK, we need something funny once in a while. They are not in pain - they are feeling the note - the feeling at the moment .... oh and a giant yucky slug. hehe

I traveled by myself of and on over the years, last time was last summer. Here is some basic safety advice.
Don't pull out your knife, someone will just take it from you and use it against you. If you get it out keep it hidden until you're actually ready to stab and run.
The safest thing to...

Hey everyone, I recently left home (MA) for the first time in my life and I am now staying with extended family just outside of Orlando, FL for the next week or two. After that, who knows, I'm just gonna float with the breeze. I figured I would head towards Ocala since that's where most seem to...
I'm starting from Florida, going to try to make it to Nevada by this time next year. As a lady-bodied queer flying alone, there's always that paranoia of getting picked up by zealots or loons and getting raped or killed (the media has ruined my imagination, apologies). I feel like a lot of...
This trip has been one of the most unique experiences i have had the chance to encounter.From 6 id checks in 4 hrs.To almost getting thrown in jail for other dumbass riders being loud and annoying.
Not so much junkie activity in this story though lol.Good for a chance of pace.
Anyway i started...
Right so I'm trying to save my pay check towards a camper van and since hostels eat a hole in my wallet i was thinking of camping out. I'm in the blue mountains NSW australia. Thats on about 50 miles from sydney, but theres a lot of bushland and national parks. No trouble finding a place to...
Hey everyone,
I've been traveling on and off since April. I've been on foot for only about two months and I'm still adjusting from 'burb life. It was fun going at it alone and meeting people along the way, but now I'd love to share new experiences with another happy-go -lucky beginner. Let's...
So about 4 years ago, I hopped out of Roseville with my ex (then current) boyfriend and 3 of his friends. We were headed to SLC so we got on a grainer and made it outta there. We had about 6 pbr's each but it was hot as balls that day. I guess Chris didnt drink much water that day, so after...

Ok, so i parted ways with my friends cal and jared in evansville, IN. They were going back to the east coast and i was headed to new orleans. I got to the yard and then i started making my way to the bridge that is the supposed waiting spot for SBDs and sure enough the bull is there. So i have...
