Brought this over from where I published it earlier as it kinda applies to freight hopping and many folks may only read in here, dunno. I used to do a lot of foreclosure work back in the day in between hopping freights. Nine times out of ten, if you have the keys to a residence --- in the US at...

I used to do a lot of foreclosure work back in the day in between hopping freights. Nine times out of ten, if you have the keys to a residence --- in the US at least --- the cops will generally leave you alone and consider it a civil matter. The double edged sword here is that if you are going...

Heloou, Someone want to go to travel from Czech Republic to south Spain and around? Im from Argentina, living in a car since 3 years, currently in a squat in Czech Republic. Cheers

Hi everyone! New to this site so here's a bit about me.... I started squatting at 15, traveling/hitching/hopping at 16. Traveled all over the country multiple times that way until I got pregnant at 20 and got off the road for my kid... Did a lot of domestic, responsible shit in the past 17 years...

I found this article while lost in some internet rabbit hole during the summer. I saved it as I thought it was very good, and I was worried the site it was on would go offline, as it looked like it hadn't been updated in years. I think it will be of interest to a lot of people on this site. I've...

The whole film is posted on the youtube now!

New to all of this, been a long time camper and hiker tho. The road life has been calling me for a while. Cool to find an online community. Can't wait to learn and share with y'all. Peace.

I will be updating this journal so you can see in real time how things develop. Typically day by day, unless it's a nonsense day. I am brand new to this, so it all comes from the eyes of a total newbie. Day 1 - Three floors on the house I found. Basement has water and electricity, and a broken...

Hey Y'all, I hope you're all staying safe and healthy right now but I know this is a very hard time for a lot of folks so you have my sympathies and prayers. While I'm stuck in place and likely not going anywhere for a long while I started to wonder about what cities are the best to be...

I know in a lot of abandoned buildings, there's a power box with no lock. You just take the little piece of red tape out from between the two currents, open up the meter and stuff something in between the dial and the thing that holds it to stop it from rotating, and voila! You have free power...

squat that planet

In 2016, i did a study of heroin use in Vermont for the state Department of Health there. i ended up living in a dirty kid squat in Burlington for the summer after i met a former poster here on the bus, and remarked on his CSX hat, and Crass logo patch. Due to a falling out about funding, the...

I have been leaving the lights off at night for a few days because I got spooked. I won't do that again because I don't approve of what you did with sugar packets in my front yard. However, I'm leaving the empty packets where you left them because these gentrifying assholes have to learn this...

I’m 26, a guy and from NorCal. I don’t or can’t really keep a full time job, and most jobs don’t hire or keep me for long, and any that would I wouldn’t want to do them. I’ve never been homeless but I have considered squatting, moving around, couch surfing, or whatever. I have little to no...

Does anyone have experience with squatting city owned houses? Id like to hear peoples thoughts on their experiences with the ejection process and how long they were able to hold them

My squatting is coming to an end. I can either: turn my squat over to the city, giving me some protection if something happens to the physical structure. Declaring the property vacant would give me some legal protection. Or, instead of declaring the property abandoned, give it over to a...

Where should I go? I'd love to meet other squatters and get a lay of the land, and help with any projects that need being done.

I've been stuck in NYC for the last like 4 years in an apartment. I want to go into the woods for awhile and live off the land, somewhere I'm not going to be bothered by landowners or cops/rangers. I want to be able to build stuff and if I have to worry about rangers kicking me off of state...

Anybody know of any active squats in olympia?

Myself and a small group of folks are interested in putting together an intentional squat for rad/anarcho folks who want to do the damn thing! I am in search of legal advice specific to Texas, anyone with resources they can offer or have leads on, and folx who may want to help/participate in...

As of March 1, I am a squatter. It's not the first time, but the scale of it feels larger because I'm not sneaking around. I've become the default caretaker of a property without permission and this was the first month a rent check wasn't cut. This all started in March (yeah, almost a year ago)...

Look you guys. I'm seeing many people on here in need of housing, or wanting more viable housing. It really makes me wonder, why are we not correographing and starting more squats? Can we please get a discussion going on this? There is just a REDICULOUS amount of unused/abandoned houses out...

Hi folks. I’m making this post to announce that I’ve decided to step down as a moderator and participant on Squat the Planet. Please know that this wasn’t an easy decision to make but I’m convinced it’s the right move for me. There are a few reasons for this: 1) I’ve been on StP for six years...

This morning while walking towards sh*tmart (Walmart) by my house, I heard gun shots. 4 minutes later I saw Milw. police SUVs racing to a major popular park. Reading this news article should be heads up to be careful where you squat. There's more to this story we're not being told. To me...

Not sure if I should put this is squatting, orwilderness survival....it seemed better here. Hey all, I am creating this thread to see what people's experiences have been with the recent push by the Forest Service and BLM to limit 'Residential camping'. As I have noticed recently, the FS and...

Hello everyone, Is there a squatting scene or squatting-type scene in Atlanta, such as with veggie eating, houses with homemade art? I would love to see this on my short trip for a week this month.
