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 and got two college degrees, traveled to other countries, blah blah blah... But I always, always, feel the call of the road haunting me, and now my son is old enough and asking me to show him things I know... So we are planning to wander off again together, probably heading down south via freight for a couple months in the spring. Roughly planning to go to FL from Rocky Mount NC and then over to NOLA and east Texas before making our way back north. Probably in March-April.
It's a good time for us to do it for several reasons. I'm not sure what I expect to learn, or face, or if it's a good idea or not right now. All I know is that the call is almost unbearably loud now, and as most of you can probably relate, it becomes impossible to ignore once it's there. You have to go. It's that time again. And I'd rather my kiddo learn from me at least a little bit before wandering off on his own. He was conceived on the road, somewhere between the Billings, MT yard and Sturgis.... His father died from drugs when he was 3, and it's been just us all these years. It's in his blood, and a part of our family. We are taking my husky mutt, Mishka, as well.
I'm joining this community mainly to establish newer connections, as most of my old crew are dead or settled, and to hopefully reconnect with some older folks I knew back then. I also could use updated tips on riding, as my old CCG was from 1999, and I mainly hopped around up on the high line between Wisconsin and Washington. I was based out of NC/Chapel Hill (called Jess or Little Jess, though I prefer Fawn now) I had a 3 legged hound dog named Ren way back in the day, but mostly travelled with my dog Kaiote, who looked like a little Shepherd/dingo mix. and have spent a lot of time in different places.
I'm an animal liberationist and would love to connect with other animal rights and environmental activists, as well as connect with other vegans on the road.
Anywhooo... That's about it!
Nice to meet y'all
