hello everybody
im 19, born and raised in a small town in alberta.
theres not a lot I can actually complain about regarding my life here or experience growing up, save for a good few shitty people but i might just have bad taste.
despite this, I have developed a strong aversion to the comfort found in habit and stability. its too predictable. without change, the days blur together and i never grow as a person. but when its so comfy and familiar living in habit, why would i ever want it to change?
not long ago I tried to tackle this issue by travelling by more shall we say, conventional methods, but quickly found this to not be financially viable to say the least. but still i found that I far prefer a life of drifting around somewhat aimlessly (but enthusiastically) rather than living in a loop.
so this brings me here. Planning on hitting the road. I've got everything I need already except for a shelter, just been trying to decide between a hammock or a tent. I'm mostly thinking of riding freights, so I already know a tent could be somewhat of an inconvenience for such uses, but am equally unsure whether a hammock can be practically useful due to needing trees and such. maybe either option is too much and i should just sleep rough?
anyways just thought i'd say hi.
as you were.
