Cool and welcome to Squat the Planet! We are a wealth of information on traveling, where to go (do check out the urban explore subforum) and all. And keep in mind we have a big jamboree at the Slabs in October - got a subforum for that as well. :) Welcome!

Welcome sir. Im kinda in the same boat myself. Not homeless, just looking to gather supplies and get outta the rat race. Depending on when you set out and where you head to, we might be able to meet up, as im in illinois and you say you wanna head west.

Right, well how are you going to be looking to travel? Hitching? Vehicle? Or? Cuz i was planning to use my van but i think im gonna actually ditch it because i still have so much to pay on it and dont want the pressure of bills. I plan on hitching for the first while in my travels. Working a temporary job right now just long enough to get what i need and then im outta here.

Does look fun, but im definitely not about to try that shit until i meet someone who knows what theyre doing in that area lol. Thats why i plan to hitch for a while, so i can meet somebody that can show me the ropes in person. Theres a lot of good info on here but i think that shits too dangerous to try on my own. Definitely in the future though.

I had to learn by myself but you're doing the right thing by waiting for someone to teach you.

I mostly hitchhike cause i love visiting places along the way. Get to see little towns and different people.
Oh yea man. I wanna camp on the way and do some exploring. When i was a teenager my favorite thing to do was walk the tracks.

No doubt man. Ego and heavy machines will get you killed quick. Id rather hitch and be patient. All i got is time man
