Thoughts on Austin?

[Belcross]

I'm really thinking about packing up and heading out to Austin Texas but I'm not quite familiar with the area,I don't have a vehicle nor do I have a licenseso I'll pretty much be starting from nothing .can anybody give me personal experience about how easy it is to show up in austin with next to nothing and start over as far as resources they would have. I would literally just be showing up with nothing but what I have in my backpack and maybe a couple hundred bucks,

I was there last summer and it was okay. There was definitely a lot to do. Lots of nice parks and a good art scene but I couldn't bare the heat and the amount of homebums there asking me for a quarter.

I'm wondering if it's a good place to try to go start over with nothing or maybe I should head to the West Coast instead .

i personally think it would be an excellent place to start with almost nothing. i camped out in the woods there and rode my bike into town every day for about 6 months. i've posted about it several times already, so you should try using the search and reading those posts.

I searched for Austin Texas in the search bar but I guess I didn't dig deep enough lol, thank you

austin tx treated me very well it was the first place i went. the springs is where i camped hung out and it was like a 5 minute walk from downtown which is where food spange and help is if you are looking for it.

Austin is great. It's about the be hot as fuck though.

There are resources. There is employment if you are into that. The bus system is quite good in my opinion.

The cops are strict but fair in my experience.
