Several times in my life I realized that what I really needed was to leave home and start traveling around the country without money or a car. Its obvious that I'm not the only one with this drive but I had to ask you guys about a thing or two.
I picked a date (April 8th) and a ultimate destination (California), decided on some key items to bring (Uke, camera, sleeping bag, dried fruit, water, extra outfit, warm jacket) and found a temp travel buddy. I will have close to no money when I leave and I'm starting in Detroit but am thinking about getting a ride with a friend to Ohio to start.
Both of us are completely new to the game and I needed to ask you all,
if you could give yourself any advice in the beginning of it all what would be?
And what are the ground rules?
How do I go about getting that first ride?
What are the basics of hitchhiking and travelling with no money?
