    Got spotted in the Portland yard (just scoping cars). That was the most theatrical bullshit I've ever seen. They called the local cops, 3 of them showed up. Came over a loudspeaker "attention trespassers! Reveal yourselves now and avoid further...

    ha! must of been like watching a dog search for a stick before getting tired and forgetting about it "bark bark! where is it? bark bark!" I had a similar experience in Tucson. my road dog ditched me and I fell in with a random group of kids, so...

    Looks good, maybe toss in a life straw, water filter system (20-30$walmart/sportinggoods store) and a folding saw (15$ hardware store) You'll need a thermal barrier under your sleeping deal. I travel with a yoga mat to put under my sleeping bag...

    Google Translate has an extension that will translate whole pages. It's not exactly perfect but with context clues you should be able to understand. Should work on a phone too. I don't speak Greek either lol.

    A lot of people have monkeys on their backs before they hit the road. I can't count the number of schwilly train kids I've known who were basically riding and drinking to stay off dope. Meth can be a real slippery slope cause it makes a lot of...

    There's not really a sure-fire checklist of "if a person is doing X, then they're probably lying" - if that existed there would be a lot less grifters in the world. Unfortunately a lot of con artists are good enough at getting people to believe...

    It can go in both directions. People who are addicted might seek travel as a way to try get away from the problems those addictions caused, perhaps hoping that travel can be a clean break. In my experience that works insofar as if you aren't...

    Thanks to all the people who've downloaded it and I hope some of you read it. At the very least skip ahead to Chapter 10, Illimitable Heights. That's the chapter about Slab City

    Thank Thank you! This sounds like a cool site. Unfortunately I don’t speak (or read) Greek, so at first glance at this site I don’t know what any of the text says. Does there happen to be a translation button on it like some sites have? If so...

    Many people traveling are trying to escape something. Traveling for that reason frequently doesn't help them to escape, and, in turn they turn to drugs and alcohol to escape. All that is, is a temporary illusion. And worse, if one gets addicted...

    Alright, it's done, i bought a goddamn foldie. There's millions of them here in Asia, although almost all of them are the bi-fold type that are still pretty large. Bi-folds (Tern, Dahon etc) are definitely small enough to casually chuck into a...

    You're smart to think things over before hitting the road... All too often, people head out without any forethought, and then get into bad situations. Hopefully you're doing more research and saving a bankroll of cash. I can't stress being sure...

    There aren't a lot of people who use them anymore. If you get one for free, like the OP, then it's worth it to have, as on the Interstates the traffic reports can be handy. In the event of a breakdown you could probably get help as well. If you...
