Traveling, Broke and Sexy (any travelin' folks?)
    #14250431 - 04/06/11 10:33 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Me and a buddy are planning to go hitchhiking all over the country (got a couple places we wanna go) this summer. Maybe even hit up Canada. Gunna be living out of our packs, hiking national parks, camping in the woods, and I'm bringing my mandolin so I can busk for change if/when we run out of money. Maybe we'll even meet someone who'd be willing to show some newbies the ropes of train hopping.

Any of you guys ever do anything like this?

careful when riding the rails- tons of railroad detectives these days, and they are less likely to throw you off a moving train than they are to burden you with a ton of bullshit criminal charges

I've heard they mainly just give you a ticket. If even that. It's like a $500 ticket or somethin. No biggie. Just leave the state and dont go back until you pay it. But I could be wrong.

Haha riding trains is scary for lots of reasons.

I hitch hiked from BC to Ontario and then trainhopped and hitched across the US Florida to Seattle, summer of 04.

I've done bicycle tours and motorcycle tours the past couple years.

I've written a few threads about my adventures, if you care to do a search.

Goodluck to you.

I did this last august through december. Best experience of my life so far. go wherever the road and people take you. Talk to everyone you meet.
When I did this the most important thing I learned and experienced was karma. For me now karma is 100% real and helped out alot. My best advice would be do everything with a goal or reason, even if that reason is to travel aimlesly. Whatever happens take it in for what it is.

Hope you have a great experience!!!

Ive traveled far and wide and ended up in the craziest of situations, been to every state but 4 of em and been to 15 countries. Most of the traveling I did broke or on an extremely tight budget too.

There are various "cool spots" that are stop ins for traveler kids in just about every state, major city and mid sized college town.

I only really panhandle as a last resort and usually it's to get enough money to make more money. As long as you have some money you can always make more money it's just a matter of networking and being in the right place at the right time. Sometimes you can make money with no money but not always and especially not if you're dirty.

There are 4 levels of dirtykiddom:
1. Smells dirty - this is when the clothes/ smell dirt ridden
2. Looks dirty - this is when the clothes/kid look visibly dirty
3. Feels dirty - this is when the clothes take on a "crusty" texture as do the wearer
4. Sounds dirty - This is when the clothes have an audible "crunch" when you try to fold or bend them.


Ive gotten more pussy when I was hungry, broke and homeless then I did in a house with a nice job, nice car, clean clothes and clean cut. When I get housed up for too long i just become stagnate and dont even bother with trying to get laid. When Im out on the street 24-7 I dont have to try, I automatically get hit on because Im around to be hit on. Sometimes women eve took me in and tried to clean me up.

I haven't hitchhiked much but I've traveled by road a fair amount, here's my advice. Keep your head about you at all times, there are a lot of good people in the world and it's easy to fall into a habit of trusting folks, but just remember that anyone you meet is going to be a stranger. Don't be rude just, be cautious. I'd keep a knife with you at all times, a folding one that is legal in every state you're going to be in. Despite that, be friendly always. A little bit of courtesy never hurt anyone. Good luck, I'm sure you'll have a great time :peace:

I dont no how you could do this broke. What are you gonna eat and how you gonna buy or get drugs to keep the trip interesting. And what about chicks?
No money usually means alot less chicks.:shrug:

Thats what I first thought, but I brought some shrooms with me to start out with, most of the people I meet smoked me out, Money is pointless and not needed to feed ones self, and girls wernt that hard to come by

As I said above i actually found girls EASIER to come by.

As for food in most places there are places that give away free food and there are also dumpsters if you arent too proud to eat out of em.

Wherever I go people always want to get me high for free. Ive always been "that guy" in that aspect.
