Tell me your stories
Been in france for 8 weeks with just a backpack and a sleeping bag/bivy
Hitchhike to different cities ajd when im bored of cities i hike from villge to village.
Took about €100 euros but maxed my overdraft out after about 4 weeks so now i just shoplift PB/cheese/protein bars and walk into hotels in the morning for breakfast which works about %50 of the time.
As for whsr i do all do whatever i want really, chdck out the galleries and musuems some times to try to make you pay but just blagg that you lost your gf or left your sunglasses inside. Met a couple of people on tinder and took em on cheap hobo dates like building fires, drawing on balloons and dumping them on some boat in the canal, silly string fights, fingerpainting a sidewalk. Read books, go to free concerts/jazz clubs. Swim in lakes, rockclimb/boulder
Theres a lot of maintenance like finding a decent place to sleep, places to shower - most universitiy sports halls have a unlocksd changing room you can use.
>Met a couple of people on tinder and took em on cheap hobo dates like building fires, drawing on balloons and dumping them on some boat in the canal, silly string fights, fingerpainting a sidewalk. Read books, go to free concerts/jazz clubs
What?
The ramblings of a deranged individual, who coincidentally happens to be a hobo. Complete coincidence.
He probably _did_ go on those dates, but with imaginary companions.
sounds like you're just homeless retard
LARP alert

How? Do they ask for your fucking make believe hotel ID? No one is gonna be there guarding the food asking people for proof of room purchase.
Lots of hotels will ask for your room number AND receipt as many provide breakfast as a separate purchase. The bigger the place, the more likely you are to squeeze through.
maybe check online which hotel/hostel has free breakfast included for an easier time then?
im more of an urban exploration guy
It would be fun to do this with a fixed budget. Like give your family $2000 and tell them to send you $150 each month on the first. I bet you’d be pretty self reliant after the first few months.
about 2 weeks across the usa, was pretty shit, spent about 10 dollars, now im squatting in a decaying house on the ionian sea, pretty shit also, but the owner is cool with me being here, urban travel isnt really my thing anymore, better to keep to villages and sleep in abndoned churches, fields, mountain passes whatever, or even in houses with or without permission
I was just in the Ionian 2 weeks ago which island ? Crete? Santorini?
I went to Japan and parts of Europe. i slept in parks and abandoned buildings. i filmed most of it and put it on my youtube.(vagrant holiday)
it wasn't about the vagrant holidays we went on. but the friends we made along the way
just taking a video?
be calm...
>sanpaku eyes
Based Vagrant bro
Why didn't this gay make anymore videos. This was my favourite channel.
I once spent a night sleeping rough in Gravesend after missing the last train home. Was some epic shit mang. Woke up with twigs in my hair.
>survives exclusively on hummus and baguette
This guy's lack of appreciation for local food drives me fucking insane. I understand not wanting to eat at fancy restaurants and stuff but holy fuck give some of the cheaper stuff a chance
>This guy's lack of appreciation for local food drives me fucking insane. I understand not wanting to eat at fancy restaurants and stuff but holy fuck give some of the cheaper stuff a chance
But he only travels in Western countries, except for the one time in Mexico.
based on the amount of content I'm pretty sure his videos are a carefully edited and crafted LARP.
>pretend to go to sleep or wake up in a random bush viewer is hooked
it also doesn't matter what he says or does at that point bc he's "wandering"
For what fucking purpose, retard? You think he sets a camp up at night in some bush in a random European city, then walks to the nearest hotel, books a room, sleeps there overnight, and then walks back to the camp in the early morning, gets into the sleeping bag and starts recording again? Do you seriously think that’s even any easier than actually just doing it?
Would be pretty epic if he did
>Plans trips and goes onto Google maps to find deserted parks and camping areas next to nice hotels
>Books hotel, sets up camp
>LARP sleeping in bushes
>Get retards on sighsee wishing they were as intrepid as you
Pretty sure he did Japan as well. But agree with this anon
The hummus and bread is just try hard. The guy clearly eats more than that but knows it's the sort of shit that gets incels on here wet
i doubt it, some people are just weirdos, I have friends who can only eat very beige boring food, one of my closest friends only eats the same meal every single day.
I think you consumed just too much social networks, anon. Shit he does is clearly not faked. Also if he was keeping some massive social network presence, making money out of it, then it could make at least some sense. But he does pretty much the opposite, not to mention nuking his own channel for fun.
I think the thing I find insufferable is he always talks about being anti phone and technology yet it's blatantly apparent he's using Tinder while he's traveling. If it wasn't for that I wouldn't call him a gay, just makes me think he's a poser.
you realise if you're not an ugly sperg using tinder literally just for somewhere to sleep that night is really easy right?
tips or stories if one isnt an ugly sperg?
ugly girls will let you sleep anywhere, you dont have to fuck them
His trainhopping video was certainly real, as he was actually on the train, however, I seem to remember that the whole part where he claimed to be getting chased by police/yard bulls, you never actually see or hear any of the people chasing him. He also gets away, which is unlikely given the circumstances, but whatever
RETARD ALERT
for me its when travels to some place, spends 5 minutes showing how he found a shitty park to sleep in and then only does a minute of content on what he actually did there after
theres just large gaps of interesting content missing for no reason. Like when he finds a random gf for the night. I guess his excuse is he doesnt give a fuck if we like it or not
>theres just large gaps of interesting content missing for no reason. Like when he finds a random gf for the night
What's he supposed to show you? Him swiping right on tinder or him inserting his dick in the girl?
Everything is a show. He sleeps at Airbnbs/Girls every night and just recreates the whole survival thing by going to the park early in the morning and film a POV of "how he wakes up" and starts his "survival day" (A random guy pretending to be a hobotraveler)
You are retarded.
Proof or show ur tits
t. never left his home
>anon who posted similar comment
why are brainlets so triggered by the truth? They hate being conned and refuse to admit their lil wee brains have been subverted by "reality TV" you fucks make me sick. Ofc he is LARPing for content and views and attention and money. Jfc yes it IS much easier to fake than actually sleep in a fucking bush you retard. It's like Vanlife 2.0 but done extremely carefully and requires little to no overhead to produce.
Sleeping in bushes is easy as shit, I don't know why people pretend it's some elaborate LARP. Chances of somebody randomly walking into bushes at night to check for someone sleeping, even by chance, are close to nil. To do it for less than a month in the cool season is not that difficult. Guy is quite skinny and probably doesn't sweat a lot. I sweat quite a bit, but even I can manage to go on for that long with just public bathrooms without smelling like a garbage bin. You're genuinely desperate for (You)'s to samefag this hard.
I bet (You) smell like shit and don't even realize it
I bet (You) smoke cocks on the regular.
also, in most european countries this is not illegal as long as you don't tresspass
Laws might differ; fact is most people don't give a fuck, which is in favour of anyone doing this. To be fair if someone tells you to fuck off from their land you do, and they have no right bar you from leaving, so leaving solves 99% problems.
>for attention and money
You are fucking retarded.
I guess the prison island, train riding and walking around in a riot were just larp too? But he wouldn't sleep in a bush!
It's a schizoid from sighsee who posts this, he has a rage boner for Vagrant Holiday.
We see him entering derelict houses at night and then exiting during the day. Simplest explanation is that he sleeps there. Why would you enter and then exit during daylight and return to enter and exit during the night when you could make it a one-way trespass?
There's some larping going on, for sure. I think he probably eats some meat when the camera's off, and doesn't rough it continuously or in high risk areas.
We see him riding train cars, but sleeping in a bush is just not believable. He needs to provide footage of him sleeping or else it's a LARP. People say I'm very cynical and world-weary for my age.
How do you think people slept for 100,000s of years before we had beds/sleeping bags?
The joke was that sleeping in a bush is not adventurous at all in comparison to train riding, so it's unlikely that he's secretly chickening out on that. I think some skepticism about internet personalities and how they present themselves is good, but there's also a point where it turns into sour grapes.
I think I watched this when he first put it out, but I didn't realise he'd made other videos.
There's another video on his account there where he goes right into Chaz/Chop and films himself getting chewed out by several locals. He's also filmed himself winding up drug dealers by pretending his baking soda is cocaine. Curious what he's up to now, if he hasn't been murdered.
I've lived like a vagrant a week here and a week there in my life, but never intentionally. Although it's true that my sheer blind stubbornness made me do everything the hard way. Why did I think I could walk from Trieste across the Slovenian border? I don't know. I was dragging a medium sized suitcase the entire way. My hands were completely blistered by the time I reached an old Venetian town called Muggia, which was almost completely pedestrian due to its age. It had fountains and covered walkways with the Lion of St Mark over archways. I ate some triangular sandwiches with half a boiled egg in the middle. I settled down in a little alley behind a small art gallery, very clean but out of sight, and most importantly out of the sun. Tried to sleep on a bench by the Adriatic and caught a cold from the sea wind. Ended up taking a bus back into Trieste without paying for it, buying a ticket to Vienna, missing the bus to Vienna, then I was kicked out of a train for not having a ticket, then I somehow ended up in Klagenfurt. It's kind of a blur. I was eating a lot of sugar stolen from cafes. My disorganisation had a lot to do with the lack of public WiFi in Italy, and I was only able to make proper plans after arriving in Austria.
nobody watches him for vanilla travel vlogs. Why would he try what hundreds of other channels specialise in anyway?
He literally explains why this is in the first video, because there are loads of shitty travel vlogs on youtube which he finds boring. I agree, I fucking hate those stupid vlogs which is why I watch his vids
I survived a couple of weeks in Egypt only on falafel and kofte, cheap as dirt
I've done a couple of trips where I would hitchhike and camp out, and then get a cheap hostel bed when I'd hit big cities, just cause I didn't want to camp out in a cement jungle. I was with my gf so that helped get some trust and sympathy from strangers. Here's one trip:
>Flying in to London, flying out of Dublin, 10 days. Everything else was unplanned.
>Stay two nights at a friend's in London, then hitchhike out of there, make it to Wales. Boiled 2kg of potatoes at my friends, carry them in a plastic bag, that was our food for the next day or two. Camp out in some woods next to a small town somewhere before making it to Swansea.
>Next night we end up in some random city in Wales, can't find a place to crash. We go to the police and ask if they have a place we can sleep, they tell us to fuck off and try the homeless shelter (which was 40km away).
>We go to the local church and try to convince the priest to let us crash there. Turns out they were celebrating a special mass for a baby that had just died, he wanted none of our shit. He gives us 50 GBP and tells us to fuck off.
>We end up splurging on McD's with the free money and then camping out in the woods.
>Cross to Ireland on the Fishguard-Wexford ferry. Everyone is much friendlier in Ireland, we usually find a small village, go to a local house with a frontyard and do our speech "hi we're travellers from xxx, do you mind if we pitch our tent here?" Nobody minds, they even give us food, coffee in the morning, some offered blankets.
>Start making our way through Ireland, eating canned beans and bread, sometimes shoplifting from supermarkets or eating food inside the supermarket.
> Go to a bar in small town, locals love our story. This old couple invites us to crash at their place, buy us fish and chips for dinner, make us breakfast the next day, super nice.
>Finally make it to Dublin. A relative of the old couple that housed us meets up with us and gives us a tour of Dublin, free lunch.
>Last day, we decide to hitchhike to the airport
>Get stopped by cops because hh'ing on the highway is illegal (we knew that, just pretended to be dumb)
>We give the cops our story, play the naive tourist part and ask them for a ride to the airport
>They like us I guess so they agree. We get in the back of their car and are driven to the airport
>Get a pic with the cops as we're leaving
Great trip overall, we travelled like that because we were both broke, and it was just so much fun seeing how you could survive on no money at all.
Fuckin freeloading hippies
Stay the fuck out of my country you absolute fucking leeches. Our people are "nice" because are trust hasn't been destroyed by masses of people like you.
>We go to the local church and try to convince the priest to let us crash there. Turns out they were celebrating a special mass for a baby that had just died, he wanted none of our shit. He gives us 50 GBP and tells us to fuck off.

>decide to blow my last money for some commercial love
>end up banging milf escort with amazing tits
>thanks, French taxpayers
>finally get home next morning
When you say desert, do you mean:
> Didn't get accepted
> Went rouge then bailed
> Bailed at Castel
> Fucked off after basic
> Got assigned at a regiment and bailed
> Rage quit 2 years in
?
>got assigned at a regiment and bailed
This one.
I left at Castel. Way too many people calling me an idiot for signing up to be a glorified toilet cleaner.
5 years is a fucking long time.
Where'd you end up? Guessing not 2REP if you hitchhiked haha.
Why'd you leave btw?
>glorified toilet cleaner
Yeah, exactly. With potential promotion to a glorified security guard.
Ended up in 2REG, wasnt that far from Aubagne. Cant really imagine going from Calvi. Then again, considering their desertion rates.
>why leave
Mostly because of above. I can be a securityfag here, but without dealing with braindead Russians and daily beasting. Also after finding out that similar shit what you enjoy in Castel/farm will be a standard for a next year. Not dedicated enough for that I guess.
What year you were in Castel?
Not voluntary after a certain point.
Being ex-FL you could get great security positions surely? $8k pm gigs, or CP or security on ships going through Suez. NGL, I'm the type of guy prisoner's could see is weak after a few seconds of walking in a prison, so I think I'd crumple in the FL. But always wanted to be that guy.
>t. Ex Household Cavalry
Not gonna lie I didn't used it to get my current job (diplomatic security), but to say I am "ex-FFL" is not being really honest. I did basic, got assigned to a regiment where I started regimental training and then I left, thats about it. My good friend who spent nearly seven years there (who will be deserting soon) will certainly be ex-FFL, not me.
But that's what I mean, wasn't it worth staying in to get the good work later?
Dont get me wrong, I still consider it great experience, journey back home included. Still have friends from there too. Just setting the record straight, I didn't really do much there to consider myself/to be considered "ex-FFL".
Lying to a HR creature so I can get a better job is another thing, that I will do without any issue whatsoever.
Fuck, must've been 2011 or so. An absolute eternity ago.
When life's not going amazingly, it does give me huge regrets that I didn't see it through.
Thankfully made up for it doing some epic humanitarian work in Ukraine recently in some places very close to the front. Think it's put those regrets to put somewhat.
If my only regret is "not seeing it through" and wanting that "romantic status", then it's not really worth it. Morale was fucking low, too many dumb cunts around, and 0 opportunity to learn anything.
Still, provides an amazing opportunity for those who desperately need it.
>2011
Holy shit and I thought I was old, since I was there in 2015. Nice to see even worse cases here, kek.
>humanitarian work in Ukraine recently in some places very close to the front
Nice and my respects to you. You still there? I was thinking about doing something other than sending stuff there as well, especially since I am fairly close to the country. What do you think about situation on the ground there, if you can share something?
ahahahha
I joined a group of 2 lads from the UK who were bringing a vanload of stuff over. I helped fix things up in Poland and Ukraine as I've been based in this region for some time.
Once over we built contacts extremely quickly, and managed to get to Bucha/Irpin to do interviews and deliver aid. After that, we started getting donations and was buying stuff in Kyiv and heading out to villages further north.
Headed East to Kharkiv eventually, and was surreal hearing the shelling. We went to North Saltivka, which was about 2km from the front and was absolutely fucked. After that did Chernihiv and surrounding villages. Raised like 20k GBP total, which all went to food/candles/hygeine products apart from fuel costs.
Was an epic month. Managed to get some amazing interview footage, too.
We got picked up by the Sun at one point (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJJLUuuupYY). I'm not the main guy, but one of them 😛
Shit dude, that sounds pretty great. Also sounds like you did some good work there, you know, actual work that helps people. I don't think many understand how rare that is today. You planning more trips like that?
I've heard pretty much the same from a friend who is with Ukrainian Legion. No clue where he is now, but he said that Sievierodonetsk is going to be the biggest thing. Polish dude I know from France who lives on the border also told me that Ukrainians have been returning back home by a lots.
As for the ground sitrep:
> People are returning to Kyiv, it's getting back to normal
> Action is all in the south. Some huge battles will be taking place soon which will set the stage for the end game. (Million mobilised Ukrainians + new Western toys coming into play)
>Occasional shelling of border cities and threats to invade to spread UA forces
>South = deaththrap
>Villages around the borders where Russians used to be = were in dire need of help
>If you can do evac in the south, you'll have my eternal respect. So many people trapped, but it's a deathtrap
> If Russia win Severodonetsk, they'll have the upper hand to eventually steamroll through flat land to the Dnipro (River Donets is one of the only remaining defendable places before steppe land)
>West Ukraine = ezpz, news hasn't reached them of war
If you want 'acceptable danger', then head to Dnipro. There's a serious organised humanitarian effort down there, and you'll get daily sitreps as to what's happening in nearby places closer to the front. I wanted to head down there, but our team was getting tired by this point.
won't the french just issue an arrest warrant through Europol on your ass?
>desert from French Foreign Legion
desert from a voluntary military organisation?
im planning on doing this very soon. any advice? is it really that easy to steal sheets of hotels and cram into open rooms? i have a bivvy and sleeping bag so im willing to stealth camp in smaller cities but in larger cities i think its too dangerous. would love any advice (beyond dont do it lol)
number one piece of advice is look like a tourist, don't look homeless.
number two is if you get caught just be confident and act like a dumb tourist. works 99% of the time
Why did you post a pic of that photography guy from youtube? this isnt sighsee
don't look homeless, have a camera on your and film shit/take photos
when is he uploading new kino? it's been far too long.
he will upload when he feels like it, bro.
With things opening back up i have a feeling it won't be too long.
I am going to be doing this in Italy, I'm flying to Milan on the 18th this month. I'm starved for Vagrant content so I'm ceating my own.
Summer isn't great for this if you don't plan to use hostels at all as you'll need to shower. Which way will you go?
Milan and where the wind takes me from there, showers I plan to use gyms and things like that. I was in the army and there we showered with x litres of water from a canister or used sinks to wash ourselves, it's not really as hard as most people claim it is.
Most people just haven’t done it. All you need to stay full and clean is a metal cup, a spoon a tooth brush, and a razor.
Wet wipes. All you need is wet wipes.
Milan is a sweltering place in summer; there's a reason why people leave it for the sea and Alps. Don't stay there for too long.
I only plan to stay there for 4 days. I have 0 clue about what to do in Italy.
Walk around until you see something that looks cool.
eat pizza and look at shit. I ate pizza for a week straight when I was there
how expensive is pizza and shit in Italy?
6 euros for a simple Margherita, up to 10 Euros depending on the toppings. Those were prices in non-touristy Sicily this year. Southern Italy in general is fairly cheap.
>You'd think the pizza thing is a cliche but man is it good
It really is fucking good.
>6 euros for a simple Margherita, up to 10 Euros depending on the toppings
wtf no, imore than 4 for a margherita is expensive anywhere south of rome. the best (read down to earth, which is what pizza should be) places in naples are 2.50€ margherita, 2€ marinara
try it out, its fun. i'd recommend using other forums to discuss this other than this abkhazian sowrdmanship forum - such as https://squattheplanet.com/ (mainly us-centred) and get your info from places like hitchwiki. i have done this a lot and it's my preferred travel style if solo & broke (which is often). realistically though, i'd only recommend this kind of travel if you're looking for an adventure and/or are really really into drugs, because budget-wise you can go much further doing things like workaway without LARPing as a 1920's hobo.
they're all very crummy, "hippy" types
unironically avoid them as they are all mentally ill and will try to steal/fuck you over
this, LARPing as a hobo is fun, but you don't wanna be around actual hobos
I was reading that website, and they literally have a dramagayry section where they are having arguments over when they were smoking meth together and who sexually assaulted who. Literal mental illness. Half of these guys look like actual bums you'd see in a street. This is why I always avoid these communal things when it comes to being a vagabond because they always attract actual bums. I wouldn't mind edgy, somewhat preachy people like Vagrant Holiday, but 9/10 times people with similar interests like me look like pic related.
this phenomenon is known in some circles as the "evil hippy," and yeah I can attest evil hippies are a fucking plague
it's not the 80s anymore
I was in Italy one week ago, in Val Grande. I had some pizza from around Verbania, and it was €5 for a margharita. My favourite pizzeria, which is a proper, "fancy" restaurant, with insane demand and fully booked tables month ahead, does it for €6. That's the higher end in Northern Italy. In Milan there is a good and somewhat expensive restaurant, called Lentini's, and they charge €7. Paying anything more than €5 needs a pretty good reason in the North, and to pay more than that or even that in South means you are getting ripped off.
margherita*
And pay in mind those are places around the richest parts of Italy, Milan and the lakes where all the money is.
nvm just checked the prices again. the margherita was 4.50
my b
it's cheap as fuck bro
if you don't mind, mcdonalds sometimes has really cheap promotions on the app
>squattheplanet
>open website
>see dedicated obituaries section
I hate to admit it but this made me laugh
6 is expensive, I've seen good Margherita as low as €4,5 around Lago Maggiore.
You'd think the pizza thing is a cliche but man is it good. It really doesn't matter where you buy it it'll still be a million times better than any pizza you ever ate.
But don't neglect their pasta too, bolognese and carbonara etc
Pizza was cheap ish back when i was there but ig with the fucked economy it'll be more expensive now. Just don't buy at the main tourist attractions, go into the side streets. Don't get ripped off.
pls don't say "bolognese" in italy
just say ragú
tbf carbonara is easy, grana and pecorino are fairly easy to find abroad, most people don't use guanciale in italy, so pancetta equivalent will work. rest is good eggs
I don't understand any of the words you are saying
bippiti boopity, i makeah da piiiiiizaaaa
WHATA YOU DO IN MY KITCHEN? DISRESPECT THE PENNE? THROW IT ON THE TABLE? WHAT IS MATTER WITH YOU?
>Proceeds to chase you outside with wooden spoon
le epik boomer meme
In Cambodia now. I'd do this, but a hostel with a bed, fan and show is $4 so why?
Maybe I'll try it if Japan ever lets dirty foreigners in again.
It only truly makes sense in 1st world countries, i.e. Europe, NA and East Asia. Europe definitely being the most fun out of three.
I spent some weeks in Saint Lucia after sailing there once, I slept hidden away in some bushes by the beach one night, and I slept in the cemetery next to the airport another night. Does this count as vagrant?
I thoroughly enjoyed his videos, but i think the main reason i enjoyed them is because he's doing the opposite of what i am, he's free, if you watched his video you notice he does not change the way he talks, if he's alone, in a crowded space, or in a japanese sanctuary full of people praying
He doesn't care, he's living life as he sees fit.
When i'm done with all my work (around September) i'm taking my meager savings and i'm going on a long vacation. i think i have an old sleeping bag my grandpa gave me years ago too..
i hitchhked from france to bulgaria eating shitty food from my camping cooker, sleeping in the bushes behind gas stations and being an overall hobo. shit was cash
Now this is vagrancy. What a fucking lad. You could gladly sleep in my yard.
Are euros really checking on return tickets now to enter?
>now
Always have.
I don't buy that he can go a month, not even 5 days without showering and not be repelling to people, even if he has chad looks.
Otherwise I like his videos and would like to trainhop someday
In cold weather I can probably make it to 3-4 days without smelling or my hair getting greasy
He routinely shacks up with other people (mostly women) he meets on the way. He's also shown ability to sneak into hotels for free shit, so scoring a free shower isn't out of the question. All that aside paying for a shower at a gym is cheap.
How does he manage clothes?
Seems he travels with the clothes he wears and nothing else. How tf does he clean them?
From what I can tell he wears an undershirt, buttoned shirt and a coat plus jeans. Does he have 2 of each and just cleans one at a time? Or is he literally wearing the same shit for the whole trip?
He's used laundromats to dry his bivoauc, so he probably also washes his clothes there.
Yeh but surely he doesn't get naked for it, so he must carry a spare set which he's never shown on camera
Did it in japan, ended up stayin in the same park he did, only realized after I was in the same spot after I left so was pretty funny. Its pretty fucken freeing. Japan is the best ez mode place to do it as well
Tomorrow, I'm going. I'm thoroughly unprepared, I'm just gonna do it.
Wait I'm retarded, I'm going on the 18th, not tomorrow
Where are you going?
Milan, then just all around Italy.
Did you plan anything or...? Country side around Milan isn't amazing as it's very industrial, and you might want to avoid outskirts as it is a shithole (no one really considers it Milano anymore). Friuli and Venezia to the east have nice country side and a mix of plains, sea and Alps. Going south to Parma et al you get into what most people imagine Italy looks like, i.e., hilly countryside, small, beautiful towns with Renaissance art work and the best climate in the world. So, Toscana. Apennines are nice and have many pilgrim paths. Unlike Alps, the mountains rarely get very tall, so you are less likely to put yourself in danger by winding up on mountain tops in shit weather. Still, be considerate of rain and mudslides especially.
In Milan there's plenty of sights to see. It's not a bad city to go out either as there are probably more expats there than anywhere else in Italy (Firenze and Roma are probably the other two with most expats). Maybe avoid sleeping in most parks as there are still a few refugees left and they are camped out there, although they are easy to avoid as they have no problems looking conHispanicuous.
Good luck. And plan, plan and plan while you have the time.
Honestly, I have no fucking plan. I wrote down:
1: Spain
2: France
3: Sweden
4: Greece
5: Italy
6: Germany
And rolled a dice on it. Milan was the cheapest ticket into Italy at the time, Naples was the cheapest out without being Milan. Pic related is basically me but I think I'm gonna have fun.
ALSO - do yourself a massive favour and learn basic phrases, like asking if somebody speaks a little English, how to order XYZ, how to ask for directions to XYZ, how to ask for something a simple as where the water fountain is. Barely anyone, NOT even the young, speak much English. You'll find people who will understand you in touristic places, and I mean very limited spots that are nice, but boring, and I take it you don't want to limit yourself there, no? Even if you don't want to talk to anyone, you will find it useful to be able to if it becomes necessary. Rarely you might run into someone who speaks some Italian. When I hitchhiked, maybe 1 out of 20 people spoke enough for a very limited conversation. Even less so in the street.
>Italian.
some English*
Writing down 20 useful phrases on paper and committing them to your memory over the coming weeks is the least you can do for yourself. Even basic meme shit you'd get in Duolingo and Lingvist will help you a lot.
My knowledge of Italian starts at Mario and ends with Luigi.
The basic plan is Milan > Cities In the North > Rome > Naples and flight back is from there. I'll record my retardation.
Reporting from Milan, my shitty data does not work abroad so I asked for directions to a starbucks. I downloaded Google maps for here and visited a few places, will be heading for a place to sleep after I go to the Cathedral
Based anon actually delivering.
install openstreetmaps, it gives way more context to what you're looking for, like fields, bushes, etc.
start your own thread, i gotta see how this plays out.
Vagrant traveling becomes lame once you begim to rely on other people for food or money or transport, you just become a leech having fun at other people's expense. IMO the ideal is some kind of middle ground, take a motorcycle or something and a wad of money and just go wherever your imagination takes you.
Or just have a debit card and do whatever the fuck you want you dumb retard
I slept in a cafe in Tokyo for free because I was too lazy to go to my hotel. Woah that was super fun and whacky I'm so crazy, no some humans just enjoy doing literally whatever the fuck they want and don't need an excuse to be that way. I don't need to strip naked to indulge in asshole vagrant activities.
