    I'm serious I want to live on the road or at leat find a commune. I'll go with either of you guys. I'm sick of my town and I want to start anew. I'm 20 years old and I've never traveled on the road before. I'm leaving on my own anyhow in the next month or so if not sooner. I would rather travel with someone though.

    Well flowerchild dont be in such a rush to grow up at least physically. Gorw up mentally learn who you are and what your place in the world is. Learn from your mistakes and watch your life as an observer whenever you have some time to to see who you are to others. Be Happy JEff
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Well this post is almost to the 1000 mark on views WOW!!
    I have talked to many from this post yet i am still traveling alone.
    So far i had a few in mind but they either did not keep up the conversation or just had nothing to say. I had a few i may of taken if they worked on communicating with me more and did not leave it all up to me to keep talking to them. I have not met anyone to blow me away yet to make me know they would be cool. Guys girls aliens i really do not care if they just showed me in talking to me that they would be a good risk to take. My ideal was someone with thier own ride then i would not have to think about it so much and we could hook up and just see how it go's. Everyone has wanted to be in my passenger seat which mean i will have to putting forth all the effort for them to be with me. I admit i am scared to take someone who will just waste my time and money life has been quite and calm and i kind of get scared to have drama come into it. IF someone trully wants my passenger seat then they need to work at showing me who they are. Show me they understand who i am from what they have read and from our conversations.
    If i have to put the effort into talking to them all the time and they do not look to put the effort into talking to me i will just blow them off as quite a few who i have talked to hear have found out. I do not mind paying for a ticket for someone to come out here and help them get there business going so they make money of there own. I do not mind sharing my space and having to give up things that i am used to doing by myself to make it easier for someone who was special. Young old i really do not care accept they be of legal age or not be in a nursing home. All someone has to do is show me they are special and they are not one fo those many i hide from now.
    Sigh i am so lucky i have such a relationship with my dogs that being without humans is not so hard. I have so much to offer to those people who are trully wanting to make an awesome life on the road and be free to go anywhere and do anything they want in life. So few want to put the effort into thier own lives to care about anything but the moment.
    I have met some silly people here to people who answered my post and pretty much showed they read nothing of what i wrote and where almost everything i would be weary to be around.
    Well i know that is not going to change for i meet few people who trully know who they are and think about thier lives and where they are going.
    I do not know what made me different so many years ago when i met my mentor who taught me about the road and he made my whole life open up and helped me find peace and happiness for the first time. I always asked him why i have met so few who wanted the same and to date i was the only person he ever met who actually listened to him and made a life for myself.
    Well i will not give up and maybe God will direct someone to one of my posts and help them say the things that will awake my inner self to wanting to take them. Well i guess i maybe just venting i am not really sad or anything sometimes the world just weary i have long ago accepted there is me and my dogs and a good chance this is what it will stay. I am now a grown up who does not want to be grown up but who does not fall into all the traps of a child. Sometimes i so wonder if i was 18 again with what i know now if life would be awesome i will never know in this life at least.
    So i end this saying anyone who likes the idea of traveling with a seasoned gypsy who has been on the road most of his life and looking to learn a few things and probally teach me a few things well then work at showing me who you are and lets see my passenger seat is still free for the right person.
    IF you got a car well a caravan would be nice and you would have alot more freedom of being able to come and go and still make a living and have a friend.
    Well that is it i am in carlsbad Nm now heading to Odessa Tx in the morning i hope you all an awesome and pleasant life
    JEFF

    Hey Roadgypsy this is jimjam i dont think we have ever talked. Well i am interested in learning what you know about surviving on the road and having personal freedom. To really know who i am and my purpose in this world, to be happy day in and day out. I know that what i really want to do is to just travel non stop from place to place. it all began when i was young on family vacations, all of the different people and scenery that you see and meet, is absolutly beautiful to me. I do have my own transportation im working on it right now, its a 72 volks bus very roomie. and will not need a ride. the bus should be fixed by the end of next month. I would really appreciate your reply to this. And we can talk more in depth if you can email me at lotof2@hotmail.com

    well thanks so much for your posts and take care.
    Peace Jim Jam

I am in wichita falls texas where i went to just as a last minute thought and made over 5000.00 here woo hoo alot of people are going to be happy i have money for them. My dogs are still bitchy and cuddley. I still eat to much smoke to many ciggies trying to be lazy and still find cuddling with my dogs one of my favorite pastimes. I am heading into oklahoma next week or the next and going to to oklahoma city and tulsa never been to okie before got to break out my oklahoma soundtrack and my okie from muskogeee song for the drive. Well i think that is about it for now still waiting to see if you get out here this summer.

    I have wanted to live my life on the open road for awhile now. Seeing so much beauty in the world through seeing all that she has to offer with each new day has got to be an amazing experience. I would like to see this life to the fullest and I believe experiencing life is the best way to see it. I love getting into philosophical discussions with other people and love using my imagination to create art. If you ever want to talk you can instant message me on aim: AnnaMoe160.
