    Hello rossy.
    I'm serious about this. I know I've been giving my pal Cole the run around, but I'm just trying to keep my stash of money ready. I also wanted to find some shitty van that will work well for a while. But if that does not happen in a few days I'm checking that off my list of things to accomplish. I'm very happy that there are others wanting to travel. We can start our own community and live free, free like America was born to be. So lets keep this on mind and in our spirit. Nothing can fail if we have the heart to go through with our dreams. And again things may be bumpy, but we will just learn from those bumps on the road which we will travel on. So peace to all.
    And stay in contact.

    I too am seeking a reliable Van, Seemed to be much easier the last time I went looking for one. If you come across any good ideas on finding one let me know. So far classifieds and lookin around arn't helping. However, if there is anyone out there in the pacific Northwest looking for a travel companion I'm good company! :)
    Done it once before on my lonesome with no radio/heat/ac/speedometer. I'd really like to try roadin' it with other folks for a change. I'm beginning to think I'm all alone in the rainyday parade. Where are the clowns? SEND IN THE CLOWNS! wait thats me... (ive got the make up and everything ^_^)

    my husband and I have spent the last 3 years mainly traveling and working along the way. Hotel jobs for independents (not major chains) are pretty good as you can usually work for a free room and a little salary. In our stint in Eugene OR, we went to a great place called Sundance (a food market) and read the free boards outside. We found families needing assistance with building greenhouses, caretaking, etc in exchange for food and lodging. Just some ideas for those of you wanting to travel. Not gonna lie though, sometimes its quite tough! We have had to donate plasma for money but have never gone without a roof over our head. If seeing the world (or at least country) is what you desire, then it is quite possible! Just keep your chin up and set out on the open road!

    I've dreamed of forming a traveling gypsy band, I can feel it soo bad!

    I'm gonna strap my traveling shoes on here in about a week and take off.
    from seattle down all the way along the coast until i hit mexico. if i can get a passport i'm gonna truck on through mexico and latin america. hey anyone's welcome to join for however long they like.

    i'm thinking of riding a bike until i get tired of that and hitchiking. i make a little hemp jewelry here and there and i'm going to try and find a flute somewhere down the line and play everywhere i go. god, i love to play- just want to walk down the street playing all day ....just carrying a tarp and blanket, a couple spare clothes, good book, and whathave you to keep it real light and keep the light..

    hey all you guys in the u.s. who want to take off soon should definitely hit up the west coast. it's pretty hitchhiker/homeless friendly i've come to find. see you on the road :)

    good times....

    Hey people of the cosmic thought. Just want to say , I have my bags packed and in 3 mystical days I will be on my way. So if anyone around the forums are still pondering to leave or not let me know, ASAP.

    P.s. Cole I tried calling you yesturday, I think it's the 310 number , but I will try again. Peace

    Salaams to you guys.

    I was planning on being on the road by now;
    but, things kind of crapped out ~hehe.

    I'm gone in two months at the most,
    back home to the east coast <(^_^<)
    then off to wherever.

    Heading out from the Nez Perce Indian Resevation in northern Idaho
    Sure could use a bud for the trip.
    Guaranteed massive party once we get to the coast,
    'cause my bro who I was going to travel with just signed away
    four years to a college and we're gonna party it out first.
    hehe, <(^_^<) <(^_^)> (>^_^)>

    grouve on to it, dudes and freakei dudesses!
