I need to get away, got money saved up and ready to make a big escape soon.

Learn how to sail, get a free crew gig to anywhere

If you're looking for peace of mind, happiness, love, or the ability to love others, look no further than within yourself.

Running away will not satisfy your hunger for these things.

The only thing you will be escaping is facing your own fears.

Man up, get productive, eat right, exercise. You will be too tired to wish for something you have already.

wurd

Alaska still has a lot of places you can get "loner jobs", as well as homestead.

That'd be pretty nice!

Slab City. Look it up on Youtube.

Yes, but Alaska is terrible for being expensive, and supplies and basics are gouged. The locals are creepy in some parts too.

Dude.. Go to coolworks.com and get a job that also has accommodations. They pay well, feed you and give you a cheap place to live (sometimes free). They always need people in the spring and summer. Most pristine places left in America from Alaska TO everywhere. Montana has many on there. Do it quick. People already looking!

This is a GREAT resource.

Thank you so much!

Damn, You nailed, rural living in Tennessee...hey, I know this river where You can catch a lot of trout, rainbows and brown's...

$1000 might be enough for a dental emergency. you need a lot more than that.

I did it without the vagrancy, Boston to California, with less than a grand. Lived out of my car. Took a week to get across the conus, didn't stop expect to buy weed and sleep and eat. I showered at planet fitness along the way. Got a job in the first month. Been enjoying the change of scenery.



You can't run from your problems by moving to another state, but wheenever you make changes to better yourself or just a calculated risk pitting yourself against nature,

The universe will respond to this by accelerating your "karma".

Go with it. It'll lead u where you are going to end up.

Stay away from Oregon they murder white people and get away with it.

Lavoy was his name I believe.

Bump

and for sharing your story!

I have felt exactly this since i can remeber.

I struggled to get exactly what you want right now.

I have sacrificed and am on the verge now of obtaining 350 acres of property up north.

I think i can help you.

Don't rush into things.

Trust me, you can obtain what you want very quickly with some sacrifices and hard work.

What i wish i knew a decade ago

he needs a car.......

yeah, slab city, free living at least for now. but I think Agenda 2030 will shut it down in the future.

Try N. Minnesota. People aren't very political here. Lots of wide open spaces, forests, and lakes. Winters are harsh but if you like winter sports, there's plenty of things to do there, winter or summer. Clean air, friendly people.

You're welcome. I went to E. Glacier last spring. My rent was only $9.00 a day. 1 free meal. Got a great hourly wage plus mega tips. Just don't get in with the wrong crowd. Find people who want to go on adventures in their free time.
The regulars will tip you off on the next gig if you want to winter somewhere. Good luck and have a WONDERFUL time!! It will be awesome.

Yes, a car is invaluable asset.

If you don't have one, get one..

(As a prepper, i would usually go for something that can do decent off road, something i can live out of short term.

I bought an SUV, whose seats can fold down in the back, into a perfect amount of space to hold a single bed.

Roof racks, a back up storage container..

Solar panels, they have survived on my suv for 2 years, quickly done and cheaply.

I stick a fan in the middle to trade air, powered by hidden solar panels..

You might want into gettng an AZ ..

LONG HAUL.



It turned out to be a dream job.

How about not being a freeloader and contibute whatever skills you do have to society.

What do you know OP?

Surely you have something to contribute?

Or do you really just want to be a leech?

Ive been homeless. Lived in the national forest for 6 months in Colorado.
Was not fun but learned a hell of a lot about myself.

If you truly want to escape it all, well then your fucked with just a grand.

Yes, but do the great lakes.

You would really ... Really have to know your shit.

Here you go, find your area on the map! [link to www.helpx.net (secure)]

Look, I get where you're coming from but I have made several different comments already about my skills in construction, handyman/maintenance work and I've done roofing, painting, some carpentry, etc. That's not counting experience in food service, retail, tech support, graphic design, marketing, blog/web development and so on.

When I said I wanted somewhere homeless/vagrant friendly I meant places that would have missions or shelters in place where I could stay while looking for work. I've been homeless before and never asked a single person on the street for help other than getting meals at a soup kitchen and even then when I was in that situation I took every opportunity I could to volunteer to carry my weight.

Nowhere did I say I wanted to be a leech or a boon on society. Though I appreciate your bluntness, I did need to clarify that for you because I feel you are seriously misunderstanding what I'm saying here and perhaps that is my fault so I hope that clears things up a bit.

Go to hawaii. put 5k down on some cheap land on the big island, if you look you can find cheap acre lots covered in only a thin crust of lava that can be broken up and deep fertile soil below. Build a cheap off grid shack and stick a HEPA filter in there for VOG if you buy anywhere southwest of volcano (such as oceanview estates) With even 5k sqft lot you can grow all your own food an acre would make a nice homestead
