How it’s going
Update: A few months ago, my car’s transmission went out. I lost my car and no longer have it as a place to live. I mailed my stuff back to my parent’s house, and lived out of a backpack throughout Asia. Australia, and New Zealand for 3 months. Read about it here.
Previous entry: It’s been going well! I have learned so much about the world, the universe, and myself. I’ve discovered what my soul yearns for, and constantly follow my heart. Like anything in life, there are ups and downs, but mostly ups. I’ve gained so much life EXP and survival skills, and my country exploration progress is at 68%.
Some unforgettable experiences I’ve had on my journey:
I fell down a waterfall and slid down it like a water slide. It was terrifying because I didn’t know where the falls was going to spit me out. But honestly it was kind of fun too LOL (North Carolina)
I fell on a cliff. Not off but I fell off a rock on a cliff but it was inland enough that I didn’t fall off the cliff. I had a minor injury. (Virginia)
My car fell in a ditch. I spent hours waving down people with trucks to help tow me out, but ended up paying $145 for a tow truck to pull me out. (Gatlinburg, Tennessee)
I did a butt naked cartwheel in the middle of the road on top of a mountain during a hardcore rainstorm. Don’t ask for details on that xD (North Carolina)
I blew a fuse in my car trying to cook ramen for dinner. Spent my birthday 2021 learning how to replace a fuse (it’s not hard but they gave me the wrong fuse) and I had to drink a protein shake for dinner. I was very very hungry. (Nashville, Tennessee)
An alligator took a shit in the middle of the road while I was trying to escape a lightning storm on a beach. I was stuck waiting for it to finish its business and he left a massive piece of shit in the middle of the road lol. This was on my birthday (2022) XD. (South Carolina)
I was so confident in my sleeping spot I decided not to wear pants. Turns out I went to the wrong place and security came to kick me out. I couldn’t find my pants so I answered the door without pants… (North Carolina)
I decided to charge my sex toys right next to my face and knocked out. Police came to tell me I couldn’t sleep there but he’ll let me off this time, I was half asleep and didn’t realize I answered the door with 3 sex toys next to my face and it wasn’t discreet at all LOLOL (Connecticut)
An icicle fell on my head. Luckily it wasn’t sharp! (Colorado)
I slept in less than 8 degrees Fahrenheit. I decided this was a good time to invest in heated Airbnbs. The condensation from me breathing froze inside the car. So there was frost on and around me in the car. (Colorado)
