Leave the GPS at home.

I hitchhiked all the way to Vancouver Island from Central Alberta with nothing more than $20 about 6 years ago. Pissed my folks off right good too.

It took me, 3 weeks, just to get there. I took the bus back. I hated not having a home. I was cold all the time, hungry, scared, I didn't sleep. It was horrible. I had to beg for change like a bum, people swore at me, spit on me, threw their food scrappings at me.

My advice, stay home. You'll miss breakfast and warm showers. :thumbsup:
