I have seen some unique ideas with stealth camping

 

[pshcrmth]

Unique? tell me about it! i was stealth (not extreme way, just try to make my spot not too much visible) tent camping in outskirts of big city for almost 9 months straight, and just to clarify i started in November few days before my bday just as a few day camp and somehow i choose stay houseless for a longer while.

and just to clarify bit more, in that point for most of the time i was keeping my regular chef work and side hustle as construction worker helper

Times are tough, and people have to do what they have to do. It's a dire scenario, being outdoors. That being said squatting is exactly the same as stealing with a couple of added steps, so depending on who the owner is, I like it or hate it. If an individual owns the property you are stealing and performing a disservice to a person, if it's a corporate owned property, it's more like shoplifting, a petty light version of stealing.

I grew up in a town with a mostly abandoned mental health state hospital, a good 8 or so building on a few hundred acres all connected by tunnels.a few of the buildings still had water going to them and two had electric. My step pops gorilla grew pounds every summer on the roofs honestly to this day might have been the coolest thing I've ever done
