So I set out one day to try and do a time lapse video of the Slab City library, but unfortunately I set the angle far too wide, so it wasn't quite what I was going for. Rather than delete it though, I figured I'd go ahead and share it here for anyone that's interested.

Here's a short video showing what the kitchen looks like after a major sandstorm came through, caking almost everything in a fine layer of dirt.

In this video I take a look at the trading circle that happens every Saturday in Slab City. Also, my friend Balu is grilling a pig to share with folks in the slabs, and I end this day showing off just one of the many epic sunsets we get out here.

Sorry this one is so short, I didn't really have time to plan out this video so I just cut together a few shots of getting this tattoo in Slab City today.

Every once in a while in Slab City you'll see a black column of smoke in the distance, which usually means someone's camper or camp is on fire. In this video we went to go check it out since occasionally people need help putting the fires out. Sent from my LG-H815 using the Squat the Planet...

Hey folks, I'm playing around with a few ideas for doing a video travel blog, so here's something I filmed and edited using nothing but my cell phone. I just covered my day running to town to get supplies for the Slab City library, so take a look and let me know what you think.

Hey folks, for those of you that were unable to come out to this year's Dirty Scouts Jamboree, I'm writing this to briefly fill you in on what you missed and give folks a place to post their thoughts, pictures, and videos of the event. Due to time constraints, I'm compiling all the video I took...

Another good video from the Exploring Alternatives YouTube channel, check em out, lots of good stuff there. This video is a tour of a couple's van and how they converted it from scratch, so basically more vandweller porn to drool over if you're looking for ideas to convert your vehicle.

I thought this video was worth sharing because it goes into quite a bit of detail about what it's like to live on one of these boats and some of the logistics involved with the lifestyle. Definitely worth watching to see what it's like to live on a boat in a canal (and outside the usa).

haha, i was thinking, wondering, hoping, that someone out there that's going to the jambo (or someone in the slabs) knows how to tattoo semi-decently? I have a stupid-easy cover up i want done on my wrist (three thick black lines) and if i could find someone to do it, I figure i could buy a...

This van is pimp as fuck, i'd love to get a class b myself. Great video if you're looking for ideas for your van:

"Bicycle touring through the Sierra Nevada, Death Valley, Utah, Colorado Rockies, and to my destination in Nebraska. Music composed by me with samples from Garageband iOS." It's a long video, but if you want to get an idea of what a ride like this looks like, he's done an excellent job of...

I thought this video on putting together a yurt was pretty cool, so I thought I'd share it here. They also have a lot of other good videos about van dwelling, tiny houses, boat living, etc.

Hey folks, as some of you might know, I've been making plans to do a bike tour down the west coast via the 101 highway. My goal is to bike from Astoria, Oregon to Slab City, California and arrive in time for StP's Dirty Scouts Jamboree in October. I've done a few small bike tours before, but...

Hey folks, just wanted to let you all know about this interview I did with the Cake or Death Radio podcast. Melanie and her partner drove all the way up from San Antonio to meet up with me in Austin, Texas to chat a bit about the Squat the Planet website, my background, and my personal...

@Buffalo linked to this article that was pretty interesting, so i thought I'd repost it here for the rest of the community. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/13/nyregion/13trees.html?_r=1 In Central Park, Finding a Bed Among the Trees Cory and Dana Foht, 25-year-old twins from Florida, have...

So I've had the idea for a while to do a story telling contest around the campfire for a while, but recently @Geraldo gave me the great idea of giving away special prizes to those that weave the best (true) stories of the road. Specifically, the prizes would be custom scouts badges, much like...

I thought this was a pretty good video tour of a really nice van. Definitely gives me that van dwelling itch :)

This is a pretty good video since it does list the prices of things in Thailand right now and the video really gives you a good sense of what it's like to live there.

Saw an article about this a while back, so I saw this video which kinda shows it from a first person perspective (and in video instead of an article).
