midcat is trying to muster the courage to overcome...
I like the gypsy stile of traveling!! I have always though of doing exactly this! I figured that I could get into a small town and look for a restaurant and offer to do some odd jobs in exchange of food, and see if they know anyone who could offer a place to spend the night in exchange for some work.
I though about this for a long time, I actually figured I would take my cellphone, camera, GPS, AAA membership, laptop, and a wireless internet acct. This way I could give some peace of mind to my family.
I would also make a blog about all the places I visit and I would have my web address on a sticker in my car, that way people could log in and let me know where they spotted me!
If you ever do this, let me know!! I would love to meet you when you come to Arizona!.
