@toastwoozi thanks man, appreciate it. I get sick of listening to myself sometimes but in a 10 minute video I feel I at least make a couple good statements.
when i was homeless i would build primitive shelters with as much branches and garbage i could get my hands on just so i wouldnt freeze to death in the winter. id stay in an insulated pair of cover alls and would make a heater out of a few candles inside an upside down ceramic or terracotta flower pot sitting ontop of a few bricks. you can even use a metal bucket you just want to make sure you have it sitting up far enough on the bricks so the flame can get oxygen
But it's for ten cents... It's self serving. I went to Puerto Rico recently and was tripping at a waterfall and trails. There was trash but I didn't feel the need to share how we cleaned the place on line to show what punk living is . Dude is just a bum
@@jherring3889 no. He's not trying to be like you so you can't judge him by your standards.He is himself. I been there and the phone is the only point of contact you have. He will evolve.
@@jherring3889I'm only showing what my day is I don't give a F*** what anyone thinks of me. That bag of trash was not the cans I found. I explained that I just wanted something to do so I picked up trash. People make me wanna dump it in the F***ing street. Yes Bumlife is the name of my channel.
Don't mean a thing but you're my hero. I'm currently at a homeless shelter. This is therapy. Your content is a breath of fresh air. Living out of a pack can test who you are individually.
Whattup man - i really enjoy this. I like the drink reviews too but you should do more of this. Makes me feel like I'm listening to an old buddy. Stay up!
I was homeless from 15 to 30, im now 37 and have a family, wife, daughter and my own house(Still not used to paying rent lol) i also stopped using meth and heroin. You seem real chill and i wish you the best bro. Thanks for sharing a day in your life. Stay safe 🤘
Your videos really give me, a regualr 54 yr old 80's rocker from wayyy back a sense of hope and freedom man. Her i am stuck in a work from home GOVT. job with a son whos moving out soon and a wife of 31 yrs!!! yea we got married in 94. crazy. with one 17 yr old son.......i partied many yrs on opiates starting in the early 200's, finally got on methadone about 11 yrs ago. been stable since. love your channel man, never stop!!!! tanks and peace be with you on the trails n rails!!!!
Save up a few more cans and buy a decent tarp, like a DD or whatever. Look after it and i promise it will last you for a solid three years, or longer. This will save plastic, energy, money. Worth the investment 💚🖤
@@astrumdeus7098 I totally thought about that last time I was in Portland. New Orleans, various cities there just like oh another homeless punk we see am all the time. Or I might just be an eccentric hipster. Even Eugene no one really cares. Small rural towns I'm definitely I definitely stick out but the anxiety is just stuff in my head to overcome. Everything is always fine when I go out.
Hey buddy just stumbled onto your Channel. And subscribed. You're pretty badass. I enjoy your videos. Take care my new friend. Be safe and good luck to you
Get the silver/brown one, silver side up on grainers, brown side up on Canadian grainers/IM's, blends in great. I carry a 9x12, and having a hammock is worth it too, hang the tarp up the same way above it and then it doesn't matter if the ground sucks or you have to camp on the side of a hill/highway.
@@robertobrien7102 yeah it's always actually fine. Just shit in my head to overcome. I think that's part of why living outside is better for my mental health it forces me to go out. I feel like shit if I stay inside a house all day.
I feel exactly the same about trash. I litter while in cities and overall feel angrier and have more disdain for others in cities, but in nature I never litter and like to talk to random people.
After conquering most of the known world, Alexander the Great sought to meet the philosopher Diogenes, found basking in the sun. He told Diogenes he would grant him anything he wished with his great power. So Diogenes requested only that Alexander step to the side because he's blocking his sunlight lol.
@@floorbeef I've been there. Not a huge fan of SoCal. SLO ain't too bad for a short time. Santa Barbara is pretty but I don't like it because a bus driver was an asshole to me & generally a very upper class place with people suspicious of bums.
Have you ever considered setting up like a semi permanent camp site deep in the woods? Feel like you could watch a couple quick survival videos and have a pretty nice little camp set up, with a bed made of thicker twigs, rock walls to retain heat, ect…
@@thegrowshow5940 I've thought about it. I know one place with an abandoned house I could probably even squat in. I like the Idea of having a nice camp set up but unless I'm camping with friends or something it's like what am I gonna do here all day? Drink beer & watch porn on my phone? I guess that's part of why most people have jobs or go to school which neither of those things really interest me. I've got the "Travel Addiction" to keep me occupied. But perhaps later in my life I may set up a camp somewhere after I've been everywhere & my body starts to crap out. I've always thought if I stayed somewhere I could brew my own booze in a bucket, I did that when I was living indoors & working but still bought more booze to have variety.
@bumlife666 I understand that, but I think your daily desire to fill time would be filled naturally… always gonna having to be chopping wood, or collecting water, or fishing or somehow hunting for fresh meat… in other words, just live off the grid 100% and use what money you have or collect for your wants like beer or liquor. I do respect you not littering in the woods. As a “tax paying American” that’s the one thing I don’t like about a big majority of the homeless population. Leaving their surroundings destroyed. Good to see people like you trying to make up for that.
@thegrowshow5940 Yeah I like the idea of living off grid 100 percent, I believe in that ethically, but I probably would get bored & lonely. I talk about the logistics of that some in my video called "Civilization" . Most of the trashy homeless camps are due to Meth addiction & or Mental illness so I try not blame them too much, & just like many people can't keep a clean house same thing when those people get pushed outside. I was always OCD about keeping my house clean when I lived inside.
@@thegrowshow5940 Most housed tax paying Americans if pushed onto the streets they'd make a fucking mess. When I go dumpster diving in Oregon people are always like " don't make a mess" I'm like it's all the people who live here overflowing the dumpster with refundable cans & perfectly useful items & food. Boxes in the trash, cat litter in the recycling bin etc.
I like lndustrial & Sludge/Doom shit, as well as mainstream shit like Pantera & early Metallica. But I like harder stuff too , dystopia which is kinda punk etc....
I just discovered your channel, I can’t believe bum life wasn’t taken. I’m in the Seattle area and have some gear I’d be happy to give you. Like a 9’ x 9’ canvass tarp. Also have you used a decent hammock? Message me if you’re interested . I have an IG you can message me through. Great videos .
I understand your view on our deteriorating society but it seems like you take a hateful approach to everything. You need to find happiness in yourself bro. I can see it in your eyes that inside you’re hurt. I’ve been you before. I have a home, car, full time job. It’s not fulfilling at all but I’ve learned to love myself and learned that I don’t need people in my life to accept me. We all end up in the dirt in the end. I hope you don’t take this comment in the wrong way but I know deep down you are a good person you just need to find love within yourself.
This one might be kind of slow & boring. You don't have to watch it. Filmed in Oregon back in mid October.
nah its cool. i like listening to your thoughts

Is this in Alton baker park?
Not boring at all I love your every videos
I love all ur uploads dude. I rode trains for 3 years solo and it's lonely as fk. It's nice to vibe with people sometimes

Be you bro… you are a rare gem in this lost world. At least you kno who you are and what you want.
I love your spirit and insight you remind me of shoestring, stay positive and always question everything or you will never learn anything.

@@DerrickPark-qw9pi a pack is better than a shelter in my opinion. But perhaps not if you are seeking employment & housing.
I never leave a camp either. Set it up when needed and pack it up time to go. Less is more

You just sit under the tarp when it rains, what about underneath you, doesn’t it get muddy or not really?
It depends on the ground & how long it rains for
