My Awesome Hobo Cousin's Yukon Trip

Postby Masato » Thu Mar 19, 2015 11:23 am

Hey all

I am grateful in this life to have some very cool cousins scattered all over the world... One of my very favorites is a cousin in BC (homebase is near Victoria, maybe greenseed will cross paths one day) who for the most part is a real-life travelling hobo-artist-anarchist musician sort of dude

He has travelled all over Canada literally riding the rails (hoppin on freight trains), and roaming around with little to no cash in his pocket. Wildly talented musician, poet etc... and fully disengaged mentally, physically, and spiritually from the rat race system.

A true artist, one of the last of a dying breed. He inspires me.

He just posted some pics from his recent adventure to the Yukon with his hobo girlfriend, living/travelling in an old converted Dodge travel van:

That dude probably knows some of my hippy family out there.

Hey dude I'm actually coming to Vic at the end of June for 1 week.

Where are you? My schedule is pretty tight but who knows, maybe we can cross paths somehow. Come out with me and my hobo cousin!
