But will they make it MORE illegal than breaking and entering to squat?

Hello all! My name is Robbie, a housing reporter for Stateline, a nonprofit news outlet covering state and city policy, I hope you are all doing well! I want to be transparent and say that I am looking for perspectives and interviews from squatters for a national news story I'm working on...

When Rebecca Twigg was 7, she rode a bike for the first time. There were no training wheels, but Twigg took off like she’d done it in a previous life. She fell only when she realized she didn’t know how to stop, and steered into a wall. “I took to the road like I was born to do it,” Twigg says...

Greetings from near Montecorice, Italy (south of Salerno and Paestum). Here is my current situation: I'm fairly close to some houses so I'm hoping i won't end up needing to move tonight. (I'm close to the coastal road as well, so I'm wearing my Sony WH-1000XM4's to reduce the noise. It's not a...

This is an article from 1996 I randomly came across today. Walking a long journey has been something I've wanted to do for years. This is old new, but the way this guy says "if a 43-year-old guy who's out of shape, a smoker and 20 pounds overweight can do it, then damn it, anyone can" made me...
