I'm sure other people will have good advice to give you, but i can tell you sleeping rough in cities is generally pretty easy, and fairly low-risk. I typically bury my wallet somewhere I can find it again in the morning, and then sleep somewhere fairly central. Look at google maps for big parks with vegetation to hide in.

how good are your blowjob giving skills?

What kind of weather do you expect? If it's gonna look like typical late fall, I would recommend you to find a possibly warm building where you can sleep in a staircase or somewhere

I have some experience staying for free in towns, just from when i do thru hikes and hitch into town near the end of the day and decide to spend the night but dont want to pay for a place to stay, the main thing is just finding a low light, low travel area, most places you can just lay down and nobody will notice you but sometimes it feels like public areas are built to be anti homeless when you are trying to find a spot

underneath a staircase, under a picnic table, in a bush, alleyway, public park, gazebos, homeless shelter, picnic shelter one time i even just asked a person if i could sleep on their porch and they said yeah

my only other tip is dont set up your bed while its light out or people are around, just hang out and then once its dark enough set up your bed and be sure to get up and go before dawn

Serious reply here from one of those obnoxious backpacker types..... stay in an airport, they are open 24/7, very secure and warm compared to a train station or bus station. Even if you aren't flying you can get a bus there.

I don't know what the fuck everyone else is smoking but I disagree with pretty much all of the advice here so far.

If you're traveling to take an exam, you 100% have to prioritize your sleep, comfort, nutrition, and overall wellbeing so this whole trip isn't a complete waste. Maybe on the leg home you can be a bum, but absolutely not the days or hours leading up to it.

Do not sleep on a bench, do not sleep in an airport (that will be so so far from where you're going anyway, it won't save you any trouble to go to the nearest airport for a few hours, that anon is literally retarded), do not find an alley or a dry piece of concrete. If you're legit traveling to take an exam (assuming attaining some kind of qualification) I can guarantee you can find people to look after you overnight, even if it's just finding a hostel (c'mon like $30 a night some places, depending where you are).

Or just borrow money temporarily from anyone. DO NOT DO A FUCKING HOMELESS WEEKEND just to make this work. You'll be dead tired to your bones and that defeats the whole point. Don't do any of this shit, please.

>t. someone who has been a traveling backpacker for years, and then nearly homeless for a year, and then actually homeless, and then after so much toil I crawled back into society. the moment I hit a bench in a state park I was 100% gone forever, one day playing homeless wrecks your whole place in life. if it wasn't for two very caring friends I wouldn't be back to good.

Anyway my point is, if this one thing on one day is important, just do it properly.

Have you been to an airport in the last 23 years? They don't let you past the ticket counter anymore unless you have a ticket. Sleeping in the terminal doable but where the fuck are you going to sleep in front of the ticket counter and baggage drop off?

ok nancy reagan. let me guess you took one hit of meth and became addicted for life too..

>>2850331
This exam, is it at a college or university?
Whats the rough temperature you're dealing with?
Do you have a car to work with or you're on public transport?

>>2850389
ive slept at the baggage carousel area a few times. if you look like a normal person its even comfier. if anyone messes with you just say you took an early flight cause it was way cheaper and your friend wont be up until like 8am to come get you or some shit.

>>2850378
Seconding this. I've been all over the US and Europe living in airports. Once spent a year living in an airport when I was younger and very poor. Airports are the way to go.

I’m not him but I can tell you haven’t experienced what he’s talking about.

The worst part of being homeless is the sleeping. You can’t let your guard down ever and you train yourself to become hyper aware of everything. I haven’t been homeless in 10 years and I still haven’t gone back to normal sleeping patterns and I’m an extremely light sleeper. There’s a reason every homeless person looks like they age 5 years for every one normal year and it’s not the drugs and alcohol. The lack of comfort is insanely unhealthy

Bro it's just camping with a little more hiding than usual.

>>2850331
Depending on where you are, there might be some anons who can lend you a couch for the evening. I know I would, and taking an important exam on shitty hobo sleep is a bad idea. I assume you're totally broke, but if you have the money, you shouldn't try to save it by sleeping outside.
Whatever you do, don't go to shelters or anything. Concealing yourself is your biggest priority.

>>2850378
This is what i did, staying in a train station actually, open 24/7
>>2850382
All hotels are full
>>2850446
Problem solved, thanks anons sleeping in train station

>>2850447
Let me know how that goes. Train stations are bastards if you even miss a train and try to fall asleep in a chair from exhaustion.

>>2850447
not hotels, hostels.

>>2850404
You'd get thrown out

>>2850436
And being woke up by a cops spot light or waking up with a tweaker trying to light you on fire

>>2850331
i can't say these might work but you could try :
> go to a church and ask someone nicely
> if your tinder game is decent then find a chick and stay over her place for the night (possible additional benefits)
