Basicly,i have been thrwarted in backpacking europe from not having a visa,got there and got sent right back,tried to go on a bike tour from philly to mexico but got to DC and a ton of difficulties with my bike and what not...

So im trying again to set off on my grand journey,im goin to backpack mexico and south america on very little(Gear and money) working odd jobs and what not...just curious if anyone else has done this?

No time limit,leaving sometime at the end of jan. think the weather will be nice? greyhound or amtrak to get there(starting in mexico city) a friend is coming with but i know it will be dangerous...

What bout gear, want to pack as light as possible,rough it,sleep on streets but not in sketchy area,and depending on if i have the cash,hostels...

How do they feel about tattoos? im 20 and covered(face,hands,head etc) alot of beautiful women or just whorish ones?

Curious bout everything and any advice,just be and a backpack.

Here is my list of stuff im goin to bring so far...

Basketball shorts
Thermals
White tees
Windbreaker
Toiletries
Sockss
Undies
Ipod
Waterbottle.
Hat
Asic running shoes.
Headlamp
