the WORST city i’ve ever stealth camped ALONE in…. Gunshots? Theft?

[@IzzyOnTheMove]

Sounded like fireworks. Loved the "castle." I live right across the river from Quebec city so I actually see a castle from my bed 😊

[@fredricjulien8738]

Good to hear that you've had enough of big city stealth camping. That dude walking down the sidewalk while the gunshots were going off didn't seem too concerned. He must have been a local. 😂 Goodbye Philly,.. hello Spring! ☘🌞 🥰

[@imgoodru2840]

I 100% respect your courage & guts... for sleeping here. Its a super tough place to live; however a lot of good ppl too. Be safe in your travels... plz carry mace ok.

[@tori8380]

The video you shot out of your skylight at night was so cool 🎉 it did look like a castle.

15:15 - LoL! Sometimes you just have to listen to the cosmic energy and bug out on a situation. Glad you made the most of it though. Plus, you got this sweet shot during the magic hour! Continued safe travels, Tory!

[@ToryDelury]

Agreed! I tried to make the best of the day regardless, Thank you so much! ☺️💐

It was Al Capone, not AL Pacino.😅

whoa geeez that whole experience seems crazy! I don't think I could have slept at all that close to a bar. Philly can definitely get pretty sketchy at night. Loving your vlogging videos! Hope you have safer travels on your trip across country.

Thank you so much!! ☺️💐

[@heathermills4657]

So sorry your time in our city was scary, Philly is bad but it depends on the area too

[@draftmaverick]

😂😂😂 glad you made it through safe.. the Al Pacino slander, though! You meant Al Capone

[@raymondszmigiel7627]

Growing up and still living the Philly area, I found your video entertaining and interesting to watch. Yes, Philly does have a problem with crime and gun violence, but then again, most big cities do. The last two years, Philly has averaged well over 500 homicides. Towards the end of the video, you mentioned that Al Pacino stayed at the Eastern State Penitentiary. I think you meant Al Capone. While visiting Philly in 1929, he was pinched by the Philly PD for carrying a gun. He spent a year at Eastern State and used to have dinner with the warden on most Sundays. When I visited the prison, they have fixed up the cell where he stayed to look like it did in 1930. But the Philly Gardens is a very interesting place to see and popular place to visit. While Philly does have several arts-related museums, the Garden is much more accessible, and the city also has a lot of mural arts.

[@d.n.8919]

If you want to get out of the big cities but still go somewhere where there's something to do I suggest Asheville, NC. If you want to go really small, Yellow Springs, Ohio is a cute hippie town with lots of cute shops.

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

Yes! Asheville is a great idea for Tory!

[@TheAbandonedAccount7]

Wow that was brave! Didnt know you were so close to me! Coulda met up and got lunch or something lol. Yea, I'd say outskirts of philly, in the suburb where I live, are much better for stealth camp. Lots of airport parking lots, UPS parking lot on hog island, or even hotels.

[@lyfandeth]

Those were fireworks. Spend a half hour at an outdoor shooting range, your ears will remember the different sound.

[@rocketdude2969]

Gun shots , partying and crazy people .....are you in Philly or Texas . I hear and see that stuff all the time . Plus I work retail so it extra fun . I'm glad your safe and on the road Tory . If your in Central Texas I recommend find a walmart parking lot to park in . There is one near me and they welcome campers and trucks . Safe travel Tory 😊.

Yeah, it’s one of those words I’ve read a lot but never heard aloud. 😅 And I found them on iOverlander & then just by Googling Casinos in the area.

[@stevenhartley7659]

That philidephia gardens demostrated to me how much idle time people have to create all that to serve very little purpose. It must be quite the luxsury to have all that time without needing to earn money to eat and cloth your self and family.

Interesting vlogs. Btw, there is no such word in English as "penatissery". The word is peni-TEN-tiary(*shury). Sorry, I'm not the grammar police, just a weary, retired English teacher. You should be sure to stop in to a really fantastic little city in SC called Greenville. Very safe, with lots to see and do.

The ice cream machine LIE is happening everywhere on the east coast. Listen closely, they actually say “It’s broken down” most of the time. Meaning they took it apart, cleaned it, and didn’t put it back together. Happens alllllll the time. I would love for a McDonald’s employee to tell me why they hate doing ice cream so much. 😂😂😂😂 Burger King almost always has their ice cream machine up & working so go there or DQ next time. (;

Sounds like you need to stay in the smaller towns,that are outside of the bigger city's,as you Cross the country . But Anymore almost all area's are like that but do be safe and have you checked the solar panels for being dirty and They May look clean, but usually their not and Rob ALOT of power from getting into the batteries and you could stealth camp with a electric blanket. Hooked into the solar system at night. But I do enjoy your travels and hope to do The Same Thing one day..... And also get to meet you, but until then be safe.....
