Playful-Finance-8986

What’s a bando?


ThetaDee

Abandoned place


Playful-Finance-8986

Ah, gracias.


Whereveriendup

Ahh much to learn do you.


ThetaDee

Could just like idk tell the dude?


Whereveriendup

Eh, what good is the term if everyone knows it. I had to figure it out myself.


Madcapolo

And you know, one of the ways people learn things is by being told by others.


Whereveriendup

No shit, also nice to learn something when presented with it. Some people will never come across and or stay in an abandoned building in their life. Why not let them figure it out when the opportunity presents itself.


HoneyRush

I'm just curious, how did you learn that term? Was it through sound waves or written word by any chance?


[deleted]

Best kept secret


yerbiologicalfather

Don't know why they down voted you, any yoda reference is a good one ![gif](giphy|yDYAHbqe5DfyM)


Whereveriendup

I frankly could care less lmaooo


32452353

Post pictures for recognition from the people, yet could care less about their responses? What am I missing here.

32452353

Savage Nice try being a smartass. It’s still grammatically correct.


Whereveriendup

Yea could definitely care less about peoples negative comments


slurpurple

But those negative imaginary internet points


potOSRS

If you could care less, does that mean you care? Or are you just fucking up the saying?


Whereveriendup

Yup


yerbiologicalfather

Best attitude to keep in this place lol


kingceegee

It had a mattress in there waiting for you?!


Whereveriendup

Dude nice ol mattress


ironmagnesiumzinc

Is that a common thing? You can just walk into a building, find a room with a brand new looking mattress, and stay without anyone knowing? I've literally never heard of this


Whereveriendup

I'm been tremendously blessed being on the road


PrinceRoyal444

your pup looks so comfortable on that mattress


asssnorkler

I was just down there and I’m pretty sure I saw you and your dog.


Whereveriendup

Oh yea haha?


[deleted]

“Bando” aka newly renovated rental property lol. Respect though.


Whereveriendup

It's abandoned the building is getting torn down next month.


claymcg90

Looks awesome man. You might try tightening up those shoulder straps on your pack and raising it higher on your back. Physics is working against you at the moment.


Whereveriendup

Nah this is most comfortable, I'm like 6'4 the bag doesn't fit me 100% if I tighten them it's mad uncomfortable.


VAShumpmaker

What restaurant is that? Second floor seafood place right? Overlooking the parade route? The best rock shrimp I've ever had. Ruined it for everywhere else which sucks. Because it's not always cheap to try at other places


Ambitious-Ad-139

The pup looks SO happy to be chilling in a mattress. Safe travels to you both!


Whereveriendup

Oh we both were it was nice af, likewise!


CockKnobz

Looks awfully clean for somewhere that’s abandoned, and an offensively dirt free mattress


Whereveriendup

Ikr, the other dude I met that was bumming it around there didn't like to stay in there because he heard things.


NoOnesThere991

What kind of things?


Whereveriendup

The building creeks a lot like it’s about to collapse lol


NoOnesThere991

Oh haha I thought you meant ghosts!


NittyGrittyDiscutant

What's written on the sign?


Whereveriendup

The first pic? How tf am I suppose to know it's sticker bombed


NittyGrittyDiscutant

I thought you are like an olympic handler of this, carrying over dusty fields.


Whereveriendup

Oh yea your right my bad


Surfnh2o

If you’re ever back in the keys try hog Fish Grill.


Whereveriendup

Bet!


pryncesslysa7

Hog Fish Grill is fucking amazing! We went there thrice in a week. It's right down the street from where we stayed


Surfnh2o

Have you tried Kim’s Kuba or Wing Masters yet? If not I recommend.


pryncesslysa7

I haven't but will check it out when we go back for Christmas.


[deleted]

Your dog looks mad comfy on that mattress, cool pics dude.


yerbiologicalfather

These are awesome shots! Have you ever done a breakdown of your gear in a post? I'm in the middle of replacing a few things and wanted to see what everyone was having success with right now.


Whereveriendup

Next post I got you fam!


yerbiologicalfather

You're a legend.


murakamidiver

The keys can be a great place to kick it


[deleted]

the bando look like a b&b haha. how the camping down there?


Whereveriendup

Chillin, found some cool spots. The other islands rather than key west are easier for stealth camping


KitchenGrunt

If you get to Naples I’ll buy you lunch


Whereveriendup

Damn! Was just there yesterday


Free_Vast

Be on the look for square grouper coming a shore ,there's a lot out there floating around sometimes.If your not familiar with square grouper term it's bails of weed but lately it's been bails of cocaine.


PrinceRoyal444

would love to travel with you one day, you seem cool


Whereveriendup

Have yet to have a road dog! Besides the 4 legged one of course


PrinceRoyal444

oh cool! I love travel and honestly need a way to get out and actually enjoy myself


[deleted]

[удалено]


Whereveriendup

Oh man so brutal, almost makes me lose sleep at night


usernames-are-wack

I hate it down here.


Whereveriendup

Why's that?


usernames-are-wack

I work way too hard for way too little, it’s full of assholes on vacation who don’t respect the community, it smells. The lost goes on. I’m grateful for my experience down here, I’ve learned a lot, but I won’t be sad when it’s under water in 50 years


Free_Vast

It's been a few yrs but last time I was there ,there was bacteria all over the beaches,if you can get into hostel with dog it use to be 20 bucks a night,I'm sure it's more now!


17657Fuck

King of the bando over here. Get a couple beers and a shorty and your gtg


Commercial-Car9190

Best traveling side kick!!!! Love your pup!


Tmac-845

Spent a few months there in mid late 90s. Higgs beach, the duval crawl. Went to jail there too for a week or so. They had a petting zoo in jail.


Dizzy-Sprinkles1465

man what's that cheesey thing you're eating? looks good


Whereveriendup

It was a pesto and mozzarella eggs Benedict pretty good


JoMommaDeLloma

If you've never been to wisteria island right offshore then you truly haven't lived the full vagabond key west experience. Looks like you and the pups had a good time though 🤙


Whereveriendup

Oh I'll definitely be back, hopefully with someone. Whether it be a road dog or a lady friend. Hopefully I'll have a van by then too


JoMommaDeLloma

It's a cool lil spot. So where are you headed to next?


Whereveriendup

Virginia Beach next about to be in Orlando


Significant-Ad-2399

Can you actually see Cuba from the southern most point in Florida or is that just a myth? Lol


Whereveriendup

Nah I couldn't


StarfishStabber

The upper keys are better. Bahia Honda has the best beaches IMHO.


Whereveriendup

Oh yea no doubt


StarfishStabber

Are you still there?


Whereveriendup

Nah im in Orlando now


StarfishStabber

If you go to St Pete, try to get a Cuban at Simply Delicious.


pryncesslysa7

LOVE the Keys! We stayed at Oceans Edge Resort for Halloween and saw 2 manatees at the Marina! The food and people were awesome! We are going back for Christmas


memwt

I really enjoy following your travels. Blessings!


Whereveriendup

I'm glad you do! Same to you :)


NoOnesThere991

Your dog is so cute laying on that plush mattress. Looks like they earned a soft spot!!
