My entire life, I've always tried to go into every abandoned building I see. For me, It's like I'm free in there.  I can smash a beer bottle against the wall, piss on the floor, go into any room, break the door down if I want.  I can take anything I want home with me.   Not to mention even empty buildings have cool things to see in them, to climb on.  Maybe you just have to be born with a taste for it.  My dream: to be the last person on earth, and I spend my life just going into abandoned buildings.  I'd never get tired of it.

i don't get anything particular from doing things like breaking stuff, in fact i try to leave absolutely no trace of my passage
however i do enjoy imagining what the place used to be, the people who lived there, their conversations
it feels more real than a movie

We should create a custom openstreetmap with the locations and images here.

Ominous entrance, love it. exploring places that make me feel alive via thrill. Same goes with old mines.

>>265
theres a good reason why noone does this. Dont want them to have any potential attention from piggies / any form of authority. I just want to sit in my dead building.

>>160 (OP) 
very cool anon, post more

>>269
there are absolutely pigs, globois, and other underhanded fuckers lurking on this site

>>265
I know its not a good idea but i really wish a site like this existed, will be backpacking europe soon and would love to pass through a couple nice spots along the way

ex-communist/soviet countries have a butt load of abandoned spots. Its harder in western europe, but usually spots exist in "likely areas" for example next to/under train tracks/highways. Forgotten industrial zones, or places that were considered too hard to reach (pain in the ass to find but pic 3 is one I found, by complete chance)

the tunnel on the right remains unexplored had to go through a drain network that was my stopping point. I came back to explore further but the drain entrance seemed blocked with debrie and mud. There might be other access points but they are ore tricky. The tunnel seemed to go on forever I accessed it by exploring storm drain tubbing. If I can guess it runs up and under a road that goes up a hill. It was a feeling I stumbled on something big but it was also where I put a pin on my exploration for another day. Unfortunately my access point to get back seems blocked.

>>317
indeed, eastern europe is filled up the ass with abandoned and neglected buildings.
i'm not one to trespass though since sometimes i have no idea who owns it.

>>320
If you do get a decent filter mask some of these old places have asbestos or worse shit you don't want to be breathing in.

>>321
yea I once sat on this couch that was semi outside for maybe a decade and some of the dust it puff out went in my eye making feel a bit swollen. IDK.
> you just sat on a spider infested mouldy couch???
I have special waterproof trousers + jacket so my clothes underneath dont get mud and shit on them.

I randomly came across this a week ago but it was underwhelmingly empty.

Looks like a monastery or something.
