May need to go camping to escape mold in PNW... How can I make it work?
I was displaced from my home due to mold toxicity 3+ weeks ago. I've been bouncing around Airbnbs paid for by my mom (she is struggling financially and still helps me, God bless her) but it's very expensive, and I keep running into Airbnbs that have mold. I'm incredibly sleep deprived from all that I've been through these last few weeks.
Weather is looking nice Friday onward. I live in Portland, Oregon. I'm thinking about finding a BLM spot just outside of town and setting up a tent for the run of good weather. But I'm afraid it will still be very cold, as I run cold even indoors. It will get really cold in my tent because I sleep on an air mattress when I camp. And I'm afraid that it will be scary to camp alone. I would love to take someone along for body heat and moral support. How could I even find someone?? Do I just find a really good sleeping bag to borrow and hope for the best? Maybe I could attend a few paid campsites just so I am near other humans. I really have no idea how to camp on my own. I'm looking at campsites on The Dyrt. I have my own vehicle which is a total mess right now but my supplies are crammed inside it. I have most of what I need, and I could even plan to just go into town when I need food. I need to go into town anyway, as my plan is just to keep being homeless/Airbnb until I find an affordable sublet or rental in Portland (most of which start May 1st).
I don't even want to be in Portland that badly because the mold is so bad in this city, but all my resources and healthcare are here, and it would just be easier to tie up loose ends here before traveling, I think.
I'm in over my head and would love any advice.
