hello guys/gals

ive been watching abandoned videos now for years and thought i would love to do that so here i am,

ive been to a few places now R.A.F Church Fenton and a few mills and so on and i just want more its so exciting and a big adrenalin buzz but what im struggling to do is find new places so im asking for some help, how do you look for places what i would love to do is find a time capsual and document it, i hate going into places where its been trashed i dont see the need in doing that it just spoils it for others,
anyway more about me.

im male autistic at the young age of 43 (hehe) i have a gourges wife and 4 kids 3 also autistic ive just got my only baby girl (5 days old) 3 boys aged 12-10-4
my dream is to eventually live of the land and not live in the corrupt state things are becoming its quite sad to see that people just dont stick together anymore and i just want the best for my little family,

i remember been a kids and going into empty buildings so i gues i have always had a interest evetually i would love to travel around the world in my bus that i bought ive only been out of the uk one in my whole life so now i gotta see more but for now until i save up i have to stick to the uk

thanks for reading and any info on finding places would be great i wish there was like a satalite like in that film enemy of the state where you could zoom right in lol

Firstly, welcome along.

Going off what you have written you already seem to have an idea on what you are doing and how, which is all a good start. Would enjoy seeing any photos you have in a report.
I'll try and find a guide to link for you if you are in need of help.

In the regard of finding new places to visit, it's a technique that has many avenues. To list a few basic methods:
A: Google, it seems obvious, but typing in vague search terms such as "factory closed in Lincoln" will potentially weald results.
B: Specialist pages or lists. For example Wikipedia lists of a certain building/industry type or a website about RAF bases will be a start.
C: News, this can come in many forms such as a link posted to a forum (like this one), a Facebook post, local news papers, demolition websites ect.

Anyways, best of luck and we look forward to what you get up to.

Welcome to the forum, great introduction.
You'd do really well to follow KPs tips there.
If there's anything on the forum you're not sure how to use, send on of us a message and we will help.

Videos on there on is not something we really encourage, we much prefer either pictures or pictures followed up with videos.
