How did I get into urbexing? That's an interesting story, actually. I was on a train to Sydney, pondering about how dull my life was and listening to music. Then, a domestic dispute happened, right there in the carriage. Nobody did anything, so I walked to the emergency point and hit the button. Reported it. A guy tapped me on the shoulder and I turned around. A black t-shirt, emblazoned with "Urbex Tresspasser" greeted me. From his backpack hung a black and green respirator and his black shoes were well worn. He pulled out his earphones and greeted me. And we chatted, exchanging contact info. Just a day later, I was on rooftops in Sydney, then finding my own places and getting some awesome shots in the process. I've been hooked ever since.
What have I done? I help people, that's what I live for.
What UE am I into? Rooftops and abandoned places, hopefully in the future, a couple drains.
A few locations (use nicknames not exact locations) I have explored: Multiple rooftops in Sydney, Mittagong (in the AUS UE forum- when a mod approves it), The Institute, and a few more.
Why do I like UE? What is your motivation? In a way, it sort of gives me something to focus on. The people around me in my life are so unpredictable and chaotic. When I'm urbexing, it's calming. I know exactly what to do, almost like a routine. But the exploration is simply bliss.
How did I find UEGA? Google. Not going to lie.
Why am I here? Why not. I want to share what I've experienced and maybe meet a few people.
Here's a shot from my collection.
