Thanks @Panic! for the template.

Who am I? Just another person looking to explore for the sheer fun of it.
Nickname? UrbanDragon
City or state? NSW
Age? 19

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.

There's no other experience quite like a domestic on a train.

Sorry if that's the case, but I only know him because I occasionally urbex with him. Can't seem to find his Instagram and have never seen it anyway. He's hard enough to contact.

Haha, I thought the same thing at the time, but I guess it'd make him a little more "legit" in the eyes of an authority if they wanted to know what he was doing? Then again, stealth is my policy.

I've been up that staircase, is the steak knife still hidden at the top? Pretty sure the guy that lives at the top left it there for protection after being confronted a few times.

I wouldn't say they're exactly a hot item due to most explorers preferring to exercise a bit of stealth over a cool tshirt. Though Cave Clan members frequently wear C/C shirts & UER sells site branded tshirts I believe.
