its mainly a tiktok thing usually when a video of a spot is put up the comments are filled with give me the location or wanna trade location thats how it usually goes on there, I try to stay clear away from it anyways most of the locations that get posted on tiktok can easily be found with simple research some ppl are just lazy and dont wanna go through the effort of finding it themselvesEcho wrote: ↑16 Jul 2024, 12:05 pmDoes anyone actually 'trade' locations?
At the start urbex was purely about the explore. Back when I did things solo all the time.
These days if I've not got some good company along I can't be fucked honestly no matter how good the potential spot is. Everything is just more fun with others.
In general I would agree, although from time to time a little solo explore brings me some much needed solitude.

Thank you for letting me know, I did more research on my own and have found quite a lot:)

I heard it was a good way to meet other people considering I don't have many close friends into urbex (which in retrospect was not a wise idea to try to meet people through trading)
