We live in a world of great instability and all of us could easily make a wrong turn and end up homeless. Being homeless doesn't make someone a bad person or a criminal... It's just someone that needs a helping hand.

You can still do that, but you can't look homeless. I just finished a 8 month trip of traveling in a camper van, but I've been doing it for about 2 years with a short break in between for a few months.
As long as you don't look like your homeless you can still get away with traveling and camping in a lot of places you aren't supposed to but if cops catch you they will usually haggle you. Personally I only had issues 3 times and not once was it any big deal and only once was I asked to move.
Essentially if you look like a bum and are street begging, then you will get treated like a bum. However if you look normal and aren't bothering people no one gives a fuck.
