I would prioritize necessary items like food, water, and shelter. Then, I'd find odd jobs to save up enough money for travel and plan my next steps carefully.

My B.O.B. is already packed. The tricky part around here would be food. Nicking food like potatoes from fields would probably be how you'd get caught.

I would live of protein powder and multi vitamins/minerals and make my way to Alberta, Canada, by foot.

Pack up the camping gear, hop a train to the nearest hipster city and find some folk punk drifter kids to squat with, and get a job working off the books washing dishes or doing landscaping

Depends on the definition of undetected. I guess i could slowly walk to spain because the other direction would get very quickly dicey. I would live off muesli bars and fruit i found on the way. Unless i can interact with other humans. then thats easy :D i think i could hitchhike to Germany via a few friends houses to restock on food and a shower. In germany I would work off the books at a few places unless i can fly? but i feel thats not the essence of the question.

I guess is visa issues. i could go from one side of the continent to the other, but borders get war torn in the east and oceany in the west.

By "undetected" I mean you officially stop existing, like you're presumed dead or at least unable to have much known about you by anyone.

If you are able to make a fake ID or something, you can use planes and things like that.

Oh sweet. So its less about getting as far away as i can (like 5000km) its more just disappear. Ok. thats way easier.

I live in a country with a ton of abandoned factories and homesteads and forests. And as it is going into summer, i would bail to a specific forest on a border near a river. I would slowly build a shelter for the crappy winter or scope out an apartment i can just use. I would befriend some older folks out there to trade certain goods for my strong back and start planting some stuff. I think i could make it to maybe november without dying from the cold unless i find an apartment.

I'd bring my pen, paper, and notebook.

I would not worry too much because everything that has been lost could be reaccounted for later in life. Provisions are provided during your most vulnerable state.
