What’s the strangest place you’ve ever slept?

1014 sats \ 18 comments \ @stack_harder 17h AskSN

for me, it was on a pavement. When we were teenagers me and 4 of my friends and I had been to a house party, but nobody was allowed to crash there, so after it was done, the four of us just went to sleep on the pavement outside the house (we weren't even allowed to sleep in the garden on the grass at least), huddling together for warmth lol

I remember i was late for a shift at work the next day because the party was out in rural Wales somewhere and we got lost walking back to civilisation in the morning.

what about you guys?

I don't know which one is the strangest, but I used to do long bike trips, and here are some candidates:

In a tunnel under construction in the middle of a Swiss mountain. I put a yoga mat on the road and slept on it. The tunnel was lit, but it was closed to traffic. There was a lot of water dripping from the ceiling.
In a toilet cubicle in the bathroom of a hostel that wouldn't let me stay
In bus shelters
in the middle of a roundabout somewhere in northern Italy. It was midnight and I was tired and didn't have the time to look for anything better.

Under the sky in the wadi with just some knitted blankets somewhere around here. Was actually nice.

I once slept on the floor of a bus stop in New Plymouth, New Zealand.

That’s probably the weirdest place ever for me.

I slept on the floor at school overnight (no mat, just rough carpet). I slept at a random bus stop bench in Thailand. I slept at many airports. One time I was in Kowloon, Hong Kong trying to sleep on the floor in a small apartment and I noticed a hole on the bottom of the wall - when I saw a rat peek in, I decided to not sleep on the floor there anymore :)

I remember sleeping without regrets when I emigrated from my home country to the one I currently reside in, crossing 4 countries, eating whatever I wanted, and carrying my suitcase like crazy.

On a backpacking trip, I couldn't get back to the car in time to get home. It was in a tent, but the terrain was so sloped, that it was a really uncomfortable night because of the slope.

I did a road trip in a van, sleeping in amazing national parks.

Also, when I finished my senior year, I got so drunk I wake up in a class mate house... I got no memory about how I ended up there.

Growing up a touring musician: there are too many to name.

The floor of A-1 Records in Indianapolis was always comfier it appeared at first glance.

Either jail when I got a DUI or my car in a Wal Mart parking lot when I was between places. I might've slept in an airport on a layover. I have a faint memory of trying at least.

What is the ratio of US drivers who (never) drive while under the influence of drugs/alcohol? Seems to be a bit of a cultural curiosity to an outsider. Some kind of token for being free enough to go against the redcoats?

I don't even remember the places I passed out drunk. Definitely in a parking lot once.
