Posh hobo

In a word, Heather Wood. A wandering nomad that proves, not all those that wander are lost. The posh hobo decides to go somewhere, she just picks up and goes. She is a wanderer, a hobo. That said, she has style, full sized suitcases and enough pairs of shoes for everyday away, plus a few extras, just in case.
Heather packed for that trip like a posh hobo.

Hobo Triangle

When three young travelers decide to forgo traditional lodging in favor of finding a somewhat secluded area in which to sleep outside. They then form a triangle with their bodies, head to toe, with their possessions in the middle to prevent theft. A variation of the hobo triangle includes building a fire in the middle.
Traveler #1: Did you guys make it back to the hostel last night? I didn't hear you come in.

Traveler #2: No, we just formed a Hobo Triangle down under the pier to save some cash.

Power Hobo

A power hobo is one of the hopeless many typically found in bus stations, airports, Starbucks and other public locations scrounging around for a power outlet.

Unlike hobos who may congregate around a fire in the winter to keep warm, power hobos congregate around the scarce resources offered by 2 three prong outlets that are sparingly located. Typically you can hear them say "hey is there an outlet back there" or "could you spare a few minutes for me to plug into your power outlet".
The flight was late and the power hobos began to drift through the airport looking for a spare power outlet. Buddy can you spare a watt.
