Exactly -- which is why I was saying don't expect it. :P People are going to gloss over that point, and just hear the bit that tells them what they want to hear. That's why you see Mods come in and re-enforce stuff, especially if it's not going to be popular. The likelihood of the BLM doing that is...

Hey there, we're also in NZ & off to BM again this year. We read a lot & looked at loads of pics/vids beforehand & still had an awesome experience. We had a pretty stressful lead up due to a dodgy mechanic (in AZ ironically) so maybe because of that we found BM itself to be a breeze. Some of the stu...

Well, we've made it as far as Fallon & ready for the last push in the morning :) It's been a pretty stressful couple of weeks thanks to being screwed around by a shop in Mesa who managed to cook the rebuilt engine in our car & rather than throw it all in, we ended up going to an auction on Sat & bou...

Thanks Susie, we'll check it out

You sure do. Welcome, Kiwiburner! Most international travelers will (and should) see more than one great thing when they visit, but yeah--this event means a lot to many people, so as you've probably seen, there is definitely some . . . sensitivity encountered when the Burn is mentioned like just an...

Welcome. You might connect with a camp through the NZ regional or friends and family in your social networks. Some camps and villages welcome international participants understanding they can't participate much before the event. But being able to stay later, to Wed or Thurs to clean up, especially ...

Hi all, We're newbies (to Burning Man anyway) & will be travelling across the US for a few months from August. So far BM is the only thing we have set in stone so at least we have our priorities right :) We'll be pulling a 1950's caravan (camping trailer) but as it's the beginning of a long trip we'...
