Burners!
I need advice, hugs and friendly peeps to meet before I make my way to the continent in May. I am doing some travelling around Central America, then up to Canada bc for shambhala, then plan to come down to Nevada for burning man
Been trying to read as much as possible about the festival so I can be prepared but wondered if there are any other backpackers that have any advice on how to prepare for the festival on a budget
There ae probably so many questions I have about tickets, costumes and car shares etc
I'll also be travelling on my own and would love to meet a party crew to welcome me with loving burner arms
Love love xxx

Here's a thread by someone who wants to come in via Burner Express, and is researching a lot of the right things:

Hey there, welcome to eplaya!

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

Welcome.
Savannah: I don't know what it is, but no thread here escapes alive. You'll get 1 or 2 real answers at minimum, occasionally 10 or 12, and then we flog it until it's unrecognizable and you can't get your deposit back.
