Greetings from Seattle!

Post by natashamr » Sun Nov 25, 2012 4:58 pm

Hello people of zee Playa! ~

My name is Natasha and 2013 will be my first time at Burning Man :)
Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself, say hello and hopefully meet the most coolest people on here.
I'll be browsing this page more and get the info I need before I play 1,000+ questions on threads, ha.
Much love (((❤)))

-Natasha

Greetings from Gig Harbor Natasha. Your off to a good start on eplaya by digging around first. 99.9% of the questions you have will be answered already. Do not take the snarkiness and cynicism as well as any weird tone at more than face value. Eplaya is powered by witty comebacks and satire with a sprinkling of useful information.

If you have not already done so, there are local resources for Burningman as well for Puget Sound. http://ignitionnw.org/ monthly get together's etc.

Have fun.

Hiya Natasha! I'm from the Eastern part of WA! Welcome to eplaya! You can learn tons of thing within the threads here! And ask questions if you need too! Lots of good and friendly people here! :D
Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious.

There is a strong burner community in the NW and they have parties all the time, great for people getting ready for the indescribable experience of the event itself. Welcome!

Haha I'd do the Sanarchy if it wasn't for two things. 1. I'm only twenty and 2. I've never been beyond Belltown since I moved up here, and I have no idea of the bus schedules/routes.
