Aussie girl 1st timer looking for travel buddys and advice!

Post by CarinaLouise » Tue Jun 24, 2014 7:28 pm

Hi guys!
So I am finally the proud owner of a Burning man 2014 ticket (through the STEP program), YAY! However I am somewhat doubting the likeliness of my friends getting tickets and am feeling super unprepared!! Therefore I am looking for some fellow like minded pals to share the adventure/facilities/advice with.
Ive had a look through the main first timers pages but if there is anything (particularly for Aussie burners looking to connect), perhaps you could point me in the right direction.
I am a 24, from Tasmania, very cruisey, Lover of music, fun and laughs were ever they can be found. I would possibly even be up for going in on an RV or van if others are keen (and we can find one!)
Thanks in advance!

So my boyfriend and I are organising a camp specifically aimed at first time international solo burners with bonus points or being Aussie cause that's where I'm coming from...

I'm just updating the website today and will be relaunching it asap. I'll let you know when it' up :)

Perfect!!!
I noticed your reply on another thread but couldn't follow the link to your page and that explains why.
You're a champ :)

Welcome, CarinaLouise! :D

Be sure to join the regional lists for places near you.
http://regionals.burningman.com/

Assume your friends will not make it. They might, but if you assume they won't, you are more likely to re-read the Survival Guide, plan to the teeth, and be otherwise prepared.

If everyone had waited for their friends to go, very few of us would've actually made it. :lol:

The Australian Regional, Burning Seed, is actually not on the Regionals page. The facebook group is here and is probably the best way to get in touch with people.
