Looks like I get to be a Birgin!

Post by Offroad » Wed Mar 29, 2017 1:16 pm

Greetings All!

I generally find it is more efficient to learn by listening rather than talking, however, my lurking days have come to an end! After two years of coming up empty, TickeyFly so graciously notified me that "Your order for BURNING MAN 2017 on 8/27 – 9/4 is confirmed!"

I am really looking forward to going HOME and finding ways to participate!

While this is my Birgin year, I have been learning about life on the Playa and building up a cache of equipment and supplies for the journey. I will be driving from Texas and camping solo to enjoy self-sufficiency, but I am looking for some camps to gift my time and skills to... My preparations have resulted in some extra capacity, so I'll be happy to share space in the Monkey Hut or a spare tent should anyone want to camp near me!

Can wait to see you in the dust!

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

Yea for Offroad. Welcome to ePlaya. When you get there you'll find 1,000 people that could use some help. Read up. Keep a level head and practice saying, 'yes'.

Welcome! Solo Camping is the bomb!

I gotta ask, being a lover of offroad, What type of offroad do you do? :coffee:
2nd time better than the first. And the first was pretty Freakin' Great!
I am Camp2. - A solo camp - Stop by and say Hey!, 8) Gotta beer?

If you are another Solo Burner & very 'Radically Self Reliant' - Maybe we can 'Do What We Do!' :P
