Here i come, beautiful Playa people!

Post by Eleonora » Sun Apr 23, 2017 7:39 am

I'm 33 and it's my first Burn. If i wanted to go before? Sure..But life knows it better - you get it when you really need it :) We all have our reasons to go, mine is not worse or better than others. I don't expect it to change my life, but whatever Playa brings i will be grateful to accept it.

I travel and i travel a lot - on business, private, alone, with friends. "Only through travel we can know where we belong or not" - so true.. i want to continue learning, visit new places, meet new people. Sometimes you meet a person only once in your life but you remember it forever - the mystery of life :) It's actually all about people, the thoughts and energy you exchange - you cannot even imagine how much you can learn about yourself on the way!

Initially i was planning to go with friends but their plans have changed and i will be going alone. And i don't regret it - it's all about Radical Inclusion and Self-Reliance, isn't it? i think i'm 100% ready for it.

I've decided to join a camp but i don't want to rush, I want to find MY Camp. You know, the feeling when you visit a place or meet a person - the tick, the chemistry that happens.. and you know that this is it :)

No i'm not an artist, don't want to make up stories here :) but we are all creative to certain extend and i hope Playa will help to bring out this part of me. I'm open to all new and ready to learn, collaborate and get my hands dusty.

I have Energy and the willingness to share it!
Here i come, beautiful Playa people :D

Welcome!
I will be happy to talk about this with you there's a lot to consider but anything you do it will be more than you have done before.
Well I've been going since it began I never know what to expect thank goodness except that it is more than it ever was before.

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 Aboard!

Oh, you are indeed an artist, your art simply has not found you yet. I'm not a particularly great artist, but that doesn't stop me! Also, who says what is and is not art? Think outside the gallery! Looking forward to dusty hugs.

Welcome, Eleonora!

I'm glad you're not intimidated by the idea of arriving solo. When you put aside the freezing and roasting and 8-hour dust storms, the playa is a friendly place. ;)

I myself can't wait to face the marvels of not knowing exactly what will happen next!
