Greetings from Western Australia

Post by surface tension » Tue Mar 01, 2011 8:03 pm

Another first timer here. Setting off from my isolated city of Perth in July for a 6 month trip to US and Canada. Burning Man is the second destination after warming up at Shambala in BC. Going to drive down from there.

My girlfirend and a small group of my more adventurous friends from Perth are meeting me at BM but details are pretty light on at this stage. Have read the survival guide but I've signed up here to get some further knowledge from some seasoned burners. There's lots of work to be done!

Thanks for having me :)

Welcome to eplaya! You'll find tons of info here that the survival guide doesn't cover.
anything worth doing is worth overdoing..

Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

I met somebody from Perth walking down the street in my town.

I can't help wondering if they became a burner.
