Have you ever dreamed of traveling the world? Do you ever feel burdened
by the stuff in your life? Does the call of the gypsy appeal to you?
Then come to the Technomad social, a gathering of people who either
currently live or want to live as nomads/travelers/gypsies. Tynan,
author of "Life Nomadic" , will be speaking about his travels around the
world, and his current experiences living in an RV in San Francisco .
There will be a Q&A, followed by a tour of his RV and his gear. There
will be some light snacks. Attendees are encouraged to bring their
favorite backpacking/on the road dish.

Directions (link to Google map):

Buy his (your!) book???

It's not my (Christopher Rasch) book, nor do I get any proceeds of any kind. I promote it because I think it's a good book, and well worth the time/money to read it, if you're interested in a nomadic lifestyle. In addition, if you don't want to/can't afford to buy the book, he allows you to download it for free.

Also, since it's not clear from my original post, the Technomad social is free (though I encourage people to sign up so that I know how much food to buy).
