    Spiritual/Healing Places/People/Things around SF and North?

    I'm escaping the Polar Vortex for a minute (have been in muddafukkin' MI all winter), and flying to San Fran on Valentine's Day (shitty-ass day, made infinitely less shitty by TRAVELLLINN'!). I've been to the city before, but never north... all i REALLY want to do is hunker down in the redwoods...

    WWOOFin'/Farm Work with a dawg?

    Hey y'allz ~ Has anyone ever WWOOFed on farms with their dog? I have a 9 month old lab/pit puppy, who is essentially my world, and i really don't want to leave her with my parents for the summer (it would break her little cotton pickin' heart), but I also want to get back 'out into the world'...

    does anyone NOT drink?

    i don't drink at all anymore; but i'm definitely not in 'the scene,' per se - much more of a loner. i had my drinking days while i was in kawledge, to be sure, but now the very THOUGHT of alcohol makes my whole body cringe. I've always had this suspicion that i'm somewhat allergic to alcohol (if...

    Biking the country, travelling the world, seeking opportunities in the spiritual realms

    If you end up in Flagstaff, go south a little ways to Sedona... I've never been there myself, but have always wanted to ~ it is a land of extremely potent spiritual/energetic vortices, and as such, has attracted a variety of 'alternative' folks, of all stripes and colours. So I've been told ~...

    Wwoofing

    I WWOOFed in Hawai'i, on the Big Island, a while ago (tooo long ago!); the farm I was lucky enough to be at was not really a farm, per se, but an 'artistic ecovillage' started by a bunch of jugglers, primarily from Britain, who invested in some land together. They've had a cirkus school for the...

    Have you ever found your "answers" on the road?

    Couldn't have said it better myself - the brutal, honest and raw truth! There was a time in my life when I was able to savour every single SECOND, every single chance encounter and random, beautiful occurrence (even the 'bad' ones, and they were relatively few and far between, b/c i had a...

    getting to usa

    You can get flights for $300 or so, depending on day/airport/etc. Check Iceland Air; they used to be quite cheap. But yah... it's not hard to find cheap flights; i think that's part of the reason why they don't really do standby anymore...
