RE: My 2018 - This is my Hobby: Psychedelic Trance - A Gateway To Understanding Life As Human Being
I fully agree. The psy community is but ONE way to discover what profound meaning it has to be with people who take each other for who they are and not what they think the others ought to be.
The effect is so long-lasting - a week of profound experience will never quite leave you again and is worth a thousand regular hotel vacations, in my book.
Thank you for your insight!
You are more than welcome. I wish it was something that we could share with everyone. I am going to miss my weeks camping in the summer now that I have moved.
Thought so myself for the longest time, but some people need more pain. They are not quite damaged and hopeless enough yet to go for an adventure like this, further pulling the rubber band back until they can finally let go of their rut. I have many old school friends like this and I wish them well.
I keep meeting people on the floor from everywhere. Spain has a huge scene.
If you want to check out the scene where you are you may start here, festival season just coming up: https://www.goabase.net/party/?country=Spain
Also many communities and self-sustainability projects in Spain if psytrance is not your focus. Or did you recently leave Spain altogether? If so, same website applies, there are parties everywhere - some real diamonds, some way too overcommercialized.
I have yet to go to Spain for psy parties, but I do have friends who go regularly. Whenever the universe takes me there ;)
Totally, that's the way I feel about society and politics in general in the UK, where I come from. The place is in the dumps and getting worse but people keep burying their heads in the sand and sitting on their hands. I think if they had a connection to the sort of society I come from, and that you found, they might think about things differently. As it is it seems that they will have to go through a LOT more pain before they are able to see that the system is as broken as it is.
We moved to Spain about two months ago due to Brexit. Really hoping to meet up with alternative types and fellow off gridders here. We are up on the north coast so it is SPAIN. No English community here (thankfully) and hopefully over time we can make contacts.
There was a really good festival scene here back in the early 00s when I was more connected with the free party scene in the UK. Not sure now. With two very young boys and not a lot of spare time It's not so much our scene but maybe in the future.
Your story is inspiring and a similar path I have 'laid out' - the world is calling me. We'll see what the universe says ahaha and the more I learn the more I am willing ot put all bets on nature first and foremost.
Probably a good time to relocate and build an ark soon'ish for me ;)
Definitely man. Come to Asturias, it's gorgeous and green and land is cheap. The food is great to, but you do have to know how to speak Spanish as this is SPAIN. It's very rural with almost no english speaking population.
Got that covered, I have an excellent language course for learning Spanish.
So I finally got a landing location in Spain now, awesome ;) Will let you know if my travels take me there and we can meet up and talk some English for once ahaha. This summer I will go east again, but as I said, I am preparing some exodus here and universe will show me the way.
Will look up Asturias, no idea about Spanish maps. Love the green part, I don't want to live in a desert. Sunshine, lots of it - yes. But not dry land. It sounds just right ;)
Asturias sits in the middle of the north coast. If you follow the eastern border of Portugal north to the bay of Biscay, the new line is roughly the western border of Asturias. It's like Wales mixed with Switzerland. We made a Brexodus here at the end of Jan and are settling in nicely. Still have to find work but it's coming. It rains, a lot, but I have been out in a t shirt most days in the last week so can't complain
Sounds pretty sweet, wasn't that the tropical corner of spain? gotta check up on climate zones. Any bit more sun than here would work GREAT for me, and I hear down South in portugal it can get very hot and dry. The pictures of Boom look incredibly dusty. that said, the dark phase is now just over but when it comes again in late fall I shall be making a move somewhere West-South-East'ish ;)
