Have been trying to learn a new language on the net but not having a lot of success, have been considering going to a local course so this is useful, thanks.

Being new to the burning man community i am surprised to hear of oz burn 2010. Are you able to provide more details of where and when. This is something that I think has the potential to reach and inspire many

Walking around the world wrapped in a bubble of one’s own culture rather than touching what the mass of the other culture is? Or finding that thin sliver of commonality in every culture, and building commonality from that thin sliver?

Does every culture need a “Burning Man” or do we just need to find the seeds of commonality? Can radical inclusivity swallow a continent on the other side of the planet while it is meaningless to 95% of San Franciscans?

So where abouts are you travelling in OZ? This is my home country and Im sure I can help you with meeting truely amazing and inspiring people on your travels!!! Im off to Burning Man for the first time this year and am so excited!!! Dont really know what to expect, except what I’ve seen through photos. So if your travelling up North you probably wouldn’t run into too many who are aware of Burning Man, it’s more in the underground culture of the cities!! Im down in Melbourne and a lot of people know about it and are really jealous Im going on such an adventure!!! Any tips for a first time go-er?! My best friend and I are going alone and need to find a camp, we figure we’ll just walk around with a sign and make some new friends that way!!!
Anyway, hit me back and I’ll try and fill you in on some of our AMAZING underground parties!!! :) x

Unfortunately, with the heaps of international tourists and workers all searching out the same jobs along the same roads, I’ve been hard-pressed to find many that are even aware of the BM community. Being swept up in the hullabaloo hasn’t been hard, and avoiding near slave-like working conditions in orchards and farms.
I’ll remain searching out ways to cover costs to carry myself back to Black Rock, but after reading this, I’m moreso hoping to focus efforts to find burners in similar situations. Any info regarding events in Aus would be a great commodity to have.
Beyond chance encounters, is there any resource to bring us together other than burner blogs?
I trust all will remain well, keep smiling.
