I've been away from Phoenix for three years and would really like a chance to start over. My entrance into the Burner community back in the day was fraught with addiction and personal demons, both of which I like to think have gone on their ways. Currently, I'm a positive, happy person that would like to get involved with the community. I'm very shy until I get to know you, consider self-expression and love to be the most important things on the planet, and am looking for my own creative outlet besides writing. I've become very much a free spirit in the last few years and love trying new things.  -kris

Hello! I am heading to the playa for early entry with an art project but I need a ride back home to Tucson (or somewhere nearby, even Phoenix area). I will be coming back with only myself and a duffel bag since all my gear will be going back with my camp. So . . .I will make an awesome ride sharer since I will take up virtually no space and will of course share gas expenses etc. Thanks! -Sailor

Burning Man CHANGED my life, I shall never be the same... I have said of Burning Man..."Burning Man will change your life, You just do not know how yet" Burning Man is a 29-hour a day party for a week... It is about looking at your 'Box' and deciding if it must remain a Square. It has shown me that building 'Community' takes effort, shared effort... The Playa is about discovery of self...The discovery of those we just met or those we have known for a lifetime  -Scotto
