I went alone. It was in Michigan, and my friend Liz went with me on the train (she was 15), but she stayed with my friend in Wisconsin while I went. So I went to the gathering alone even if I traveled with a partner. I did however have someone there I knew well who had been before that I met up with once I was there.

It was wonderful, and I had no major issues. There was a creepy man who was sketchy as could be and straight up asked to sleep with me in the grass. I simply said no and left, though I did tell the people at info because he creeped me out pretty bad.

While that sounds like a huge deal, it wasn't overall. It was definitely leveled out by the other experiences I have.

My advice is just to know how to take care of yourself, and remember that is a place where you want to trust everyone; it does not mean that you can.

I helped build some cob solar showers, I met wonderful people, I had life changing experiences, and I wouldn't change it. I would have changed things about how I got there (police were called on me, I was reported as missing by my father), but I wouldn't change the experience. Have fun. Oh, if you help out, it will be returned to you too.

I spent around two weeks there, but the last week or so there wasn't a lot of people left. It was clean up.

I oddly enough spent a lot of time alone. It was sort of an act of reflection for me. So your mileage may vary there, but I certainly enjoyed my solitude in a sea of people.

I had lots of fun though, with people. I enjoyed the drum circles, and the food (oh the food!!). Granola Funk was awesome (but maybe that was West Virginia....), hmm.. I ate mushrooms (hey, you asked), I met some really amazing people and I learned quite a bit about life.
