    rennisance festivals have fairs all around the country. its not like the circus or carnies, but it is a great way to travel around and make a few bucks to live off of. .i use to do it and had a blast.

    check it out.

    usually with circuit you need your own transport, or be a wiz at lining up rides.

    Getting week-work was the bitch for me: I was in camp two days of the week (I was also attending college, I did a circle around home) so I had trouble lining up the extra bucks, and I worked the first year at rennie minimum.

    Sage, are you even watching this thread?
