Possibly Florida Bound...Advice needed

Greetings~!!!


Well let's see...it's pretty basic...hoping for advice from people on Florida...and the "natural, hippie type culture" that may or may not be there....

A friend of mine has found a job offer in Florida...around Sarasota/Bradenton Area...
and has asked me to come along for a few months, possibly more.

My curiousities are mainly....about the scene in that area of Florida...
as far as if you are into certain things..have a certain type of lifestyle you prefer..etc.

I'm a modern "hippie" chick...
...dreads to my butt...very organic natural living...herb smoker...healthy eater....nature/animal lover...extremely liberal....."kind?"...very much into my spiritual path...etc.

So...I truly would love to hear from anyone about Florida, or specifically the area I mentioned.
Is it tough to find some good herbs...is it tough to find some kind folk to mingle with now and then....
I read on one forum about drum circles..would love to know more about that...

Are there farmer's markets or health food stores in the areas I mentioned or near by?

I sound clue-less I realize....truth is I lived in West Palm Beach for about a year when I was younger...and I recall feeling quite lonely as far as kind people went or any aspect of the life-style.....
herbs where tough to come by as well..but I finally figured something out...
but for the most part..alot of snooty people surrounded me..and my time was spent largely alone.

If I'm in for the same ball game so to speak..then I plan on turning down the offer to head over to Florida...

I've lived all over this country...and right now I'm in a big city and would very much love to be more so around nature..the beach..etc...but not at the price of feeling utterly alone, herbless, and surrounded by people who look down upon me.

So please...any info, advice etc. would be helpful....and anyone in that area who would like to conversate...hit me up..drop me a line.

Peace, Love and Light.

Namaste~!!

Blessings.
