peace SHALOM! :)
.....make your own way.........
2000 hippis, dreadlocks, gypsy girls, faries, heads and naked bodies, boys, girls, shamans the lot! no stages or anything electronic, just all of us living on a piece of land with a couple of fresh water springs and a forest surrounding us. we stayed there for a month and just let loose and got naked and tanned. making wood-carving workshops, singing, dancing. the kitchen makes two meals a day for everyone (all 2000 of us) and we come together for the meals, sing a song, do a big "OOOOOOOMMMMMMM" then eat. every night we'd dance and sing and have great things to talk about.................it was all good! it was and outdoor, make-shift city! humming with good vibrations and that excelent hand-on-skin beat of 20 something djambes in unisen and the 50 odd naked hippis all in a trance, stomping around the main fire. mud-baths, sweat-lodges, shit-pits, tipis, lake swims and indulgent conversation.
it was bliss..........
Happy Valley is a beautiful area of native bush, fragile wetlands and a thriving ecosystem of native birds and animals located on the West Coast of New Zealand, just North East of Westport. It is home to many threatened species including the Great Spotted Kiwi and the large native Patrickensis land snail.... and it is under attack from state-owned enterprise Solid Energy!
