June 3-12
Vancouver, Canada to LA & Back
I’m travelling down to Los Angeles for the amazing Getty exhibits (Aphrodite and the Gods of Love, and the Sanctuaries of Demeter and Persephone at Morgantina), and then north to attend the Open San Francisco conference June 8-10th.
If anyone is interested in hosting me, I would be *most* appreciative! I aim to be polite and respectful when travelling, and love conversation and discovering more branches of the sex positive/kinky/pagan/alt community family tribe tree!
Please email me at andrea_painter@yahoo.ca if you may be able to help me out with crash space, or camp site recs, or even just to share restaurants or amazing experiences you suggest for me to take in along the way of my west coast tour!! I will be along the I5 corridor for most of my trip.
If anyone is interested in ride sharing (and gas price sharing!) for any parts of this trip (Seattle to LA, SF to Seattle, or points in between) please also get in touch with me at andrea_painter@yahoo.ca . I don’t smoke (but am ok if you do), listen to a wide variety of music for ultimate road trip enjoyment, and I would love to share the journey with someone with a positive head space!
Itinerary
I’m planning to leave Seattle either Sunday June 3th in the evening, to stay in Portland on Sunday night, or leave Seattle Monday June 4th, first thing in the AM.
On Monday June 4th I’m planning to spend the night between Ashland, OR, and Redding or Red Bluff, CA. I’m looking for somewhere to stay in this vicinity, whether it’s a couch or a camp ground recommendation.
On Tuesday June 5th I’m hoping to be in Los Angeles. I’m looking for somewhere to stay that evening (either a couch or camp ground recommendation) on the north side of LA, anywhere between Bakersfield and LA proper.
I have a place to stay on June 6th and 7th, and I will be in LA until Thursday June 7th, when I’ll be driving up to San Francisco with Teri Ciacchi to attend the Open San Francisco conference (http://www.open-sf.org/index.html), and am set for accommodations until the end of the conference.
I’m looking for somewhere to crash in San Francisco or nearby on Sunday June 10th after the conference ends, as I will be heading back north on Monday June 11th bright and early.
On Monday June 11th I’m looking for a place to crash/recommendations for camp grounds around Eugene or Corvallis OR (I don’t think I’ll make it up to Portland!).
I will be arriving back in Seattle area on the evening of Tuesday June 12th (likely with a stop in Portland to pay homage to Powells!!).
