So I've been contemplating where I should go on an adventure.... live life a little.... have an experience of a lifetime. Either for sightseeing, festivals, big events, spiritual journeys of initiation, etc. Now I do have some ideas of what I want to do but being this world is so diverse and vast, I want to experience as much of this world as I can. So my question to you Nexians is what is your "experience of a lifetime".... either still a dream or something you've already experienced.

Tour S-America and drink Ayahuasca in Ecuador. At least go travel the world. Low budget around S-America or Asia e.g. ––––––
DMTripper is a fictional character therefore everything he says here must be fiction. I mean, who really believes there is such a place as Hyperspace!!

The three greatest adventures I've had were travelling around Peru with a very good friend (my first time experiencing ayahuasca out there, but that was one of many facets of the whole experience), going on a trans-European road trip to Boom festival a few summers back with a group of friends, and working on a sea turtle conservation project on the Greek island of Kefalonia a fair few summers ago now. Post uni I really want to get out and explore the world a bit more, I've been travelling elsewhere and had some amazing experiences. I really, really want to go to India, my number one priority actually, many friends have had an amazing time there, and my mum just returned from there today actually. Also want to travel around more of South East Asia and South America. Infinite I man I like the sound of your plan.

If ever I make it to India again, I would do it this way: first stop in Goa, fill a pocket of that backpack with all kind of psychedelics, THEN go travel around that amazing country ( while struggling to keep my head on my shoulders  ) Or South America, endlessly trekking in the Andes thanks to the Coca leaf, occasionnaly stopping for San Pedro and Ayahuasca ceremonies ( while struggling to keep my head on my shoulders  ) It's really one of the great things in life to have lots of free time, a bit of cash, and to let the Universe blow you here and there on this Earth... it's about making life a neverending experience of wonderfulness!

Hmmmm. I've never considered going to Goa India before.... *writes on list of things to do* On AFOAF's list, they are wanting to go down to South America to experience Ayahuasca for the first time.... feels it would be an amazing time with a proper shaman to help guide when needed Also want to visit some of Japan's Buddhist temples...... and get lost in a field of cherry trees in full blossom..... (with some Ott playing in the background.... ahhhhhh....)

Skydiving on shrooms was one of the most epic things i ever did.
But i have many things still on my to-do list. I would very much like to travel through africa. Especially kenya's ambuseli-park must be quite special.

olympus mon could probly tell you some awesome tales of skydiving..... he told me one about his friend who BASE-JUMPED ON ACID!!  if you're still looking around, you could always consider joining me the first week in july back in the costa rican jungle to do another 10 days of work with the secoya.... i promise that THAT will most certainly leave a life-long impression!  other than that, i would say that burning man will be right up there... come this year!!! lots of us are gonna be there...can you think of anything better than hanging with your nexus family at such a spectacular event???? i think NOT!

L&G!! I think I will definitly have to hear olympus mon's stories HAHAHA I won't be able to make it to burning man or the trip to see the secoya people (which sounds AWESOME!!  ) this year as I'm going to need to replenish my funds first before "edumacating" myself any further or traveling...  I have a couple of friends that are going down this year though to the festival and will be report back with awesome tales and pictures I think I may be doing some day or weekend trips around my area though, as further north there are some beautiful forests that I've camped in before and I'd like to explore that area further Thanks for the suggestions, ElusiveMind The Tea Party wrote:We exist in a world where the fear of Illusion is real And we cling to the past to deny and confuse the ideal DMTripper wrote:Bliss of ignorance -> pain of knowledge -> integrate -> bliss of knowledge.

Trekking in the Himalayas, travelling in South America, camping in deep nature and taking psychedelics, indigenous ayahuasca rituals, high psychedelic doses in the safety of your own room, all of them can be experiences of a lifetime  Oh and, falling in love, thats an adventure alright

ElusiveMind Such a wicked thread dude, i would have to say my experience of a life time was spending a month in Bodhgaya India living in a Tibetan Buddhist monastery and attending sacred Phowa teachings. It defiantly changed my life and i ache to go back to India again, i would highly recommend that everyone should try to travel to India at least once in their lifetime. Much Peace and Kindness

Thanks a lot Aegle for the kind words. It definitely seems like India is a good place to travel Any recommended sights or places in India specifically? (There is just too much in this world to experience  ) Goa sounds like a good place to start @ endlessness Hahaha. Yes falling in love is an adventure, but it's an adventure the finds you first Great suggestions so far everybody Pce, ElusiveMind The Tea Party wrote:We exist in a world where the fear of Illusion is real And we cling to the past to deny and confuse the ideal DMTripper wrote:Bliss of ignorance -> pain of knowledge -> integrate -> bliss of knowledge.

Ill put another vote in for India. One heck of a trip. Falling in Love is also the experience of a lifetime, but you cant exactly plan that. “Right here and now, one quanta away, there is raging a universe of active intelligence that is transhuman, hyperdimensional, and extremely alien... What is driving religious feeling today is a wish for contact with this other universe.” ― Terence McKenna
