About me:

The Boing! Collective exists for the purpose of providing/reviving a sense of openness and community for those who may feel disenchanted or alienated from the society in which we live. We are here to spread political awareness, hopefully leading to action in some way or another, and to show that there IS another way to live outside of the impersonal and destructive (on so many levels) system that has been marketed to us from every angle since the day we were born. We are an open household of tightly knit friends who are dedicated to the all-encompassing struggle that a long history of fear and exploitation has and will continue to ensure we all experience. As such, we have given up many small personal comforts in order to provide comfort for anyone seeking it. .. ..

Who I'd like to meet:

Open minded people seeking knowledge and a new way.
