Desert Hearts

Penguin Wanderlust October 7, 2017

Desert Hearts

My travel partner for my big California trip had arranged with Vancouver friends to celebrate her 50th birthday at Desert Hearts.

Travel – Getting There

I had already come down from the island for the Los Angeles regional Burning Man event.

Nature

I didn’t see much nature while I was at Desert Hearts. It’s held on a hilltop on a reservation. There were many trees.

Art

The stage was the most beautiful one I’ve ever seen. One day I even spied a mermaid behind it.

These stilt walkers were awesome.

Desert Hearts stiltwalkers

I wanted a pair of heart shaped sunglasses like many people were wearing but I waited too late to go looking for them.

Travel – Homeward Bound

This trip was a sub-set of a 5 week exploration of the American south-western deserts.

Summary

I would have gone back this year but there was a two week gap between BEquinox and Desert Hearts. I connected well with the people in the neighbouring RVs and left having found new friends – Ajay, Dee, and Billy.

Carolyn Pullman, aka Penguin Wanderlust, is a traveller who loves to explore and experience new adventures. More of a country mouse than a town mouse discovering gardens is a favourite pastime. The plants differ so widely depending on the part of the world and the climate.

Festivals and camping are also big draws. She is a burner who has been to 25 burns around the world including Burning Man 7 times (2009-2014, 2016) and 18 regional burns including Otherworld (BC, Canada), Recompression (BC, CA), Burn in the Forest (BC, CA), Freezer Burn (Alberta, Canada), Critical Northwest (WA, USA), T-Bois Blues Festival and Burning Bayou Village (LA, USA), BEquinox (CA, USA), The Borderland (Sweden), and Second Life (official online burn).
