Looking for Connecting with people on our next road trip


Hey y’all, my boyfriend and I are starting to plan our next trip exploring states we are wanting to settle down in.
We are hoping to connect with individuals that live in the area and are willing to host and or show us around.
We are traveling through north Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, and Southern Pennsylvania. We are heading out at the start of the new year this January.
We are interested in finding an area with friendly communities (does not have to be an established intentional community) that we can join.
If you are interested in connecting, please send me a personal message and we can set something up!
