Welcome to the East Bay Travel Club! Come out to meet people who like to travel the world, find out about their past experiences and advice on future adventures. Who knows but you might find travel companions and have great fun?

We are group of people who like to travel the world not only as tourists, but as spiritual pilgrims.  Many of us are psychics, seers, astrologers, healers, and some are just plain ol' wanderlusters. We prefer to explore first hand the things within a culture that are beautiful and stimulating to the mind, body and spirit.  We engage both the indigenous cultures and natural beauty of the countries we visit and we always meet local healers and spiritual leaders. Martin Buber said, "All journeys ha …

I've been studying Esperanto for a while and would like to find other people who are interested in studying together on a weekly basis. I've already used Esperanto while traveling, including an intensive language course in Europe. I plan to use it on my next trips as well.

We'll try to get some fluent speakers to help out when possible. All levels are welc …

This group is an experiment. This group was inspired by a friend's use of her mascots to document her overseas trip and then some of her hiking in the Bay Area Ridge Trail & More group. It added a humor and a personalization to her trips that is very fun and interesting. I would like to replicate and experiment with this idea with the creation of this group. So then, the purpose of this group is to bring out the innocent or child in us, as we hike or travel, through the persona of a mascot. This …

Variety is the spice of life, says the old adage. I think veg*ns can do a lot of different things as veg*ns, besides just eating together. I do like trying good restaurants, and I do like potlucks, but that's not all there is to life. Veg*ns need to find friends with whom they share other interests, besides a similar diet. In my life, music, dancing, movies, art, theatre, games, literature, dogs, nature, travel, museums, and animal welfare all contribute to my sense of identity, and my feeling t …
