One of our first big “dates” was to Burning Man, which is definitely a bold move, but turned out to be the right one. It was 2009. Laura had been to Burning Man and regional burns before but had just started law school, so she wasn’t sure it was a good year to go. After hearing all of Laura’s crazy stories, Javi had worked up a healthy appetite for all things BURN so he wisely convinced Laura to pack up and head out. We continued to burn every year thereafter until 2014, helping to organize a camp of all our buddies and hosting lots of fun events.
Needless to say, the burn community is a big part of our lives, and the last year we went we wanted to contribute to the playa in a different than just events. We decided to do an art project with our good friends. The Secret Trading Post was an amazing experience for all of us. It was a place where folks gathered to share and trade their secrets, and became really transformational for us and the folks who interacted with the space.
