well, perhaps not taking over but certainly travelling a significant distance.
I'm a spinner/juggler/stilter/whatevericanfinder from glasgow in scotland and this july and august i will be heading for new zealand (yay!!!) and was wondering if anyone has suggestions on places to go, people to meet etc etc. I also dont know any local rules and regulations on what you can and cant do with fire so some info would be appreciated.

welcome! tell us more about yourself! I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.

well..umm... what can i say....
Female, 21, pyromaniac medical student living in glasgow who started out stilt walking a few years back after a sleepless night movie watching with my cousin's flatmate turning into a "can i have a go of your stilts?" that ultimately led to my joining a juggling club where poi is probably my most practiced skill as well as balls, clubs, diablo, contact juggling, staff and making a crack at bullwhip (see what i did there ^_^).
At the moment i'm busy trying to choreograph/practice my act for the scottish juggling convention show which i have been roped into again this year after doing a UV thing at last years show that everyone seemed to think was terribly original of me for some reason *shrugs*
I just perfected behind the back weave and am super chuffed to wee bits about it ^_^ Lately also to dispel the myth that spinners cant juggle i'm learning club juggling and i can go a whole 7 secs before dropping them now ^_^
Anything else you need to know?
oh btw my poi are pink ^_^

spinners can't juggle? i never heard that one. i felt like i was a phreak for being a spinner and NOT being able to juggle.

Ok, it's cool if you want to take over the world. Except can you just spare me one tiny tropical island? that's all I want.
Welcome aboard!

Hello!
When you take over the world can you teach us how to juggle? On an island? Juggling makes me nuts and cold weather makes me...cold.
