I don't think it's allowed anywhere in nature to make a fire. but that doesn't mean that you can't do it

technically, fjords only exist in Norway... (although some Alaskans might claim they have them too, they're just lying to ya). they are salt-water "rivers" of a sort, coming in from the ocean, with mountains on both sides... they look like this

actually the area in those pictures is quite renowned for the salmon fishing - also there are at least two "fish farms" right near the waterfall that you can see in the second picture...
i've never been a fan of fish, but whenever i went canoeing and camping there (the region is known as Sogn og Fjordane) I would always fish for my dinner

heheh for some reason i think the extreme anti-drug laws in Norway make Holland seem like a better place for a shroomery gathering that, and a beer costs like $5 - damn welfare states putting heavy taxes on things that harm peoples health and put a burder on the socialised medicine...

Technically, no. There certainly are fjords in Iceland, Greenland, New Zealand, Newfoundland, Chile etc. And I'm pretty sure there are fjords in south and west coasts of Alaska as well.

hmm - i remember my Nynorsk teacher telling us that Norway was the only country that had actual "fjords" - something to do with the way they formed, or some technical definition... i'll have to Google this one...

I'm up for a gathering for sure. Though if its in amsterdam, then its prob best to avoid camping and just get our own accomadation, as dam has a wide range avalible.
sure it wont be like one of the usa camping gatherings but its amsterdam, so that makes it pretty different as is.
most coffee shops can accomadate us for evening and daytime meetings, so i suggest hotels, not camping.
unless we do it in the dutch country side, but as has already been said, the dutch countryside sucks.
so i say long weekend in amsterdam, find your own acomadation, and we can arrange some meeting places during the day and evening.

I'd be up for Christiania - only problem is the Copenhagen is really quite expensive, and some political forces in Denmark keep trying to shut the place down and build expensive apartments there....
but it certainly is a magical place!

A villa in portugal would be a good cheap option. but the drug scene isnt as open as it could be, with the police deciding themselves, which can prove tricky.
Though i'm more up for a long weekend in amsterdam

I think most of the shroomerites at an Holland Gathering will be Dutch shroomerites and I think most Dutch shroomerites prefer a campsite. Amsterdam is great, but it's not much different from the city where I live. Only larger and much more tourists. It's not special for me...
We are looking for a campsite at only +-45min from Amsterdam by train. A long weekend in Amsterdam is always possible for the people who want that(you only need a time and place to meet eachother), but I like the idea of a campsite near Amsterdam in nature.
About other countries; Portugal and Christiania would be great, but this will be an Europe Gathering in Holland. Fliquid started the idea and Stefan was/is trying to make this happen! It would be great if someone would organize a gathering in Portugal or whereever, wonderful idea! Make a post and make it happen! But as far as I know this will be an Europe Gathering in Holland...
