Hi there! My name is Maven and I'm pretty new to this site. I'm 22 and trans masc (they/he) and I'm currently a junior at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado, but I'm originally from California. I need more buddies who love the outdoors (I'm a natural resource management major), animals, crafts, zines, punk and some EDM music, stand-up paddle boards, Minecraft, and more! I'm super chatty and usually outgoing and I have a super amazing girlfriend of 3 years too. I also run/founded a submission-based zine on Instagram (you should totally check it out I'm always looking for submissions or to trade through the mail!)
Can't wait to chat with you guys,
Maven!

Welcome Maven!
I'm from the Fort Collins area, too. I went to high school in Loveland and have tons of family in the area, but we are not in touch. I'm in Pueblo now. I just moved back here from South Dakota, where I spent ten years gold mining.
I have always been the outdoor type. Grew up in the desert in California, so I love the desert, but I love the mountains more. I have been hiking, camping, hunting, and fishing most of my life. Now, my focus is more on gold prospecting and rockhounding.
It is always good to have a kindred spirit join the site.

Hiya from the UK Maven! Welcome to the mad house!
A lot of us love the outdoors, me included though I don't know if we have any stand up paddle boarders here. I'm sure someone will pipe up if there are any. I'm keen on landscape and wildlife photography so I get out and about when I can.
There are a few of us (like me and Charlotte) who have been into EDM (as you yanks call it) from the start of it in the late 80's/ 90's. A lot of rock fans and other genres too of course. I'm sure there will be people on here who you can relate to
