Moving to Austin
I just joined this community, so I thought I'd give a quick intro...I hope nobody minds.
Anyway, I'm Athene. My husband and I (and our two cats - Boris and Natasha) are moving to Austin in August so I can attend UT Austin's Library Science program.
Currently we live in Northampton, Massachusetts (where we both went to college) with our cats. About a year ago we had a beautiful Renaissance-style pagan wedding, complete with a handfasting and all our bridal party in elemental colors. While in college, I was very involved in the Association for Smith Pagans and helped plan/lead large group rituals. My husband is more of the solitary practitioner type.
I could go more into my life, but I don't want to overshare too much. Let's just say that I'm excited to be moving back to somewhere warmer (I'm from New Orleans), scared because I have no idea where to live or anything like that, and pleased to find out there are other pagan people in Austin. Any help with areas to live in, apartment complexes to avoid, that sort of thing would be really helpful. Feel free to e-mail me at athene [dot] numphe [at] gmail [dot] com if you don't want to leave a message here.
Thanks!
