My name is Eric and I'm looking to join a community. I'm by no means a veteran of this sort of thing being only 21 and having only read about it. All that aside this is something I definitely want to do. I was hoping this site could help me with finding a community to join. I'm never quite sure how to introduce myself and I'm always worried about coming off as either uncommitted (I'm very committed) or that I'm too young and unskilled.

Here's to eventually finding a place to call home and these forums helping me get there.

Also if anyone reading this is interested in an incredibly hard working youth with more ambition than knowledge to work within your community you can email me at ericloesch@ymail.com

I'm very willing to relocate within the continental U.S.

Hi Eric, I sympathize. I'm 26 now and it's obvious we still have a lot to learn, but we surely compensate with our will (and need) to go ahead. It's a hard time for young people in Europe, but due to this I start to notice a significant amount of youngsters who are willing to take this same path, while a few years ago this was like a dumb thing to do just for idealists or hippies or whatever. The future is ours after all, try to learn as much as you can anywhere you are and hope you can have luck in your search!

Hello Eric,

Did you receive the email I sent you five days ago?

You still have but one post. One and done?

Stick your head back up if you are still out there somewhere.
