Story & Experience
I told a story at a festival in Devon UK that led into an Earth Exchange in honour of the A30 nearby, a road made infamous by the road protests that preceded it which tried to save the ancient woodland that it ploughed right through. We read out the list of earth exchanges around the world and made a bird out of people. It was very rich and moving. I will send you the photo and the story when I can.
