Not quite 43 yet and living in the North East of England. I'm fairly new to the Druidic path but, with everything I've been reading and experiencing recently, I've probably followed it all my life.

I've been visiting for a little over a month and I decided it was time to finally introduce myself. I live in the state of Maine in the USA, I'm 47 years old and I'm new to the Druid path. I'm really only just in the exploratory stages, but I've already discovered that many of the basic principles of Druidry resonate with my own core beliefs about life, the universe and everything. About 10 years ago I read Philip Carr-Gomm's The Druid Way, found it quite moving and thought-provoking, but at that time I don't think I was ready to explore Druidry yet. Recently, however, circumstances in my life have led me back in this direction. I hope to take the courses at some point in the future when my somewhat pinched finances allow for it, but for now I'm learning everything I can by other means.

Hello,

We're two living in the centre of France (70 km from Orléans). Respectively 60 and 48 years old. After a long way in many matters of spirituality, we've found the OBOD (with satisfaction :D ).

Hello and greetings from Finland. Just joined this message board. :hiya:

I'm 36 and I've recently started to feel that druidry might be a path for me. I enjoy walks in the woods, reading, sometimes writing, music. For some reason I've always been interested in Celtic things. I'm here to meet people who are also interested in similar things and to learn more about what modern druidry can be.

Hello all from the Canadian Foothills!

Though I’m pretty new to these boards and OBOD in general I recently discovered that I’ve been following the path of Druidry my whole life, I just didn’t know what it was called. From the time I took out a giant book on the Celts from the library (I was about 13 I think), to when I finally got up the courage to first contact a local Druid (that was 2003) and meet with her (2004), then finally after years of self study joining organized groups at Samhain 2007.

These days I’m working through the Bardic grade as best I can but its going slower then I had hoped. Someday though I’ll get there. IN the mean time I hope to troll these boards often :) !

Hello!
I'm 26 and I'm from the driftless zone in Wisconsin, along the Mississippi River. I only heard of modern druidry a few years ago and only in the past few months have I been able to admit to myself that my interest was more than academic. So here I am. :hiya:

Good Morning,(or afternoon depending on your time zone)

Glad to have found these boards, I am a 47 year old living in the Northeast US, and have followed the old ways for most of my adult life, it is nice with the electronic magic to be able to converse with those of like minds.

I have my own grove and keep the traditions alive in my own little ways, Had the pleasure of being in the UK for awhile in the past and meeting some of my brethren there.

My respects and blessing to all on these boards,

Hi all, I'm Josh And I'm 15.

I currently reside in Daytona Bch. Florida and found your website today while aimlessly browsing the internet in my 1st block class.
I've traveled from religion to religion trying to find something that I fit into, and I really enjoy what i've found here for the most part.
I'm not really religious but I believe that nature created everything we see around us. So in a way, I view nature as my god. I've been playing bass for 4 years or so now and guitar since December. I thoroughly enjoy cannabis, I don't see it as way to just get high, but rather a way of opening up my mind to new possibilities and ideas.

It's very nice to meet you all and I look forward to becoming a part of your community.
