Ren Faire Dates - 2008
Sir Edward:
Hello, welcome to the forum! What country are you in? You might be surprised. Sometimes there are swordsmanship groups to be found, or you can always try to start one. Here in the US the renfaires are all over the place. They've sprouted up all over the place over the last 30 years.
Sir Griff:
I would hardly think so, but for what it's worth, I live in Romania. I suppose you know where it is since the NATO summit was recently there, and you Americans can't really be defined by videos where they ask people on the street about random stuff (despite the fact that it makes you all look extremely bad as a whole).
Videos like that can be made to cater to every nation, and the guys making the video always leave out smart answers and only include the really, really, really stupid ones.
Sir Edward:
Well, that's true.. shows like that are always edited to provide the intended effect.
However, it's also fair to say that most Americans aren't as well traveled, in terms of Europe and the Middle East, as Europeans are. As a friend of ours pointed out, it's easy for Europeans to forget that for most Americans, it's possible to drive for over 10 hours in any direction and still be surrounded by people who speak the same language. I think its fair to assume that most people will have the greatest familiarity with their own continent.
Sir Wolf:
as a born European I know ehhehe ;) and you can travel 6 hours and still just be in my 1 state ;)
Sir Griff:
And I don't think I could try to start a swordsmanship group since I'm only 15 years old and don't really know where to learn about WMA in the first place. I'm guessing that I could try teaching myself, but that would be pretty precarious. In the future, though, who knows? I might just try doing something like this in my spare time, since I know of some people that could be interested.
But for what it's worth, I am going to Switzerland for the UEFA 2008 European tournament, and I'm staying in a German town called Freiburg. Would there be any WMA action to be found there?
