welcome to HAZ

bring a lust for adventure, everything else will fall into place

Okay, okay I have a responsibility here so I better not go with that alone...
You're going to get all sorts of answers and invites. If you go with the bare minimum you'll be smiling more on the way back. If you have a place and general date in mind you might share that as it will help others give advice.
