=====Our Night in SLAB CITY, California | Off-Grid Living in the Desert===== | |||
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnZTeoGS0Kw by Alexis & Lillian YouTube] | |||
We've kicked off our big US road trip and our first stop is the off-grid desert community of squatters, hippies and snowbirds in Slab City, by the Salton Sea in California's Sonoran Desert. We spent a night at Slab City Hostel (https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/17990088..., which we highly recommend if you're looking for a little adventure experience out of the ordinary and aren't fussy, visited the local night club/bar The Range for prom night and saw live musical performances, and of course visited the art of Salvation Mountain and East Jesus. Many people stopp by just to take a look at these but we highly recommend to spend at least a night there and get to know some of the locals to get some insights to life in the slabs and their reasons for living there. | |||
