Hello everyone! My name is Tony.
I recently came to visit NH during this latest Porcfest to visit and see how I liked the free state. I'd known about FSP for several years now, as well as shire society, and only recently got this chance to visit. Like most people, Free Talk Live was my introduction to these groups and to many of the ideas presented by them.
Once the festival was over, I went to Manchester to check out the city. I ended up loving this state, and especially loving the people, however, I learned fairly quickly how hard it is to live without a car here.
So I needed to go back to California and get my Jeep Wrangler and start getting settled in Manch. I've been driving across the country the past week, and while I'm pretty worn out from the road, I still would like to visit Keene and meet some fellow free staters before I reach my final destination in Manchester.
As for myself, I'm just your average guy who believes in liberty, the non-aggression principal, and all that good stuff. I just graduated with a degree in computer science, and am looking to get a job making software; either here in NH, or in Northern Mass. if I need to. I think I can do well out here - make a good life for myself with more personal freedoms - and once I get established, I have a few ideas for some agorist businesses I can run on the side.
Not sure what else to say about myself, but if you have questions just ask and I'll try to get back to you before I hit the road. Should be arriving around 5pm if all goes well with my travels.
Looking forward to meeting everyone (or re-meeting if I saw you at Porcfest).
Cheers!
-Tony

We look forward to seeing you in Manchester in the near future.

Hi Tony! Glad to see that you're passing though. I don't think I'll be able to make it up to Keene to hang out today, but welcome to the area, and good luck!
Tony, I'll PM you a location you can drop by and meet a few folks.
Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I'm making a brief pit stop in Albany to grab lunch with another free state friend who will be moving next month to NH. I'll be in Keene more around 6:30-7. Hope that works.
Went a little longer than I thought; just leaving now. I imagine you guys will be raging until pretty late though, given it's a Friday.
It was good meeting people last night and caravaning over to Manchester. Too bad the checkpoint got canceled; I was looking forward to doing my first bit of activism. Better for all the free travelers though I suppose.
Hoping to check out Keene for real soon, instead of just driving through in the dark. You can find me on Facebook, I'm friends with many free staters and part of some of the FSP groups.
