Alex604 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Which things shouldn't I forget at home?? Also, is it a problem to bring glass bottles? Or is anything confiscated at the entrance? Thanks for your help... it's my first time at BOOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spifer jo Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Well, the first thing I must recommend is SHADES. You can take anything you want. It will NOT be confiscated at BOOM gates (unless it's an hidden person). Remember BOOM is placed around a BIG LAGOON, so it's like going to a festival and the beach all in 1. To resume: take what you think you might need for a 5 day stay with the most beautiful people in the world, in a real FREAK GATHERING VILLAGE. See u there... Note: it really is HOT during the day. Note2: don't forget your tkt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkeletonMan Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 aaaawwww, u r my best friend!!!! 570710[/snapback] Yeah, I bring my own small kitchen too. But as I recall prices aren't too bad. And with the amount of food one usually eats (or doesn't eat at a festival) I don't think it's the food that will ruin the budget. But, yeah, if you bring shade you WILL get friends. And possibly something to attach them to. Not only are there no trees to provide shade. Also there are no trees to attach shades to I'll camp next to a big old ass camper and attach my shades to that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delars Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 at night you might need a torch, and i'm also bringing something to put money nshit in to keep it dry when swimming. i think i'll just buy my f00dz in that small village close to boom, then somehow carry it to the festival r something, don't know yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkeletonMan Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 oh yeah, bring a water container. Like one that can take 10 liters. Saves you a lutta walks ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xamanist Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 i don't trust their water for drinking. Only if i'm almost dying bring shades and structure to build them up. you must be very fast entering boom (impossible) or else trees/shades are taken and leveled grounds too (leaving you the 45º style of ground) as for food, in the village everything is very very cheap. you can go there and buy cheaper food. Inside Boom standard meal/dish costs 3-4 booms... drinks 1,5 or 2 booms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I highly recommend bringing a sleeping mat to place under your sleeping bag. Portugal does get rather dry in the summer and the soil can get a bit hard. Furthermore, parts of the camping areas have quite a few stones.
