    A friend of mine that came with us said he had come up with a narrative for his time at [Transformus](http://www.transformus.com) and I thought that was a good idea. Before our trip we spoke to many people about where we were going. Have you heard of [Burning Man](http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burning_man “Wikipedia: Burning Man”)? 9 out of 10…
