Angelique, NEST is a Gathering, more than likely the world's largest one. At least once a year, usually in the spring, we come to Philadelphia for a great big ticklish party that lasts two or three days. People from all over the world attend. Take a look into the General Gatherings Section, if you'd like. There's a ton of good information in there on NEST and all the other events nationwide, including testimonials from people who've come and experienced it. Max and Jan could give you even more information, if you ask them sweetly. 😉
