I don’t even know where to begin. I’m just so excited to be part of Datura one more year. My gratitude is impossible to put into words.

I’ve been raving for 12 years, and if you had told my younger self that one day I’d find a space where I could truly express myself, without fear, without having to explain who I am, without being judged, I don’t think I would have believed you.

To me, Datura has always been that space. A place to love, to connect, to care, to hold each other, to simply exist together.

Last year’s edition stayed with me long after the music stopped. It inspired me to dedicate my master’s thesis to the feeling people gave me there, to this strange, beautiful energy that emerges when we gather.

A whole year of research led me through raving, collectiveness, trauma, healing, and everything in between. And somehow, after all the reading, the interviews, the thinking, I came back to one simple thought:

Being a raver means bringing your baggage onto the dancefloor and letting it dissolve into everyone else’s baggage.

There’s something deeply human about that. Something incredibly healing.

So after a year of exhaustion, I honestly can’t wait to be back. Back on the dancefloor, back with all of you, playing the music I love alongside my lovely @__yannos .

Thank you, Prism and Revolt, for making this possible. For creating and protecting this space.

Forever and ever yours. 🪬
