I'm in Heidelberg, Germany this week, and I've encountered an excellent project that I think ought to exist in the United States. Or maybe it already does and I'm not aware of it? It's called Dorfpride, and it's essentially an annual road-trip to create new Pride events in remote villages, so queer folks who don't live in big cities can still connect with their larger community.

Thank you! Alas I leave Heidelberg tomorrow morning for Munich, but I hope to be back soon -- I really love it here. It's so beautiful, and surprisingly queer for a smaller city! Reminds me of Cambridge in the US, with all the academia.

This is great! I love this whole concept. Also, a very good arena for everyone to demonstrate allyship in their own communities, making it more visible and solid.

Oh, hope Munich treated (or is treating) you well (hometown pride and all that ^.^ )
