Finally, I went to Holland and got Mushrooms. Just tried to review Leo's video on it, took some notes as I could follow while under the effects. I bought a light Mushrooms called "Psilocybe Mexicana". I had someone to what me, also kept a notebook and a pen to take some notes while tripping. I followed the instruction, I ate half of the package, I didn't eat food in the informed period and chewed it slowly. The taste was terrible, but still doable. However, I threw up 2 times. Then, I sat down on the bed with my notebook, I felt my body really weird, kind of a bit dizzy. I was more alert and surprisingly at ease. Because I wasn't psychologically good for this trip with mushrooms, however, as I was there, then I followed the plan and decided to take it. I turned the radio on with happy songs as Leo advised in one of his videos. Maybe, it worked. Although, I was expecting a bad trip I had a good one. I slept a little bit and woke up laughing. I was all the moment aware I was under the mushrooms. I thought I could lose myself before trying it, but no. I was observing what was happening around me, how my body was reacting. I didn't have the control of it, however, my awareness was above it all the time. When I closed my eyes I didn't have control, just colourful stuff was coming into my mind with geometric images. And if I opened my eyes and focused on something I saw some slightly colourful patterns waiving. My chatting mind stopped and the pain and conflicts that I had in my mind minutes before ingested it stopped as well. What I thought really interesting were the effects that psychedelics give you. I couldn't control anything, but anyway my conscious was there and still had clarity of mind. Another thing that I just had a glimpse, but I wish I could have the chance to explore more was for some moment closing my eyes and open it was just one thing. It was just a small feeling experience and then it disappeared. I mean it was the first time. I need to do it more and see what I will get.

I was taking a look at Leo's blog and I found that video "The Anarchist Commune in the Rainforest: Poole’s Land". This video shows a kind of extreme green community where it allows many people to stay there for some days, months or even years. Also, they cultivate their own food and live in a healthier way. It doesn't seem totally easy, but seems worthy to try. They seem to have good values, they look happy, compassionate about each other and genuine. Then, I got excited and started searching for other communities and found the one below. This one seems more strategical as they created it intentionally. Some of the people built their own houses thinking about sustainability, also cultivate their own food and have spiritual values. It seems a kind of stage green passing through stage yellow? Anyway, I thought it so nice as an alternative for those who live in the mainstream society as it seems a healthier way of living, where we find better values and we are more aware of our impact on this planet and work towards that. Decided to share it as it's such an inspiring thing! I don't know if you guys have the same feeling, but being in the mainstream society doesn't feel it's the correct thing. Even if you try to be more aware and make your part, it's a system where you're inserted in and it's hard to be sure if you are really working towards what you believe to be right (if you're worried about the environment and being mentally and physically healthy) or it's the opposite. Lately, I've thought about how to live more in accordance with these values and I think checking new possibilities that already exist may inspire us to have new ideas to built or move towards new things.

@Whoami3 Because I was thinking of starting something natural as I haven't tried anything. After mushroom I was thinking of LSD.

@Girzo Yep, that was the why I didn't try them. Despite I've found many information; it wasn't totally clear in the end. I know here there are many people who are used with picking up mushrooms and they know about them; However they know about the eatable ones, and the impression that I had was even the Magic Mushrooms could be called as poisoned as they are not option for some of these people. And also I've found that those mshrooms that are similar with Psilocybe Semilanceata wouldn't be poisoned. Well, anyway not sure about it. The research was good to learn a little bit and go to places and watch all the mushrooms, but for sure I didn't feel safe enough to try them. Look at these ones, they are cool; it was nice observing them.

@Seed Yes, In fact Netherlands is close; it's my second idea. But good to know about these smart shops, the time that I was in Netherlands I was thinking where exactly and how to ask for that, but I forgot the ida as I had other purposes there. Back in Poland I've also heard about these growing kits. I need to check if it's safe to bring the growing kit or the truffles inside the flight; if not, also there is the train option. I've heard train should be ok. Thank you for the information.

@Leo Gura Yes, I agree. That's why I didn't use these mushrooms. Instead I started searching with locals people here have the habit of picking mushrooms, and talking to a Polish friend then we started researching about that and I seized we were at the end of the season for them and went to pick some, but we didn't get enough information to know if at least these mushrooms weren't poisoned. But I think the small research and experience were worthy to know a bit more.

Hi, I´m writting here, because I´m looking for Magic Mushrooms; however, it´s not something so easy to find here in Poland. I´ve tried to talk to some friends who has experienced it before and speak Polish as I´m not from here. What I discovered is here we can find "Psilocybe Semilanceata"; then, I started hunting them. we are in the end of the season as it starts from September and goes until the beginning of November. I´ve found some, and they are similar to the one I´ve found on internet, however there are two features that didn´t match: most pictures on the internet show that this mushroom has a salient tip on the top of its cap and mine doesn´t have it and most of the pictures show the mushrooms are small and I got medium ones. I keep researching it with people around and on the internet to check if they are the right mushrooms; I don´t want to intake the poisonous ones. Thus, does anyone have any extra information regarding to Magic Mushrooms in Poland?
