Summary

Astrid H speaking at Prime Time Friday - Raw And Uncensored in the summer of 2013, there are some Q & A toward the end, some of the questions are hard to hear but Astrid does makes them pretty clear from her answers. Repost from June of 2020. NSFW I just added a couple of items to the event list. The Northwest Fellowship of the Spirit Conference in Stanwood Washington toward the end of August. The AA International going on in 2025 up in Vancouver BC, you cant register yet, but heads up if you are thinking of going and you have a DUI in your past, look into being able to get into Canada, follow the links on the event page for more info. I live close to border in Bellingham WA and know folks that have been refused entry, depending on your history getting cleared can be a slow process.
