I have heard from a lot of people that in 60s or 70s, there was this culture common. People doing LSDs, dancing, having strange aesthetics, entry of Eastern religions into West and all that spirituality and if I am not wrong, conservative institutions of that time in West like church, families, and etc. did not like that and were in opposition of that.
I have never met a person who used to be a hippy so I thought why not ask here. What made you a hippy? What was your parents’ reaction? How long did you remain a hippy? How was the experience?


what is teepee and GI bill?
A teepee is the fabric cone type of housing often associated with native Americans, though they were used all over the world.
The GI bill provides everyone who served in the military a handful of things after they’re done, the main one being college tuition. So my dad got free college because he served during the Vietnam war.
