I spent about 20 minutes in Nimbin, but the small strip of coffee shops, aromatherapy and hemp stores, and sight of the locals left quite an impression. Walking through this small town is like entering the twilight zone. Apparently pot is not legalized but is allowed in Nimbin, and the locals look like they arrived 30 years ago and never left. The shops all have odd names, like Happy High Herbs, and the café brownies are called “groovy cake”.
