Swim's first breakthrough with Salva Divinorum occurred when he smoked it in a dorm room. He and his friend just opened the window and smoked near it. The room had a smoke detector but was big enough that it didn't really matter.
Here is swim's experience, from
this thread.

The room was 12 feet by 12 feet, and fairly cluttered. Swim and his friend went to the window in the corner opposite the door and set up for smoking. They put a fan up to help filter air out the window and posistioned the chair in the cramped space so they could easily blow smoke out the window.
Time came to smoke. Swim packed a medium size bowl and lit it up. He sucked greedily on the pipe taking in as much smoke as possible, but he went too far. He choked and started hacking and wretching. He passed off the pipe to his friend and went to lay on the couch. His friend started hitting the pipe as he lay there, a bit confused. He felt a bit stoned almost, but it wasn't a full salvia experience. He had messed up when he coughed.
Swim's friend finished killing his bowl and handed the pipe back to swim. Swim told his friend to lay on the couch (swim's friend was pretty out of it by this point) while he packed a fat bowl to help him break through, he wasn't going to call this night a waste.
Swim lit the bowl up with his butane, being sure to get every corner of the bowl red hot. He alternated taking hits of smoke and air until he couldn't hold anything more in his lungs, then he held it all in for as long as possible. Time went by, swim isn't sure how much, and he exhaled sharply. Thats when all memory of the experience becomes very fuzzy and swim leaves the world.
Swim turns the chair to look at his friend, then at the door. He feels an ominous presence, strange for a salvia trip he thinks. The door is almost glowing, and the whole room seems to brighten as it is enveloped by a blindingly pure white light.
Swim grows increasingly confused. The whole room is gone from his consciousness. All he can see is white, though he still can sense the confines of the room itself. Its as if the walls are completely white yet he can still tell where one wall starts and another one ends. All other sensory perception is shut off.
Swim doesn't know where he is. He keeps seeing visions of strange things. He finds his mind in a garden talking to odd creatures, though he is able to distinguish between his mind and his body (which is in the white room), and he keeps finding his thoughts getting cut off and his consciousness sucked back to the white space.
Swim grows anxious, especially as he hears voices in his head (maybe it was the plants, swim isn't sure) telling him not to go back to the white space, as it is controlled by a malevolent force.
Swim is trapped in the white space for good now. He pushes with his mind trying to escape its featureless confines but a voice in his head tells him (without speaking mind you, swim just knows what it is saying somehow) he is a prisoner and in a prison camp, he cannot leave and they will keep him there. Swim struggles with all his might to get out but he can't. His mind starts to tire as the force of the white space takes over his mind bit by bit, instilling paranoia and fear into his spirit.
Time goes by, swim isn't sure. His mind has processed a vast jumble of confused thoughts, perceptions, emotions, and ideas in whatever time has passed since he was first confined to the white space. The white light begins to fade and he can see the shape of the room take form again. Slowly but surely everything falls into recognizable order. The salvia is slowly loosening its grip.
By now swim can see the whole room as it was before with little perception alteration but he still can't move. The salvia is still trying to keep him prisoner, and he can't move from his seat.
More time passes (swim had no sense of time the entire experience) and swim slowly rises, his friend already sitting up trying to contemplate his own experience. Swim is very disoriented and has trouble walking. The two agree to go out for a cigarette.
They get outside only to find a police officer sitting in the smoking area having a cigarette of his own. This freaks swim out a bit, though he is under control enough to keep cool. He feels like shit puffing on the cigarette, and feels as though even though he can't seem them the entities in the salvia world are still watching him in the real world.
Swim struggles up the stairs and falls into bed. He passes out immediately.
That night swim had the most insane dreams he can recollect. They were the type of dreams you have where you see every person you have known your entire life.
Swim was at a party in Northern Italy with everyone from his life. Many of the people were still the same age as when he knew them years ago (including little kids) but swim didn't know he was dreaming so he didn't notice.
The party took place at a cabin on a Mountain surrounded by snow. There were Nazi SS men with machine guns standing all around making sure no one left.
Swim doesn't recall anything else from the dream in particular, but thought it funny that the whole being kept prisoner theme stuck in his dream a bit. Also interesting was how much of the dream he was able to recall after waking up, even later in the day though he hadn't written any of it down.

One reason why the experiment was not repeated in the dorm room, aside from the terrible trip produced, was that a number of people mentioned the weird smell coming from the room afterwards.
It won't be confused for weed by campus security or any other authorities, but it will make the hall outside the room smell like crap. It would also been fun explaining the smell to people without telling them you were smoking in a dorm room.
Swim recommends smoking Salvia outside somewhere. Is there a park or other nice, comfortable, beautiful (or at least good looking), and open natural area near swiy? If so, swim would highly recommend smoking the salvia there as opposed to inside, especially in a dorm room!
