Back from Steemfest: What a rollercoaster ride it has been🎢

in #backfromsteemfest6 years ago (edited)

Pffewww the rollercoaster continued while I got home. So I believe I’m just in time for telling my Steemfest story. Will try to keep it short. Yes yes I know I can be sometimes to comprehensive while typing my posts… 🤣

Steemfest

My return home wasn’t without troubles I discovered that my car its roof got scratched on my way back home. Problem with that I needed to switch my old car for the new one the moment I returned home. So little problem for me, took me some time to arrange things for this. The insurance will cover the repair, I hope. The process is running.🤔

The funniest photo you took.

While wandering through Krakow old town we came across this guy suited up in metal. IT was a friendly knight feeding a dove, thought they were supposed to guard the castle, this one was busier with other things, but actually it’s my Double Salty movie does that count to?

Knight

No... Pff lucky me I'm having another one with good old Dutch habits. @for91days and @mrprofessor enjoying peanut butter with sprinkles.😍

Sprinkles

The most embarrassing situation you were involved in.

I think that was while I was talking about Steemmonsters with @for91days and I actually didn’t know what it was. While @aggroed was standing behind me. He reached over and said he could tell me something about it. He did not only tell a lot about the game, but he even showed it while playing, and did ruin some of his cards so I could see what options cards could get. Thanks for that! Still learning the game but had some great matches already while playing.

The coolest/most interesting story/anecdote you have about SF.

You know what people always said at Facebook back in the days, only so many profile-clicks away from any random person and you will end up with someone you knew. Well I did surprise @for91days a little bit. After our night of bowling we were joking around, He and @soyrosa were more or less teasing me while on the way back from the bowling to the Qubus. Don’t remember how we got there exactly but it turned out the world isn’t that big. The partner from @for91days did his study in Athens Ohio, and I’ve been there too. Of all the places in the world our worlds connected somehow far far away in a small town called Athens. First he didn’t believe me at all! 😜 But lucky me I had some proof in the form of my old student card (I always use it for discounts while on the road).

The photo you have with the most Steemians in it.

The photo most of the people are using is from the diner in the mines. I don't have one from there (to busy talking...😇) so I need to come up with another one. I think a picture from the first day while everyone was waking up and in search for a coffee and looking like this 😖. Sorry 😈

Coffee

Your new favorite Steemian (can be three, I know we met so many new people).

Shoot isn’t it the fling question than you get another question you’ll feel almost embarrassed about because one way or the other you’ll hurt another Steemian… Oh wait I can cheat!😇

Your overall experience about the whole event.

Had a great time during Steemfest I’m went from surprise to surprise to another wonderful meeting with a fellow Steemian! Couldn’t imagine on forehand how my first Steemfest would look like, My expectation was a great meetup with people who want to have some fun. All of that is true but I didn’t expect it with this impact!

First day
Food

Everyone is talking, connecting to each other but they are also really interested in YOU and do really want to know who you are. The game from @arcange for sure did help a lot at this one. But same as this post, and the #roadtosteemfestposts on forehand by @anomadsoul where part of my Steemfest fun.

Day 2
@ytrphoto
@remyhauxle

There were so many cool events the time we spent together in Poland. From the opening drinks, the conference itself, to a crazy bowling competition with an endless supply of money (or actually drinks), get out with an Uber for a hamburger meal to arrive and hear that the kitchen is closed. But that was also the reason you find out that Krakow has lots of pretty good streetfood. Had a diner hundreds of meters beneath the surface in a mine. Hmm I think there was a lot of food involved these days.. Oh they’re small but I can’t forget the Dumplings for sure. But the Nutella dessert thing was the best!

Ok there where some serious things to. Like listening to some people who were speaking like @aggroed, @llfarms, @arcange or @remyhauxle for example. Got some private presentations for @travelfeed possibilities too, from the people behind @wise and @engrave for example. Last but not least I did meet my Steem (surf) hero @surfermarly 🤙

From all these small talks and hugs you get hungry for some adventure, so we went out and search for it. We did some urbex exploration at the train graveyard just outside of Krakow. After all the party stuff I wandered around by night through the old town for some night photography.

And at the end there was the hardest part of this event.. Saying goodbye to everyone you just got to know in real life, but it felt like a whole lifetime you’ve spent together during those long days in Krakow.

Can't wait till SF4, and I think that would say enough about how much I enjoyed being part of Steemfest. Can it at least be a day longer next year?

The most random photography you took with your phone and you don´t even know why it is there.

The reason I place this picture, well I got no clue at all how it’s possible that my board got cracked and my roof got scratched in a garage under the ground. So still don’t know why I needed to take this picture, would have been better if I didn’t had to. 😜

ill be a mystery for always what happened here 👻. So no session on the river for me in Krakow…

Had a great day anyway with @for91days, @mrprofessor and @goodwithtravels strolling through Krakow and enjoying the sun😎

Hehe well my main goal was to put all the names in the post because it will be easier to find for me when we start writing new posts #roadtosteemfest for SF4. So I placed it in my story but I hated how that look liked after publishing it... So I thought well put in another group picture with all the names from the people who have joined and put it in the ALT tag. So everyone who wants to read can read, but it won't destroy my layout. 😎

How's life going after Steemfest?

Nice one! :)

I'm mostly working hard on fancy new secret things soon to be released ;)

Fancy new secret things... Oeh you make me curious now :D
What is the planned date for releasing them?

Everyone is talking, connecting to each other but they are also really interested in YOU and do really want to know who you are.

^^ This. And it did feel like a lifetime packed into a week. Thanks for sharing your angle on it. I wanted to hook up with @mrprofessor but it didn't work out—glad you got some time with him. Steem on!

Sorry that it didn't work out for a meetup with the professor... Wish I've had known during SF😔 Than I would have arranged a breakfast with you and the professor with sprinkels 🤩
But even without that specific meet it was a great party right?😀

Fantastic report @guchtere ! Looks like u put a lot of work into that one! Next year I wanna join Steemfest as well. Seems like great fun! Cheers

So next year we will meet?😎 Although I read you'll be in Germany later this year? Where will you stay during that time?

Nice post! I don't think we met, so it's nice to read your post about your time at SteemFest. I see you're using Flickr? I started up a Flickr group called Steemfest so feel free to drop your photos in there if you like. So far it's just me - ha ha.

That's why I want an extra day for SF, way to many people I didn't speak to. And imagine if more and more people will join SF in the future.

Good initiative to start a group at Flickr. Will post my pictures in it when I'm done selecting! Already joined the group👍

What an amazing and detailed review of a wonderful gathering meeting so many awesome people 💛
Those pictures are superbe!!!

I wish we two had more talky time together!!! Next time!!!

I totally feel the same because I am not really that great with small talk :) we will have another chance for sure one day

The writing was easy with all those awesome people I've met. I can't even tell all the stories because I won't be finished till the end of the year. 🤣

Thanks for the compliment 😊

Can you imagine what it will be when I finally write my summery of all three fests 🙈🥰🤩

You'll never make it till the end of the year....!

Will you make it before SF4?😈 Because I would love to read all those stories 😇

Hahhaa! True true 🤪😂😁

It was truly unforgettable amigo! And I was only there half of the time, I can only imagine how some more extra days were just increasing the fun.

Totally in for next year, but most likely we will see us before that time already somewhere in Europe! It was a pleasure meeting you
