Honestly Im a little shell-shocked to actually be going to Hivefest. Apart from the digital versions during the pandemic, the last time I attended was 2017 in Lisbon! (And amazingly I still manage to appear 3 times in this years promo video! ha).
I had such a good time, and every year I would say to myself, man, I wish I could get to hivefest again. Thailand! wow, if only..... Krakow....so close, and yet so far...... MEXICO!? what a dream, I wish I could've made it. But no. its been 7 years and just a couple of strange VR experiences to keep my dreams alive...
BUT NOW.
its time to SPLIT.
I havn't left the uk for about 5 years, since before the lockdowns, and for some reason Im feeling a little nervous about the whole endeavour. Planes, bookings and different languages arent my strong points (although Ive been learning some C# for my Unity game dev course!) but it will be a treat to see some Hivians and have a drink in another culture. Its good to get out of your comfort zone sometimes. Right?
If anyone is around in split on Monday evening and wants to meet up, throw me a discord message at Basil#1118
huge love to you all as ever
