It's pretty crazy to me that I'm going to be in poland in just two days time, specially because this year has literally been the one year were I thought there was absolutely no chance for me to be traveling anywhere. Funnily enough, this will be my fourth trip and I'm still trying to wrap my head around that.
Of course, the main reasons for my other trips were not vacations, but rather business and medical, but still, it's pretty crazy for me to think. I mean, Imagine having the worse financial year of your life along with the one year were you visited more countries and more cities than ever. It almost doesn't compute, right?
Anyways, I'm preparing mentally for this trip in more ways than one. For starters, I'm a creature of the heat, I do not like the cold and you could say I don't operate well under any temperatures under 65 degrees. So, I'm sure I will be needing a constant supply of hot cocoa or something, along with the very few warm things I own, which is literally two or three items.
Another focus of mine is going to be to video things here and there. I won't focus so much on recording that I would miss out on what's happening, which funnily enough seems to be some sort of rule, but I would love to be able to score some key videos, maybe even do a short interview just for fun.
I'm taking a laptop, but I'm not sure about doing any shows this week, and will probably setup a replay for Wednesday since I'm probably going to be close to dead from the flight. As you might imagine, crossing the pond takes a while and the layover is extended, a cost thing of course.
But, I'm excited, I'm super pumped to meet everyone. To add some faces to the avatars will be a bit surreal for me, but something I'm looking forward to.
I have a gut feeling by the way, that after we come back from Steemfest things are really going to turn around. Why? Because sentiment drives markets, and after spending that time together, laughing and dreaming about this future we are trying to build together, I fully expect the positivism to take hold of everyone and thus see it reflected on the platforms that run on STEEM, this in turn would snowball into something great for everyone... Yes! call me crazy, but that is how mass psychology seems to work just about everywhere.
At any rate, I hope to share a drink with hundreds of you, they will sure have to be tiny sips to avoid intoxication, but yes...
Cheers my friends, see you soon
Safe travels MenO. Have a good time and stay warm. I also dislike cold so that rang true with me!
Last year while SteemFest was going on, we were all watching Bitcoin Hardforks. This year maybe there will not be so many distractions.

Another creature of the heat. I'm always freezing off my .. fingers in the winter, since my wonderful partner prefers it colder. But.. tea is helping!

Will be great to meet you @meno, I don't envy that flight of yours. Have you done a LD trip heading east across the world before?
It really screws me up, though going west is fine (my experiences.).
I hope your gut is right, we could do with some uptake.

Have a good travel @meno, I'm sure your voice and amazing ideas will be hear it for minnows, dolphins and whales in Poland. I will love see those vlogs and feel the positivism in the air.

Safe travels man and enjoy the steemfest, I want to go but sadly can't make the trip due to financial reasons. But man people people cease to exist when the temperature exceeds 50 degrees so you must be very heat resilient 😂.
Kinda like Daenerys Stormborn of the House Targaryen, First of Her Name, the Unburnt, Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Breaker of Chains, and Mother of Dragons.
Just Meno of House Steemit.

I cannot bring clothes. Pris took all our suitcase space LOL. I hope it is not too cold :)
And my hand baggage will be just laptop, camera, batteries, audio interface, MIDI controller, audio recorder... You know the kind of stuff. Weather predictions seem nice so I am bullish ;)

You deserve it all. I can't tell you how happy it makes me that you're going, Meno. Of all the people on this platform that I have come to know and become aquainted with, you are one of the ones who I most wanted to see go ...just because of how passionate you are about this community , you put your whole heart into it. You inspire people on an enormously huge level, you have hugely inspired me.
I know you're going to have the best time ever. :) Big hugs! One day hopefully we can meet, too! <3
