Hello everyone! As all my readers know, we have come a long way to attend the upcoming Hivefest. And after our trip, several days have already passed, that is, it would be good to tell about Hivefest itself! So, after our visit to Plitvice Lakes, we immediately set off on our way to Split. We had a great time here, but we were tired after a few hours of walking. But this trip was still great because almost the whole way we drove behind a red Tesla belonging to @gtg. Driving this way, it was not so tiring and boring for us. Later, already closer to Split, since we were going to different addresses, we had to split up. And having arrived at our apartment, which we rented a week before, we went to bed already before waiting for our tomorrow evening. Let me tell you a little bit about my relationship with Hivefest. I've been at Hive for 4 years now (compared to the 8 years of my sister @bugavi and mom @olga.maslievich it's nothing) and until now, I've never been to Hivefest. Unlike @bugavi and @olga.maslievich who were already in 2018 in Krakow. And I was very happy to finally attend this exciting event. Therefore, we sat down and at dinner we went to the first meeting with the community.
The first dating evening took place at the Paradiso bar. It is 9 km from our house to the center of Split, but it is not so long by car. Parking wasn't great, and we barely found one free spot. Five minutes of walking and we are here! Hivefest welcomed us with name tags under our usernames and bags with many different cool things like a brooch with the Hive logo, key chains, stickers and even candy. This is so cute ☺️.
Our Dumbledore @gtg greeted us at the entrance and @starkerz was standing next to him (unfortunately I don't have a picture of @starkerz from that night). It was very nice to meet this person, especially after he said he knew me (I was so surprised that someone knew me). After greeting these boys, we went to meet other people.
Also standing at the entrance was @roelandp. To be honest, it was quite scary to approach this unapproachable and cold man, but after getting to know him, he no longer seemed like that at all. It was a lot of fun talking and spending time with him.
Right after that we met Malaysian boy named @techcoderx. It was nice to meet you.
Sitting at the bar and checking out the people around us, we saw Captain Black Sparrow @growandbow. Honestly, when I came to Hivefest I expected to meet anyone but this pirate. He came all the way from the Caribbean, on his ship. All hands on deck! After taking a picture with this celebrity, I moved on.
I also got to meet @honeydue, an old friend of my sister and mom.
And here's a @iamlosi, an amazing singer, who was going to sing on the second day evening.
After that I met a very nice man named @vcelier. The first day he seemed serious to me, but the next day he was in a great mood.
Next I was able to take a photo with @blocktrades. This is a famous whale, and I always wanted to see it in reality. I was very glad to meet this cheerful man.
Also here I found photographers, @louis88 and @rivalzzz. To be honest, at first I thought there was only one person here, and you would know my surprise when I saw these two identical people together 😃.
I was also happy to meet @cryptospa, who later became my mother's friend.
And i was really happy to meet our dear friend @evelynchacin again 🫂
I was also happy to see @hallmann again, after our first meeting at Kingdom Without Limits. And I was also very happy to meet his wife @foggymeadow, because she was not in Krakow at that time.
Also, I was glad to meet one witness named @engrave
I also got to take a photo with this friendly girl named @tinabrezpike
And here's @jeffjagoe, the person which I associate with Malkoçoğlu, Bali Bey, a character from magnificent century.
And of course @arcange, the elusive biker we caught 😆.
Bye bye everyone, and wait for my day 1 post. 🌆🌃
It was great to see you again! You guys are so beautiful.
Thanks to this post I find out that she is Hallmann's wife, I never met her.
I hope to see you again soon ❤️ you guys are great!

Thank you @darine.darine for the lovely post and sharing your experience from HiveFest! You consider that your are ONLY 4 years at Hive and its nothing but as newcomer, I can say – ‘WOW, She is Hiver for 4 years already!’. It is second post about Hive Fest that I read and I realise that THIS IS THE EVENT! Hope that I will be able to attend it in future, meanwhile I’m looking for more posts from you covering HiveFest and not only :)
Hahah, you know, I can say that I'm a newcomer, cos I missed like the whole begining, all the main events that happened back then. And you know, like, comparing to 8 years of my mother's and sisters existence on hive, it's a quiet small experience, but yeah, for someone it not just four years, it's FOUR freaking YEARS! Sometimes when I realise the amount of time I've been on hive I really think like that. But thank you, your comment gave me some kind of inspirement listening to your opinion about that all. For me it was such a breathtaking and awesome happening, to be here for the first time of my life. I wish you to be on the next Hivefest, and feel the atmosphere of the Hivefest yourself.
thanks for your kind and supportive words! I wonder, what would you tell now to yourself 4 years ago when you just started HIVE-ing , what are key factor to succeed here? On in other words - what would you like to know back than that you know now after 4 years of experience here? Please share, would love to hear your thoughts and recommendations! I’m trying to navigate in this new and fascinating but still complicated world :)
