After being on Hive since March 2018, I've always wanted to go to a Hive Fest. I followed the online versions, but I never really went physically to one so far. My timetable is quite full with my offline job and the activities of my kids, so that there was always something in the way so far. Therefore, I'm even happier that I've managed to free some time to go to Split this year. I'll be attending from 10th to 12th of September. Unfortunately, work obligations won't allow me to stay longer.
My ticket is bought, my flight and my hotel room are booked and if everything goes according to plan, I will be able to join the opening drinks in Paradiso Bar on 10th of September. I will probably be a bit late but I will try to make it.
Excited but also slightly nervous
I'm not an utterly shy person but I'm not very outgoing either and even though I probably exchanged some words with many people who will attend, it's still something else to meet them in real life. In Split, I will represent the Liotes project with @ph1102. We have started Liotes in March 2021 and we talk together on a very regular basis over discord and hive. However, we have never met in real life so far. So I'm really looking forward to that. @ph1102 has attended Hive Fest in Amsterdam and he also met several people on other occasions, so I hope that I can rely on him to introduce me to some people and that I won't be lost in a corner all by myself lol.
I'm quite nervous for the presentation that we are going to give about Liotes. We are working on it but it's going to be stressful to present it in front of an audience.
Hive is my online home
My wife will attest that I spend way too much time on hive and she is not totally wrong about it. I found a lot of things on hive that I enjoy. It allows me to interact with people as much as I want. Thanks to hive, I could give birth to many ideas and projects that I always wanted to create. It's an outlet for my creativity and I really enjoy it.
I expect that being able to attend hive fest in Split and meeting many hivians in real life, will change my future hive experiences and I also believe that in such places ideas can be exchanged that can allow hive to evolve and become even better. I'm looking forward to see if things will turn out that way.

No need to be nervous, you'll have a blast! Besides, Split is awesome too. Have fun! !BEER
It's the first time I will travel to Croatia. Looking forward to discovering Split :-)
You'll love it! Too bad you're short on time, Dubrovnik also deserves a visit!
Totally agree that Hive is my online home too! Haha! All the best for Hive Fest, looking forward to updates!
!LUV
I will try to keep you guys up to date ;-)
@achim03, @relf87(5/5) sent you LUV. | tools | discord | community | HiveWiki | <>< daily
Happy you're attending!!!!
I hope it's going to be great fun :-)
Viel Spaß und mach uns bitte ein paar schöne Videos.
Danke. Werde versuchen das ganze Abenteuer zu dokumentieren ;-)
haha well depends of what you call 'too much time' on hive for the misses ;)
Better to go for the real life option then. You will have a blast and make the experience even better on it. 2018 starters for the win!
I'm looking forward to seeing what hive looks like in real life lol.
Don't worry! You'll be fine! In Hive there are amazing people who make you feel at home, I tell you that I felt great even when my English is so bad 🤣.
I'm happy to hear that :-). Hope it will be the same for me.
This is still on my bucket list as well. It's hard to get to Europe from the US when the markets are all down. Hopefully one of these years HIVE will be in dollars instead of cents and I'll be able to use some of it to fund the trip. Have fun! I've always wanted to see Croatia and King's Landing. 🙂
It will be my first time in Croatia. So I'm looking forward. It's great that I can reach it with a less than two hour flight. I would probably not go if took me somewhere around the globe :-)
I've always wondered. Are all attendees "famous" personalities on HIVE? I wouldn't mind attending if it ever pops into my country (or thereabouts) but I don't really talk much nor do I actually know that many people here! 🤣
I don't really think that everybody will be famous there. Whatever that is on hive 🤣. I will tell you when I'm back whether it's suitable for people like me who don't know many people and are not exceptionally sociable lol
I didn't know you and Zoltan never met. Enjoy Hivefest! Don't drink too much, lol.
It's going to be a first. I'm not too into drinking so there isn't much danger in this direction :-)
Thanks for the mention! Don't worry, you will do fine! 😃
I remember the HiveFest in Amsterdam... It was scary as I didn't know anyone... But, in the end, I had a blast! Met some great people, and some of them I met again in the last 2 years!
Yea man, I'm counting on you to make it easy for me ;-)
Exciting times. I think you will have a great time!
It's going to be interesting and hopefully even fun :-)
I hope you have fun at hivefest even if it's not the entire time there. Work does keep us busy and I agree that I probably spend too much time on Hive. I usually do it late at night so my sleep gets delayed.
Well we have to bring some sacrifices to be on hive lol.
