Couldn't sleep any longer... (5 AM) Today I am heading to Kraków! Still so many little things rumbling the mind. I am currently in Harlingen, city of SteemWhale.io, to "drop off" my girlfriend, our son and baby girl, as mainly she is too young (4 weeks) to make the trip.
On a side note.. Unfortunately we had to go to the hospital with her, as she got fever and too young to get that. But all seems ok now, and I will visit in a couple of hours again (my GF stayed, as I went for our little boy at his grandparents). Gf and daughter will most probably be going home after a monitoring night in the hospital. Far from ideal, but when I left the hospital last night babygirl was already going very well and fever had dropped significantly and she was vivid enough again to feed herself directly from gf.
So, now Kraków! Flying out in the afternoon and meeting with @poezio, one of my best friends with whom I've gone to college (Hotelschool) and we worked together at the festival TodaysArt back in the days. He also joined us last year in Lisbon and calls himself "personal chef of the head honcho" :) We have to run some errants over the weekend and prep some of the decorations and do some last minute visits to some locations to talk things through.
SteemFest Side Events:
SteemFest's program is boasting with activities this year, the weekend is also quite filled with planned visits, but still some fellow attendees managed to squeeze in some so-called "side-events" which mainly happen on the saturday night 10 november. This is also a great change for those not having a ticket but in Kraków to meet fellow steemians at one of these events.- eSteem Meetup: 17:00 - HEVRE (Art at SteemFest venue)
- #BeerSaturday: @detlev organises a tour across town dedicated to beer. Start: 21:00 at Alchemia in Kazimierz
- SteemFest Karaoke: @coruscate, @anomadsoul and @steemcafe want you to sing. No not that BUIDL song, but some 90's hits! Starts 22:30 at Coyote Bar in Old Town
- @CleanPlanet citywalk: Sunday morning 11:00, departure at Qubus Hotel.
- Photowalk(s) with @jarvie - "Finding beauty everywhere" - TBA (see SteemFest mobile app)
Round Tables Overview
Call for Round Tables is now closed and quite some sessions will be hosted by an array of attendees. Round Table sessions enable you to submerge yourself and a select group of fellow attendees for about 50 minutes into a mini lecture or debate club with the host around a certain topic. Most of these will happen during SteemFest conference day 2 in the ICE Kraków during 4 dedicated slots in which a couple of sessions happen simultaneously.The SteemFest mobile app will soon contain the details when which one happens, so keep an eye on that (times are already listed, but which session, when, not yet).

Oh yes. @starkerz and @oracle-d in debate club! Talking about bringing businesses to blockchain. Well they are going to make a National Blockchain Technology Institute in Indonesia very soon!
Brace yourselves Steem, Future Devs are coming. ;)
I hope we get to see the livestream of everything just like last times!!!
Hey @hungrypb, beyond livestreaming, I think like every other formal conference, Proceedings on @Steemfest should be published in a portable format that can be transferred to all steem users so we do not miss out of everything. Ie, PDF or other compatible text formats of lecture can be published and shared by a dedicated account. I hope @ned @oracle-d and team @roelandp with his team gets to see this though its coming pretty late
Krakow, here comes the steemians!
It's amazing that we are already at STEEMFEST3! Has it already been that long. So great to reflect back and see what a great idea you had so early in steemit history, and that it is still going strong. Thanks @roelandp!
Amazing to read that you will also join :)
I still owe you a coffee :-) It will have to be next time. Can't make it this year. :-(
Oh nooooo please come !!!! I was so busy last months and not much online but what pleasure to read your message. You might have to visit me in Vienna for coffee 😘😘😘
Vienna I can do at some point. My daughter is here from Dubai with the kids so my attention is in high demand lol
Have a great steemfest3 I will enjoy it vicariously through you. ;-)
It’s so nice to see your message and yes I will be at steemfest again for the third time. I was not very active because I had lots of offline community work to do. I also needed a little break after writing over 400 articles past 2 years 🙈 can’t wait to meet you soon! My pleasure to support as much as I can.
Hahha oh well...a mini pro :)
Can’t wait to meet you!
You will have a blast

Just got a chance to look at the program on the SteemFest App. Its looking awesome!
Better finish creating my presentation on Life after Google!
I highly recommend you guys seek out @derangedvisions and talk about dStors ! He's going to drop the 💣. Soon, steemians will come together to participate in global trade of goods and services and find even more utility for their steem earnings! wish I could go.
Sorry to hear about the little one @roelandp but seems recovery is on its way. Also I wanted to ask if anybody or @roelandp knows.. do cabs outside the airport take card? And whats the average ride cost getting to the main Steemfest hotel?
So excited to join for the 3rd time!
Even more happy to present the @globalschool project together with @gexi @manncpt @yumleadership @jnmarteu ( founder ) who supports together with our student via Vienna

It's looking pretty good @roelandp... Such a diverse lineup of people speaking... Or... round-tabling.
Karaoke, ha ha time to break it the old classics and give people a performance they'll never forget, or wish they'd never heard ;-)
Thanks for all your hard with roeland. SF3 is looking awesome :)
Glad to know your baby girl is doing better. Hope you only get good news from today regarding her.
Can't wait for this event!
So many things to do, so many people to meet. I'm already lost and haven't even got there yet!
Take care @roelandp

Awesome! I can't wait. I am excited to share the dStors project with everyone. I am going to be making up an announcement post very soon and lay out the details on the project so that people can engage with me at Steemfest during the roundtable. Steemfest is going to be an epic event. Only a few more days!
Hey, @roelandp.
Thanks for the update about Steemfest3. It sounds like there will be all kinds of things to be a part of for everyone who goes.
Also, I'm glad to hear that your baby daughter is feeling better. Having a fever is not fun for anyone, especially one so young. I hope she continues to improve.
Be safe. Be well. Enjoy.
This is really great. We'll start building a social network for social impact on steem next year. Looking forward to meet al these bright people at Kraków.
http://impactn.global
Oh my, this is getting so exciting! :D So sorry to hear your little one wasn't feeling well, though.
See you in Krakow!!
Have a good trip and enjoy the event. One day, I may make it to one.
Time to start packing... [though of course I won’t, until 2 hours before... 🙄😆]
Hope you’re little girl will be up and running again in no time! Not the best timing for papa having to leave! 🙏🏻
Oh good you are a verry funny man. I will meet you this place but no away.. if allah want i will meet you any place.. thanks for you....
Once a year big event for all Steemians!
I'm super excited to come to my first Steemfest. This time last year I'd never even heard of Steem. Can't wait to meet so many amazing creators all in one place!
A speedy recovery for your little one. @roelandp
Have a great SteemFest.
Sorry to hear about your daughter not being well but good to hear that she is on the mend.
I'm also sorry that I'm not going to be there this year due to commitments here in the UK.
Steemfest 2 was an absolute blast and I know you guys and gals are going to rock Krakow.
I'll be watching the live feeds hopefully. Have a great festival @roelandp
Looks like it's gonna be fruitful for you @roelandp..
Will there be any sessions live-streamed?
Cannot believe it is almost here!!!
Going to be such a blast! I can't wait to meet so many steemians and make some great friends!
This is amazing, hope to be in the next steemfest and experience all of these and more.
BOAH! So much to do in such a short period of time! Where to start
(I do feel that on Saturday the karaoke night of @anomadsoul and @coruscate should be combined with the beersaturday pubcrawl with team @detlev honestly :D)
Good look in this busy week for you @roelandp with everything that is going on in krakow AND most importantly at home
Hi, Roeland, I booked a ticket, plane and ticket to Steemfest, but I just found out that the hotel that I booked didn't get my confirmation, because their email got into my spam account. I tried to contact them, but no answer, is there any chance you could ask them to accept my reservation? Thanks a lot. @roelandp @poezio
see my reply to your emails. sorry i was busy out preparing so no instant response.
@roeland I have an idea if you can help me to make this in reality, I want to know how have you done the whale fountain because I am thinking of doing it for feeding my dog for a trial first and later make some for feeding the street children in the philippines. If you can share some knowledge that would be great help, this is my email [email protected]
Glad your little girl is doing better. That would have been added stress. See ya soon brother!!! I’m packing up as I type this.
