Dutch Hive Meetup was a Success

⚙️Organizing the Meetup

We had always intended to organize the 2nd Meetup, but due to the demands of our personal lives, it had slipped our minds. Fortunately, the initiative of Hive account@tibfox and his project Hive account@hive-eu served as a wake-up call, motivating us to prioritize the organization of the meetup.

🚃Getting to Breda

Initially, our plan was to hold the meetup in Utrecht, but we realized that it would be inconvenient for some of us due to the distance. Consequently, we decided that Breda would be a more central location for everyone involved. Most of us opted to travel by car, resulting in an approximately one-hour drive. However, Hive account@minigunner and Hive account@artakush faced a longer journey of 2.5 hours by train, which was further complicated by overcrowded conditions, adding a touch of amusement to their trip. 😒

📌The Meetup

As soon as we rolled into town, we bumped into the one and only Hive account@cooperclub and his son. And guess what? Hold onto your seats, folks—Hive account@cooperclub was driving a Mini Cooper! Talk about a match made in automotive heaven, right? 😁 He graciously chauffeured us to the buzzing heart of Breda, the "Binnenstad," where we rendezvoused with the rest of the gang: Hive account@loonatic, Hive account@edb, and Hive account@stresskiller.

Now, let me take a moment to give a shout-out to our buddy Hive account@stresskiller. Stepping out of his comfort zone, kicking anxiety in the butt, and joining us—it was an absolute honor to finally meet him. We're beaming with pride, my friend! And hey, don't worry, Hive account@stresskiller, we won't make you conquer the stage in front of a thousand people next time... or maybe we will, just kidding! 😁

Now, let's spill the beans on the meetup itself. It was pure awesomeness! We laughed, we chatted, and we dove headfirst into sharing our Hive experiences. Of course, we couldn't resist discussing the fascinating world of AI and its impact, both positive and negative, on our beloved Hive. But you know what? The weather was absolutely stunning, and the vibes were off the charts, so we ended up drifting into all sorts of captivating conversations.

Of course, a meetup isn't complete without drinks and delicious food. We indulged like there was no tomorrow! After a few glorious hours, it was time to bid farewell and head home. Poor Hive account@minigunner and Hive account@artakush had another epic 2.5-hour journey back to The Hague. Talk about dedication, folks! 😂Can't wait for the next adventure!

📅See you next time

Hey there, you awesome bunch! We're overjoyed that you're all here, taking time out of your super busy schedules to hang out with us. We're hoping these meetups will pull in more Dutchies to join the party, so we can make things official and rock Hive like never before!

Guess what? It's time for Dutch Hive Meet Part 3, happening in August. Get ready for an all-day extravaganza, where we'll dive into some seriously cool stuff happening on Hive. We'll brainstorm like crazy, discussing how to supercharge our community and spread the word to the world. Let's make some noise and bring Hive to the masses, my friends!

Hold up, hold up! We can't forget to give a massive shout-out to: Hive account@hiveio, Hive account@guiltyparties, and Hive account@tibfox! They hooked us up with some seriously cool merch, and let me tell you, it was a showstopper! Brace yourselves for this one, folks—people on the train were literally Googling what the heck "Hive" was! Yup, you heard it right. The merch had them scratching their heads, chatting away, and sparking curiosity like wildfire. Mission accomplished, my friends! The verdict is in: the merch is pure magic. Thank you from the bottom of our buzzing hearts! 😁

❤️Thank you everyone
