The last days at where awesome! Here you can see my #hivefest experience report.
After arriving in Amsterdam and me went to Damrak to get some dutch fries.
Then we checked out the center a bit and found my favourite green tea house. ;)
From there we walked back to the main station taking the metro to the Volkshotel.
The Volkshotel was a good place to stay. I liked the music downstairs... and the interior design. On Friday there was a big party going on there.
This was the view from my room in the morning.
It was very nice to see a lot of familiar faces and meet new hivians at the opening drinks. Here you can see some of the selfies I took.
Near the hotel was also a nice area to explore. I love the city views of Amsterdam. It always feels like to be in a movie scene.
On Friday I had a talk on the first conference day. The location was incredible unique and special. Thank you for the slot. You can check it on youtube. Here are some pics before and after. ;)
There was also a presentation of NFT's for peace with and
. It was the most important issue on that day! Please follow, vote and help this project in collaboration with
to bring peace and love to the Ukrainian hive communities.
presented also a little insight into the planned movie freechain, I am already looking forward to this one!
If you are interested in the other presentations of #hivefest DAY 1 just watch the livestream. It was all documented well.
After the talks was a boat tour to the center and we played a boccia tournament in a pub. It was a lot of fun!
On the second conference day we met in a church in the center. It was also a unique location. In the middle of the day we let the bell ring songs you could vote.
We networked outside inside, listened to the talks and ate good as well as healthy food.
deserves your support for peace in Ukraine!
At night there was then the #beersaturday and poker tournament planned. I went to the last and luckily won... my first #hivefest tournament ever. I will not play again , don't worry! :D
It was a four hour psycho fight. I was wearing sun glasses all day long to irritate them. It worked I guess...
Went to Bulldog with
after poker through the city center.
On Sunday we chilled all and did some DIY city tours. I walked to the shopping center, the Amstel Hotel and had Gouda as well as Amstel beer next to the main river.
After my little exploration I went back to the hotel said goodbye to all I saw. Unfortunately I couldn't participate to the closing dinner then, because I had to catch the night train to see my students on Monday again. So I had to be back in Vienna to start the working week with enough time to switch focus.
While I am writing this post is here with me at Edison working while the interns collaborate on our other projects:
, graphics and websites we are creating with the talent management agency.
Thank you for all your attention and support here, I am really appreciating to be part of the global hive community with you all! See you at the next #HiveMeetupVienna 6.10 or at another city #meetup near Austria.
All the best,
Christoph
