DAMN! Why don't 'we' let you fly to Amsterdam? I think driving and train is easy, you can even fly to Brussels or Paris and take a train to Amsterdam, or somewhere in Germany. But I personally love train travel so if doable I would always try that myself :-)
I hope you'll make it! Would be fun to meet :-)
RE: Are you preparing for HiveFest in Amsterdam? What are your challenges or thoughts about joining this year?
