"...and you came all the way to Germany for this?!"
The continuing conversation would reveal: of course not. Flying from Paris to Berlin was quick and easy; what wasn't was doing so after a long school day and working on assignments in between sessions. It was so worth it though. I've been to niche, mostly American blog conferences in the past (fitness, healthy living, fitness) but I found it extra stimulating to be in the company of bloggers from various countries with a wide range of passions. I was one of a very small handful representing the States. By the way, I hope you had a lovely Memorial Day weekend. It was odd not to be celebrating.
