Er netop hjemvendt efter to ugers fantastisk ferie, og sidder jeg nu og surfer på nettet. To uger offline giver webstinenser. Dagens projekt er at finde tech- konferencer, for inden for det næste halve år skal jeg ud lære lidt nyt. Faktisk er jeg tvunget til det, for har en uddannelseskonto på arbejdet som skal bruges – hvem sagde priviligeret! Jeg leder efter konferencer der passer min fagprofil, som er uden for EU og som ligger efterår/vinter. Måske kan jeg ikke få alle ønsker opfyldt, men nu må vi se. Jeg har prøvet at indkredse hvilke konferencer der ligger det næste halve år ude i fremtiden – men har HELT sikkert ikke alle med. Så kender du nogen jeg ikke har på listen, så smid en kommentar. Og skriv også meget gerne til hvis du har personlige erfaringer du vil dele. Jeg er lidt på bar grund her, så al hjælp bliver taget i mod med kyshånd!
