From Wednesday to Friday I was in Ronneby, the so-called "heart of the garden of Sweden" and a town Blekinge in South East of Sweden, and attended the SIDeR 07 conference. I had a fantastic time there. Not only that the other participants seemed to have liked my presentation but also it was great to get to know all those gorgeous and interesting people like Willem, Johannes, Sebastian, Jokke, Fredrik and Morten.


Willem and Sebastian (funny and clever guys from Holland and Germany who study in Denmark)


Johannes (the Norwegian studying in Holland who had the best presentation)

We had a good party time after the delicious conference dinner (which made me forget about the vegetarian disappointment at lunch time). In fact, it was party (#2) at the student pub (with ceap beer, a little bit of pool and dancing) and 2 afterparties (one at a student corridor where we were introduced to the Ronneby drinking culture ... Donk! ... and a small one in my room where Willem, Fredrik and I listened to a bit German music).

Well, don't think i went there only for partying. Because that's not the case at all! It was a pleasure to listen to some very good leactures and the others' presentation and getting a hell lot of new ideas and perspectives. I guess I also learned a lot abot the field of interaction design itself. The first time in my life I have the feeling that I found something that could be the perfect study program for me as it is the perfect combinition of knowledge and creativity. Just a pity that I got to know it so late.
Too late I'm afraid :(
But thinking of my new friends I think I'll survive :)
