Hi Friends!
I'm a little late in posting this first edition of #roadtosteemfest... but what the hell - I'm not much of a rule follower anyway. 😉 From what I gather from 
What better way to create buzz, bring back some old memories and stir up some good old FOMO than with a ton of photos from last year's event?
Before scrolling down to the many photos and selfies pictured below - here's a little snapshot of what my Steemfest experience was like.
Steemfest 3 - The Cliff Notes Version
Steem is such a massive part of my life and so there was no question of whether or not I would attend Steemfest 3. I had already attended several crypto conferences with other Steem attendees in Vegas and Toronto - and saw the amazing connections and camaraderie that occurred when meeting up in person.
I was super nervous to travel because it would be my first time going solo and my first time in Europe - but so many steemians offered tips and advice that put my nerves at ease. 
On a side note... Since flying to Bangkok is going to be a looooong ass flight - If anyone wants to meetup in Bellingham and fly with me outta Vancouver - I'd be down. Let's get an entourage going.
Okay... back to last year.
Probably the best decision I made that entire trip was to get into town a few days early. It gave me a chance to settle in, get to know the surrounding area, explore and get a little rest before the craziness begins. When I say craziness... i mean it. You will get no sleep and will have the time of your life... but having a few days to recover from the full day or two of travel is totally worth it. It also gave me a chance to really explore the city because you don't have a lot of spare time during the event. Another benefit of getting into town early is that as people start to trickle in - you can meetup with them and have some more intimate gatherings before you are with hundreds of people altogether.
I won't go into all the nitty, gritty details of each conference day and nighttime outting - but I do want to say one thing.
You will have the time of your life.
I've been to a lot of events, and have never seen such care, precision, planning and excitement built into an event. I have no idea what
