So, last time I told you about how I got to Krakow together with @mammasitta, @manncpt, @gexi and @yinundmann on a roadtrip.

After I wrote that post we went straight to the Qubus hotel to have welcome drinks with some other steemians. I don't know if all of you know but there is a steemfest 3 Krakow App, where you actually can see all the activities, speeches and so on scheduled and see what we are up to at this moment.

Of course I directly had to say hi to @luzcypher first, because I mean he brought me to steemit and we became very good friends back in Mexico. I haven`t seen him in a while and was really happy to meet him right away.

He presented me to @world-travel-pro , which until then I just know over the platform.

So I did the Check In, got my name card and some giveaways from the stuff like a steemit bag, a t-shirt, a scarf, a @steemmonsters pack etc.

After that it got pretty crazy! It was so crowded! Many people I recognized or they recognized me so it was really cool to meet them in real person! We had the task to scan each others name via the App, which is really fun and makes you meet people super easily. Its a contest. The more people you scan the more you win in the end of the contest from a pot of 2300 and something steem :D - Right now I am 13th in the ranking haha

Of course: my old friend @anomadsoul and many others.

Time was just flying sooo fast while talking to the others, exchanging stories and experiences and getting to know each other. - I am sorry I didn't take more pics.

After staying at the Hotel a bunch of people still wanted to go out, so we headed to a local bar close by and kept on talking and drinking and talking and just having fun.

The next day I was pretty tired and hangover cause it got really late the night before. We got an email from @roelandp in the morning with the plan of the day and 2 more Tasks:

Nr.1 uploading a selfie to the App showing our steemit name card, so people could recognize us better.

Nr. 2 sign up for Bowling at night with a Team of 4. I signed up as the team leader of my team: Steemfamily including @manncpt @luzcypher @mammasitta @gexi @martibis and @world-travel-pro.

So after doing those tasks I went downstairs to have some breakfast at the hotel and then I went straight to the main stage for the opening event. @rivalzzz had brought me a steemit had as present, which came really handy with this weather. Thanks again man! I love this hat.

Arriving to the event @roelandp welcomed us warmly to steemfest 3 in his flame suit followed by a short interview with @ned.

After that a few other speakers where up on 2 different stages and you could choose which one you wanted to join.

Of course I didn't wanna miss the one from @globalschool , that @manncpt @gexi and @mammasitta where presenting.

I am really flashed about all the cool projects going on here at steemit and their future plan! Its really awesome!

At some point we got a lunch buffet and went eating outside enjoying the sun for a little bit. That was when I first met @steembirds & @coruscate. @luzcypher asked @steembirds something about there guitar and all of the sudden they where playing some music together and we started to sing to it. I love this unplanned cool things where spontaneously something like that happens and we all have fun together. In less then 5 minutes we had our audience and more and more people were joining in, singing or even bringing their own instruments. - Really cool!!

@daveonarrival gave me another video of about 30 minutes later haha. Thanks man!

In the afternoon I went watching a few other presentations like the one from @martibis about @steemitworldmap

And then I went having second lunch with him and @luzcypher just around the corner at some food truck. - That helped me a lot actually cause I was still a bit hangover. - So thanks for saving my life there guys ;)

Then we still had to play some of the other 48 teams.

We got kicked out of the tournament really quick haha but we still were passionate and had a lot of fun!! - I am still proud to say that the german team won in the finals ;) thanks for the pic @louis88

I used the time to challenge @surfermarly and @gexi at the pool table ;) - Great game by the way.

45728286_2082905005105312_4892986572221186048_n.jpg

Around 1:30 am we went back to the hotel with buses and I went straight to bed!! - Others where still partying until 6am this morning hahha

Let's see how it will be tonight! - I hope you got a better image about whats going on here now. @josediccus was asking me to share some more details about the event, so I try. It is really busy here and we hardly get time for ourselves, or for doing posts so I will go on trying my best man ;) You hang in there, next year you also will attend, you'll see! I believe @dtube also did a little video for all of you out there that sadly couldn't make it to steemfest. We miss you guys and we think of you!

Let me know if you have some more questions :)

Cheers,
Liz

So cool, looks like a great time meeting great people.

Yes it really is :)

It was nice to finally meet you in person! Indeed: great pool game - gotta repeat that at the next Steemfest :-)

Yes it was. I was missing you at the poker table! Could have needed some feminin support there ;) Yeah sure I'm always up for Billard.

I would've loved to play but had to fly home yesterday's morning...:-(
Also I lost my voice so wouldn't have been that communicative anyways, haha

You really did miss out! Next year then ;) We all have voice problems after 4 days haha. Enjoy the warm weather!

Wow I don't even know where to start from, so many people here in steemfest I don't even know where to start adressing from, wow this is totally splendid, I think your blog post is the only one that's brought so many exclusives from steemfest, wow I really wonder how you pulled off these amazing posts despite being so busy really, wow I'm sure you must be really exhausted Liz,
Well I do hope to attend next year, this is totally amazing, the fun is crazy

Hey man! Yes I hope I could give you some inside even though I didnt have time for an interview yet! I skipped dinner to find the time for this post ;) Totally exhausted now, going to sleep haha. Im glad you are happy! Steem on man.

steemfests are always so positive and empowering. you'll be buzzing for months after this! ;)

Yes they are!! I never slept that less and had so much energy at the same time :D It was so great!

yeah it's a re-up on the fact that people want to effect positive change within their own lives i find, everyone is doing their bit in there own way ya know? glad you got the flow, when it's easy to be around people that are so full of light it's easy to stay awake! :)

Yes it definitely is!! Im so looking forward to our next little meetup tomorrow and later on in Thailand. It will be a blast!

Hi Liz, great mood and fantastic pictures! See you on Wednesday in Munich at the meetup. I am happy to see you again!

Looking forward to the meet up!
