Glad you enjoyed it!

I definitely recommend it. It was a short journey, but a very unique experience.

I think so too!

Thank you! Don't know if you remember me, but I remember you from the Wichita DevICT! I still pop in from time to time. Hope you are well. :)

Oh, absolutely :) I try to keep up on Slack, but I need to get back to going to the in-person events again. It’d be cool to reconnect there sometime!

Thank you and always a pleasure to see you! :)

Thank you. I hope so too!

Glad you enjoyed it! Anyone can attend PyCon US. There are people from all walks of life and skill levels. If cost is an issue, PyCon US has a generous financial aid program. A caveat: some prospective attendees in other countries have difficulty getting visas.

It was great to meet you too! Thank you for the kind words. :)

You shouldn't feel that way at all. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience meeting people at a conference. It has actually been the opposite. Many people are there to make connections (and have their own doubts as well). You might be surprised at how receptive they will be. Also, many conferences actively promote inclusion. See the "Pac Man Rule" attributed to Eric Holscher which was referenced at PyCon US. https://www.ericholscher.com/blog/2017/aug/2/pacman-rule-con...

That's a lovely idea - thank you for sharing!

I am so excited that I had the chance to meet you! I am planning to be at Pittsburgh next year as well. Looking forward to it!
