TBEX Europe in Copenhagen

Me welcoming attendees to TBEX Europe in Copenhagen, Denmark. // photo by Johnny JetI'm just back to the States from Copenhagen, Denmark where we had the first-ever TBEX Europe conference of travel bloggers and writers. Now back at my computer to see what all the tweeting and blogging attendees thought of the meeting, I also found that the cool folks over at Wonderful Copenhagen and Momondo (our presenting sponsors) put together a fun little video overview of what the meeting was like...

Hamlet (Paul Brady), Rosencrantz (Robert Reid) and Ophelia (Kim Mance) dramatize the issues bloggers face when dealing with SEO. // photo by Johnny Jet I'm glad they captured a bit of the atmosphere of the meeting venue, which I fell in love with during an early site visit and realized there was no other place to have TBEX Europe than at the quirky, colorful, and historic Cirkus building. It lent itself to creativity and fun, and even a Shakespearian skit about SEO, written and performed by me, Robert Reid from Lonely Planet (also featured in the video above), and Paul Brady from Condé Nast Traveler magazine.

There are so many other highlights, I won't try and capture them all in one post and place, but I should say that National Geographic's digital nomad Andrew Evans gave a Saturday afternoon talk that was so helpful and inspiring I gave him a hug on stage before moving on with the program. It even sparked many of the attendees that very same night to tell a story, even though the subject was bar hopping. And that makes all the planning and logistics worth it to me.
