Since I started working for MSF and quit being a “Digital Nomad,” my involvement with the WordPress Community and my opportunities to travel Meetups and WordCamps are quite less. But sometimes, work can turn out to be a chance to attend Meetups: thanks to a trip to the MSF headquarters of Switzerland, I had the […]
Organizing a WordCamp in four months is it possible? Ask the organizers of WordCamp Marseille. Not only they set up their first WordCamp in a record time (and with summer vacation in the middle) but they did perfectly! It’s during WordCamp Europe, in Paris, that I heard about the upcoming WordCamp Marseille. The first WordCamp […]
As far as I know the only WordPress “Female” Meetup that exists is in Berlin and has started only a few months ago. I attended one in July without really thinking about the meaning of the word “Female” in the title. To me it was just another Meetup, like many I have attended this year […]
I think I was born a “nomad.” I have always liked to explore new places and to challenge myself in new environments. At the age of 20, I left France to Spain with one suitcase and ended up spending eight years there. Then, curious to discover something new, I took my suitcase again and moved […]
57. That is the total of videos produced by our team during WordCamp Europe 2017 in Paris. I guess we can say that the first “Video Team” ever created to cover a WordCamp was quite productive! My role was to capture funny 1-minute videos from the attendees and post them on the Twitter account of the […]
I just got back in Paris after a long trip across Spain and Portugal. Attending WordCamp Madrid, and two WordPress Meetups: one in Barcelona and one in Porto. The Meetup in Porto was unexpected. I happened to be there because I was celebrating mother’s day with my mom (of course) and my sister. Curious, I […]
I was not surprised to hear Ignacio Cruz Moreno, one of the main organizer of WordCamp Madrid, saying, during the opening remarks, that he received more than 200 emails, in the previous weeks of the event, begging for tickets. But everything was sold out. One of these emails was mine… and of course, the answer […]
I just decided I wanted to attend WordCamp Madrid. The problem is, when I made that decision, tickets were sold out already. So I AM LOOKING FOR ONE! Do you happen to know somebody who bought an entrance but finally cannot go? Please, let me know! I’ll buy it! Why I want to […]
Being back in Paris is a mix feeling of excitement and nostalgia. Excitement because I will soon see my family and friends and tell them all about my wonderful journey. Nostalgia because I already miss the people I met during my #WCAsiaRoadTrip. One of the reason of this trip was to talk at WordCamp Pune, […]
My adventures in India have come to an end but my #WCAsiaRoadTrip continues in Thailand. There, I am to speak at WordCamp Bangkok and to share with the local community my tips on how to vlog. In exchange, I hope to learn from them what is their views of WordPress in their country and what […]
WordCamp Pune was a blast. Now, I am on my way to Udaipur, Rajasthan. Another step on my #WCAsiaRoadTrip, a new region of India that I will discover and new people that I am going to meet. Even though I know for fact that a lot of the WCPune fellows will be there as well. […]
नमस्कार (namaskār) – Hello! – I am trying to learn Marathi, the official language of Pune where I am to speak at WordCamp Pune this weekend! The title of my talk is “A Video Conversation about WordPress in Asia, 2 for 1 session!” During the first part, we will record a video interview, with the […]
I started blogging a little bit by accident. I was a student and one of my class midterm projects was to create a blog. I got so excited about this project that I not only passed the class with an A but I carried on writing my blog even after I graduated! Looking back, I […]
“What is your wish for WordPress in 2017? ” That was one of the questions the VINUBIS crew and I asked to our interviewees at WordCamp US. From “more REST API” and “better user experience”, to “improved theme or plugin repositories,” we got a little bit of all! Just watch all our WCUS interviews on […]
Thank you all for coming to my talk. Watch Adam Warner intro: Here’s the Demo Video we did together, thanks for being such an enthusiastic audience!: And here’s my presentation, with all the links you need!: Last but not least, watch the full recording of this talk on WordPress TV: I […]
The majority of my WordPress friends are in the US. Some are in Eastern Europe. But none of them are in France. Inspired by engaged WordPress Meetup organizers I met at WCCBUS, like Deborah Edwards or Mary Baum, I decided to look for a local meetup in Paris. I figured it would be a great […]
I was looking at the WordCamp schedule the other day, trying to figure out which one I could go to. I pinpointed WCCBUS in Columbus, Ohio, August 26-28. I thought “Ok, I am in New York. My flight back to Paris is on September 2nd. This is doable.” I submitted the idea to Florian, the […]
I went to WordCamps as volunteer, as contributor and as simple attendee. What I never did, is to attend as speaker. Last weekend, at WordCamp Toronto, I was close! With thecplab, I was the communication assistant of one of them: Florian Gottschall. Florian, and the Vinubis team, recently released a plugin , WP Video Editor, that […]
Being a member of the WordPress community is a great way to travel the world and make great connections. While in Vienna, volunteering for the WordCamp Europe Communication Team, I met with the CEO of Vinubis, Florian Gottschall and his business partner Miriam Selzle. All started with a normal conversation about business, at the WCEUBall, […]
“So you were the one with the pink computer?” realized one of the WordCamp fellows I hung out with in the streets of Vienna on Sunday night… Indeed, if you attended the WordCamp Europe, last weekend, chances are that you saw me running around, taking pics with an iPad or seated somewhere between two conference […]
I have never been to Vienna. I know its fame for classical music and empirical architecture. But what most attracts me there, is its popularity for international congress and conventions. Thus, when I heard that the WordCamp Europe 2016 will be hosted in the MuseumsQuartier of the Austrian capital, I did not think twice. I […]
When I was a kid my parents used to send me to summer camps where I was always having great time discovering all kinds of news things and making a lot of new friends. Last weekend felt exactly like a summer camp to me; from July 16 to 19, the NYC Camp was held at […]
