Connections[edit]

One of the best thing of the Wikimania conference is meeting again with many friends on Wikimedia community. It started from airport in Albania, where I traveled together with Jona to Istanbul, there Greta & Gikü joined us to our journey to South Africa.

  • CEE friends, where we discussed for future of our region community, next CEE meeting, and other projects communities of this region have.
  • Commons community of photographers, especially Matti Blume, we discussed for a possible wiki photographers conference
  • Vahid, with whom shared first steps of WoALUG in Education Program.
  • Amire80, as usual, we talk and talk and always fix a language bug in Tools of Wikimedia.
  • Faith - we meet at Happy hour, talked about our professional background, and our local wikis we represent. With Faith I had some great experiences on the tour we had in Cape Town, Boulders Beach, and hiking in Table Mountain, which brought us closer and made me know more about her.
  • Ursula Zage - I met her at the closing party, after that we discussed many things, but more important learning some Swahili words, speaking for traditional music and dances of Ghana and Albania.
  • Sami Mlouhi, roommate and my friend.
  • Reem, Felix, Edd Erhart, Andy Marbett, Jack Rabah, Oscar Costero, Adrei Cipu, Armineaghayan
