Re: [Ghm-discuss] apologies

I agree that we should in the future try to arrange a GHM outside of Europe.

Would you like to propose something?

Re: [Ghm-discuss] apologies

2017-12-06 Thread Ander Juaristi

Hi guys,

I've made an spreadsheet with the accommodations I've contacted so far, 
and which ones replied.

As you'll see, there's a mixture of hotels and hostels, big and small.

I'm keeping it up to date, and I'm getting in touch with new ones on an 
ongoing basis. Comments are welcome.


Side note: I'll be in Berlin the following 4 days, in case someone here 
wants to catch up in person.


Regards,

I'll start getting in touch with hotels, hostels, etc. in the area and
see what feedback I get. I'll keep you posted.

My parents say (and they're right) that the cost of any accommodation
in the city dramatically increases in summer so I should
watch out for this. In the event that the price exceeds some
reasonable amount I shall start looking in nearby towns.

John/Alex, is it okay if I get in touch with either of you off-list to
ask some specific questions on how you managed the logistics for last
GHM?

Thanks.

I just looked up the place. Sounds great. It would be a nice place to 
host the

next GHM.

Would it be possible to have a single venue + accommodation setting, 
like what
we had in 2017? The response for that experiment was overwhelmingly 
positive.

As long as possible, we should attempt to replicate it again.



Yes, this should be possible. I liked the setting too and would lean
towards doing that again.

It's a mid-size city with a superb atmosphere and excellent places to 
eat :)


Judging by what you said John, that the venue should be booked well 
in advance I
think we're already a bit tight on schedule but if you want I can 
give it a try
and see what places would potentially be available (already have some 
in mind).
