Hello guys! A quick checkin from my side, I have been traveling for last 36hours, disconnected from the digital world- unaware of the mail updates. Finally, I reached Montreal for attending Wikimania’17(cheers!)
I am on my way to the Grey nuns residency at Concordia university- place I’ll be staying, hope the checking goes smoothly.

The event starts tomorrow, I’ll be participating in the Hackathon held on 9th and 10th. I have signed in for various activities like Volunteering, blogging in addition to working on the Dashboard project.
The main conference starts on 11th and I have gone through the programme schedule and have few talks that I want to attend. For other part of it I am not sure what I’ll be doing, depending on the guidance of my mentors on this one.

Well I have been questioned why do I have to come so far just for attending a conference!? By my dad mostly who is accompanying me on this journey. Well for me it’s something I had planned and not getting the scholarship was a bummer but I didn’t want to quit on my plan of meeting Sage and Jonathan or on getting this experience!
