Yesterday I had a chance to be the MC for the first time :) I did a lot of emceeing for a lot of different events, but, never a WordCamp. Thank you, WordCamp Netherlands org team.
These are my notes on the all the speakers I had a pleasure to present to the audience.
When I was getting into WordPress community, never thought that I would be so into. It was the year 2013, was living in Norway and community in Serbia just had it’s the first meetup. I wasn’t there, but, I promised myself that I will do my best to push WP community in this part of the World.
Now there are three cities in Serbia with WP meetup (this Wednesday the third will have it’s first), and there are a couple of more cities willing to start organizing. This is huge!
Here is my week full of WP :)
Auschwitz concentration camp [Wiki] was a network of German Nazi concentration camps and extermination camps built and operated by the Third Reich in Polish areas annexed by Nazi Germany during World War II. It consisted of Auschwitz I (the original camp), Auschwitz II–Birkenau (a combination concentration/extermination camp), Auschwitz III–Monowitz (a labor camp to staff an IG Farben factory), and 45 satellite camps.
Auschwitz I was first constructed to hold Polish political prisoners, who began to arrive in May 1940. The first extermination of prisoners took place in September 1941, and Auschwitz II–Birkenau went on to become a major site of the Nazi Final Solution to the Jewish Question. From early 1942 until late 1944, transport trains delivered Jews to the camp’s gas chambers from all over German-occupied Europe, where they were killed with the pesticide Zyklon B. At least 1.1 million prisoners died at Auschwitz, around 90 percent of them Jewish; approximately 1 in 6 Jews killed in the Holocaust died at the camp.
Last weekend I was fortunate enough to attend and give a talk at WordCamp Split. WordPress in Croatia is unique, with WordPress meetups in four or five cities across Croatia, WordPress community can enjoy different Croatian city every year. The city of Split was the host this year.
Everything started on Friday, September the 2nd and the WordPress workshops. Aleksandar Savkovic gave knowledgeable Workshop titled “Is your product easy to use and why it isn’t“.

It is always so interesting when a minor detail in your day recalls so many memories. Like, whenever I hear a noise of the wooden floor in my parent’s living room when I pay them a visit suddenly I feel like home. I feel safe. I feel like I never left. Memory is still there.
We have been living separate for eleven years now, and, although we are one hour drive, unfortunately, I am not visiting them as much I as I would love to.
Until I moved to Belgrade, I lived in a small village, around 2k residents, and that is the place I call Home. And to my place in Belgrade, I always referred as a The apartment, never thought of it as my new home, dunno why :/
I passed a long way from living in the countryside, doing a lot of farming, fruit picking to organizing the WordCamp for 2k people.
So, right now, it’s 10 pm, and I am so eager to recall as many memories as I can, while I am at my parent’s house. They are making the last preparation for tomorrow’s peach picking, and I am working on convincing my father to bring me along :) I am totally aware that I don’t have to, but, still, “me wants to” :D
We did a lot of peach picking, and I mean – a lot. That was our only way to survive, and farming was a primary source of income. A lot of amazing memories and moments followed while we were at our peach plantages. Never did fancy family holidays or reunions, but, a lot of quality time together spent while working and I my parents thought me that the only way to make it in this World is to work, and to work hard.
I would love to finish this article with the favorite quote from my favorite movie:
