As I have already mentioned a couple of times, I like HIVE meetups and I have attended almost a dozen... Some of them were bigger ones, like HiveFest in Amsterdam, HiveBeeCon in Krakow, or BuzzParty in Hamburg, but the rest were small meetups (one-on-one) with other Hivians around the world, like with @jesuslnrs and @jhoxiris in Madrid, @xaviduran in Valencia, @palomap3 and @ninaeatshere in Zaragoza, @amico in Italy, @ewkaw in Portugal, @edprivat in Spain, @alt3r and her boyfriend in Serbia, etc. But, I have never organized a "bigger" meetup, with more than 1-2 people, from different places, so doing it, made me appreciate even more people who were organizing them in the past... Thanks, guys, and girls for all your effort...
Long story short, I get an idea to try to create one! That's how the idea was born and that's why we will have this meetup in Novi Sad, Serbia! It is open for everyone to join, but as it is in the middle of "vacation season" (including myself on vacation), we will have a smaller meetup! But still, it will connect people who are living in different parts of the world and country, but also different nationalities... That's HIVE! We should have people from the Netherlands and Spain, but also people from Belgrade, and some other places from Vojvodina! We will meet some new Hivians and meet again some old friends too!

THE PLAN for Saturday, August 17th, Novi Sad, Serbia!
Just a few organizational information! As we will be a small group, everything that you find under these lines is subject to change if we decide differently... What is fixed is our meeting point and the time of this "historical" Hive meetup π π»
10:30 - 11:00 - HIVE Meetup Point, Cafe Restaurant Masha, Zmaj Jovina 4, Novi Sad. Map details We can drink a coffee, or some refreshing drink before our tour around the city... This cafe is very close to the Holy Name of Mary Catholic Church, which is very easy to find as it is in the city center.
11:00-14:30 - Sightseeing of Novi Sad and Petrovaradin Fortress... We will have a lot of time for talking, taking photos, and making some great memories during the walk...
15:00-17:30 - Launch in Sremski Karlovci to escape from the heat of the city asphalt! I know that I have mentioned Fruska Gora as an option, but in the end, after some great recommendations for a restaurant, I went for the Danube river banks in a traditionally decorated place!
17:30 - ??? Time for sightseeing in the third place on the same day! Sremski Karlovci is a town I haven't visited either, but I heard that it is gorgeous... This will be a perfect time to explore it and learn more about it!
What are your next steps if you want to come?
- Confirm your arrival in the comment section of this post!
- If you can't make it to the meeting point, write down where and when you will come and I (or someone else) will come to pick you up... Train station, bus station, etc.
- If you want, you can leave your Discord or Telegram address in the comment section for easier coordination before the meeting point...
- Bring with you a hat, sunglasses, and a bottle of water as the sun is burning... π
If you can't make it to the meeting point, but you can make it during the afternoon, you are more than welcome to join us...
I will tag people who have shown interest in coming to the meetup, but also some other people who could be interested in it... I know that some of you are working on Saturdays, but if you can make it later on, it would be great to have you with us!

Awesome...perhaps bit too hot for touring. I know you are used to it..but me.. hahaha
See you soon.
at least you are in shape, you live in Netherlands you drive bicycles π
i will die till 1 PM π
need to thing about the bag of equipment (end up taking everything π )
Haha..in shape for 20 degrees maximum. :) with each degree higher shape decreases exponentially :)
π
Hey are you in the meeting?
One more thing... As you are coming from Belgrade, maybe you could pick up @little.lamb?
I will be checking that new train between Belgrade and Novi Sad.
Sure... have to check timetables also..
Are you already there? I can come from Stara Pazova
Yeah, it is a bit too hot, but we will split the walking time with refreshing time and launch... π
Maybe we can take a bath in the Danube too? π
I am very excited to read this and hope it will be a successful and bonding moment. I wish it was that easy for me to get there and meet you again, although I feel that we will meet again at some point.... When we met in Madrid it was more effort from both of you, something that I will never forget and that I will always be grateful for, it is little what I could give you materially, but you stayed with my heart, my great friend from Serbia who lives in Spain and whose name is impossible for me to pronounce π π₯
I really enjoyed our meetup in Madrid and I mention it very often to friends and other Hivians! I have no doubt that we will meet again, somewhere... π
All the best to you and @jhoxiris!! πβ€οΈ
Aww have a great time guys! Iβll be waiting for yummy pictures! π€£π
It looks like we will be a small (but chosen) group at the meetup... π
But, we will try to do some pics... Mipiano is always fast on that trigger... π
It looks like a decent plan. I won't be anywhere close to that meetup but I hope that everyone who wants to go will make it.
I did my best to make it as simple as possible, but there is a chance that this heatwave will scare off some people... We will see what happens... :)
Hey, @ph1102: thanks for mentioning me, my friend!
However, we met (with my great joy) several times also in Spain, during my wanderings by Van...
A huge hug!
π€
You are welcome!
Yeah, we met several times in different locations... Where will we do the next meetup? :)
I wish you a memorable day. May many join you! Greetings.
Thank you very much! We will have fun for sure! ππ»
Looks exciting! Have fun! Am too farrrrr away! Lol!
!LUV
Thanks! I hope we will have at least 1 Hivian at the meetup... lol... π
@ph1102, @relf87(4/5) sent you LUV. | tools | discord | community | HiveWiki | <>< daily
Thanks for the invitation @ph1102 !
I was really looking forward to it because I found out earlier from @mipiano that there would be a gathering, but something came up, too bad! π€·
I wish everyone who comes a pleasant association and a nice experience.
Greetings to all Haivers from @vragolana !
β€οΈπ
Awwww... We were thrilled when we heard that you would come, and that's why this comes like a cold shower... π
Anyway, if something else comes up and you get free of obligation, you are welcome to join us.. :)
If not, I hope there will be more occasions to meet you in the future!

Turks don't need visa for entrance to Serbia. π
That's good news! So, you are coming to the meetup? π
I wish I would :)
Hmmm, sounds fun already, the meetup will be successful hopefully, have a blast!
When you have only 2 Hivers in one place, it is already fun! π
Thanks! I hope we will not get sunburned... maybe a bit Hiveburned! π
Hey, I couldn't contact you in Twitter because I'm not verified there, do you have WhatsApp or Viber?
@half_russian this is my telegram, I can join you today.
Hey, Clix... We are already into meetup... Currently in the restaurant in Sremski Karlovci, but we will have a lunch in a few minutes, and soon after that end the meetup...
Maybe an 1-2 hour max...
So it's too late to meet? You mentioned that you'll do something at 5 pm. Do you have a telegram account?
@ph1102 that's my Telegram... Or Discord is even better... You can join Liotes Discord and find me easy...

Happy Hive meetup to everyone who made that a success
We haven't made those moments yet, but we will this Saturday!
