    As soon as we got back to Sydney, we had to dash off to attend orientation for Sydney Festival volunteers. I’m looking forward to helping out with this fantastic event in January!

    Some photos from Day 1 of YOW Brisbane 2024. I spent most of the day in AI talks, and only slightly gritted my teeth. 😜

  • Forgetfulness

    One of the challenges of being back at an event like YOW Brisbane is that it highlights how terrible my memory has become for faces. I’m usually good if I see a person’s nametag, but without it I will 100% reintroduce myself to someone I’ve met many times. 😔 Apologies in advance everyone – it’s not you; it’s definitely me!
