Before I start the rest of my journeys. EPlatforma was very big, very good and had tons of MVP's and an RD at it.Olga, Alex, Renat and myself had a brilliant meeting with the MVP's and RD - it was so good we had a chat for 60 minutes and then came back later and had food and beer and carried on.

Now most of you who know me know I love my job and I love communities. I love interacting with people of all cultures because I think it makes me a better person and I think the concept of people sharing information, idea's, concepts etc is key to our evolvution and I have to say I love interacting with MVP's and in every country. They are super smart and so so very passionate. I always learn something and not something technology wise but about people and what makes them passionate, what inspires them and what they want to give back to the communities.

Anyway, I had a great russian meal and some giggles with the MVP's and they naturally loved my white furry hat and we nearly lost our Laptops in the Science museum :-) The Next day was full of Russian Tours and seeing the MS office. Saturday was a user group meeting in the new Russian Microsoft offices and then flying to the UK.

Farewell Russia I will come back and I recommend it to any fellow travellers. It has good food, amazing sites to see and great vodka. ( also they have Sushi with Cream cheese )
