A mate of mine finishing his PhD is about to embark on writing a book..
"The conference guest" or something equally appropriate..
The reason I'm posting to this board on the subject is to see if any of you have any interesting stories or advendutres while away from home on travel for work..
I think there will be a special chapter in this book for several of my conferences trips :twisted:
Last year alone I went to 13 conferences and workshops. Gave talks or full hour seminars at most of them and chaired a session or two.. I must say that attending conferences is one of the main attractions of doing what i do..
I have found another thread here that discusses the what happens on tour stays on tour atittude and so on. Although I quite like the comment made previously by NM (in think, sorry if i mis-quote you).
"It doesn't matter where you get your appitite as long as you eat at home"
I'm lucky that i'm 28 and single.. I have don't have any commitments at home to worry about and conferences are more than just about giving your talk and going back to your hotel room..
Well I'd be very interested in your comments and if your story might be to explicit for the board you are more than welcome to PM me..
cheers
