  • It is always great to meet with people I already know

    • Our team at Wiki in Africa (Isla Haddow-Flood and Florence Devouard - we often exchange online but we rerely meet)
  • Meeting people working at the Cape Town libraries was great
  • Meeting volunteers from Africa I didn't know before
