Drupal Day Lisbon 2022: first time in Portugal, first time outside my comfort zone

Drupal Day Portugal 2022 at NTT DATA in Lisbon: a heartwarming community, amazing miradouros, and a presentation on Acerta for the first time.

It was a huge honour to be at Drupal Day Portugal 2022. And outside my comfort zone: first time in Portugal, first time giving this specific presentation.

The community

The Portuguese community was heartwarming. Thanks Ricardo Amaro. The conference at NTT DATA was very well organised, with great sessions throughout the day.

The weather was great, the people were great, and the miradouros were everything.

Note to self: book more days the next time.

Thanks

To Dropsolid for letting me go. To Acerta for letting me present about their case. And to everyone who made it what it was.
