Attending WordCamp Antwerp 2016: Being a speaker for the first time

For a lot of people this may seem to be a trivial thing: yes, I will see a lot of my WordPress fellows, yes, I will catch up with what they are doing and yes, I’ll get the latest updates from the community... but it’s just another WordCamp, just another talk.

Mohammed Eisa – a versatile supporter working for WPML and Toolset clients

Mohammed Eisa I am standing on the Corniche (Al-Kurnīsh), the promenade running along the Eastern harbor. Tangy, iodine laden breezes blow inland from the southern Mediterranean. Long waves gently roll in, splashing against the eastern promenade, while above and all around the seagulls cry plaintively. But where am I? I’m living in Alexandria, Egypt, the city that I love so much because of its nature. Just being here makes me feel so happy. However, I was...
