+I recently attended FSCONS in Göteborg. It was the first
+time for me. I'm very glad I went.
+
+The idea of attending was to deepen my involvement with
+"the free software movement" - feeding my ideas about how I
+can or want to contribute.
+
+I decided to participate a long time ago. I've considered
+finding a mentor, applying for the Outreach Program for Women
+etc., but I still need to figure out how to make small
+contributions, finding a team to work with etc. I'm a little
+disappointed with myself that I haven't figured it all out
+already, a long tima ago, that is. I know I want to work with
+interface design, but while I'm a web designer, I am not an
+expert on interface design. And I'd convinced a part of
+myself that I had nothing to contribute.
+
+So I was on a quest, going to FSCONS. Some people I know would
+be there, and there was a chance to meet up with some friends
+of Jonas, that I'd already heard of. Jonas was giving a talk
+himself, and it made sense to meet more free software-people
+in Scandinavia and help strengthen the community a bit. (It's
+needed! There are not many free software users in Scandinavia.)
+
+We stayed with two students from India, Raghu and. They were
+kind enough to invite us to crash in their small student
+apartment and feed us breakfast and dinner for four days.
