There is excitement in Israeli blogger land, as plans are already under way for an English-speaking Israeli blogger bash, to be held some time in late August – early September.
If you are an English-speaking Israeli blogger who did not already know about this, click here and join the group. There is a poll to decide when and where the meet-up will take place.
I am personally excited about meeting people who share their thoughts with me over the net, and some of whom read what I have to say. It is weird to think that we are meeting for the first time. Will it feel like we already know each other? Will the bloggers be as I imagine from reading their blogs, or are their blogs representative of a more outgoing version of their true selves? Will they find me to be as obnoxious as they probably think I am from reading my blog? I promise to be on my best behaviour!
Maybe it is because I have been watching way too much reality tv lately, but it feels a bit like a reality tv show where a group of strangers are placed in a situation together. Perhaps it will be more like The Bachelor, where one man has to pick between numerous eligible admirers.
In any event, it should be a great experience. And since I also qualify as an Australian blogger, I also look forward to meeting up with the Perth/Aussie bloggers when I return to Australia to visit my folks (perhaps early next year).
