Leaving Dresden
diegolego, 23:59h
After a couple of days in Dresden, now it was time to leave. The conference was quite interesting, mainly because there were more sessions related to my work, in contrast to Pittsburgh for example. In addition, I myself could give longer talks of 30min. Both were ok, although people did not ask many questions. But one never knows, as long as they read the papers, it is fine to me.
I did not do much sight seeing since I say most famous sites already a couple of years ago. Instead I used the free time I had for some business such as buying important stuff, in particular chocolate.
I met some old acquaintances, such as people who I already knew from other conferences (I do not even remember which) or a former student from the time when I was a teaching assistant. In addition, I spoke to a college who also has studied in Gießen. It is funny, that I already knew some talks (and the speakers) from Pittsburgh.
However, I also met some interesting 'new' people in the conference and want to try to keep contact.
