It’s a strange feeling to have UbiComp and ISWC so close to my home. Amazing organization and impressive research and meeting old friends.

Some personal highlights (in random order):

We also had a couple of papers accepted. Thanks again for the great team (a lot of them also helping as student volunteers :) )
