Yesterday I have been an invited speaker at the Star Party 2018 in Pfalzen/Falzes in South Tyrol Italy.
I use this post to thank my former teacher Christof Wiedemair for the invitation. For me it has been a confidence boost - the audience was engaged and interested, like this it’s fun to give a talk!
Star Party of the Dolomites still goes on on the Weekend, so if anybody around is interested on an insight of amateur astronomy, have a look at this Facebook event page - (Warning: Goes to Facebook) or the Empiricamente Event page.
I am honestly impressed by the passion and the professionalism of those people. It’s worth going there!
Thanks again Christof, I’m looking forward to more opportunities like this :-)
