I'm at Girona airport waiting for my flight back to Pescara ๐ฌ
Thanks to all the members of the @django community who trusted us and joined us in Palafrugell ๐๏ธ
I still remember talking about the Django Sprints first with @felixxm , Simon Charette, @carlton and @wsvincent at @djangocon 2022 in San Diego ๐ด
Special thanks to Carlton for believing in this idea and for carrying the weight of organizing the first edition. ๐ค
Carlton, we did it! ๐
We had a wonderful evening in Calella de Palafrugell ๐
A great dinner, good company, and lots of nice conversations โจ
Even though itโs October and off-season, the weather was perfect and the quiet coast made everything even more special ๐
The local wine chosen by @felixxm was amazing! ๐ท
Thanks also to @carlton and @judy2k for staying "literally" until the end of the evening. ๐

We woke up again on the Costa Brava in Calella de Palafrugell, where we spent so many pleasant moments together under a wonderful weather ๐๏ธ
A morning of leisure and relaxation after three intense days of sprints was just what we needed to recharge and unwind ๐
Of course we kept talking about all the ideas we shared these days but this time far from the computer while exploring the old town of Girona ๐ฐ

Another lovely afternoon together in Palafrugell, on the Costa Brava. ๐
After three intense days of sprints, sharing lunch and taking a little time to rest was exactly what we needed to recharge. ๐ฝ๏ธ๐ช
A perfect way to wrap up this inspiring Django On The Med experience! ๐๏ธ

The third morning marks the end of this first edition of Django On The Med ๐๏ธ
Itโs amazing how much we achieved in such a short time, with a small group of focused developers. ๐ช
The goal of the sprints has been fully reached. But the experience is not over yet, this afternoonโs rest and tonightโs dinner are part of the social side too. ๐

Another wonderful afternoon spent with amazing people ๐
Taking time to recharge after a morning of intense work is essential to balance our energy and take care of ourselves ๐๏ธ
During big conferences, itโs usually hard to find moments like this, and surely not on a beautiful beach of the Costa Brava ๐

The second day of Django On The Med is starting here in Palafrugell. ๐๏ธ
We want to thank the City Council of Palafrugell for providing the venue. ๐ช๐ธ
After a short bike ride to get there and a nice breakfast offered by Python Espaรฑa, weโre ready to keep working together to make Django even better! ๐๐ดโโ๏ธ

After a long preparation phase โ and three years since I wrote my article โMy Django active developers Sprints proposal ๐ โ after DjangoCon US 2022 in San Diego โ Django sprints are finally happening for real! โจ
This morning starts Django On The Med ๐๏ธ, in Palafrugell, right on the Mediterranean. Iโll share this experience with you all! ๐

Itโs such a joy to see the first Django On The Med sprints come to life so beautifully. ๐๏ธ
I had first suggested this idea back in 2022, and helping organize it together with @carlton made it even more special. ๐
Iโm truly grateful to everyone who joined, shared their energy, and made these three days such a positive experience. ๐
Read my post collecting all the Mastodon moments from the event:

The third evening of Django On The Med ๐๏ธ was as amazing as the others ๐
It was the perfect way to wrap up a few intense and memorable days ๐
We said goodbye to some friends but everyone left happy with the time shared together ๐ซ
I look forward to seeing all of you again at the next edition ๐
