[OSList] Chile in October WOSonOS...

[Suzanne Daigle]

 A shared invitation to my World wide friends and colleagues,

I did not feel that I could justify the trip to Chile for the WOSonOS and
yet I so wished to go. I held in my heart the vivid memory of Juan Luis
Walker's invitation at the WOSonOs in Berlin last year, walking the inside
of the circle extending a passionate invitation to choose Chile for 2011, a
first in South America for this World gathering.

I visited the website and it was so beautifully done.  Easy to navigate and
the all-inclusive pricing options for lodging, food and conference were so
reasonable. I could feel the same spirit of welcome that I had felt as Juan
Luis chanted "Chile, Chile, Chile".

I knew many friends would be there and many new people too. I imagined the
conversations around a very relevant question:

*"What are the main challenges and opportunities of Open Space Technology in
Latin America and the world?"*

I saw the good work of Access Queen there again to help defray costs and to
invite contributions; I noted the pre-work training before and after the
conference.  I saw the photos of this beautiful country and I knew I just
had to go!

And in the end, I also knew that the sharing that would happen in Chile
would infuse me with knowledge, friendships and a feeling of deep global
connectedness with others who passionately believe in opening space in all
kinds of places.

So as I have been all along since I met Open Space, I was impulsive again
and I bought a seat sale ticket to Chile. The heartwarming response from
Juan Luis and the host team convinced me immediately that I had made the
right decision. So what I have to say to my pals out there is perhaps you
can do as I did; taking another look at your schedule, checking your budget,
visiting the website and letting your heart lead you to Chile for the first
WOSonOS in South America.

In a spirit of shared invitation,
Suzanne
