It's where I met Sharon Joy Chao. We were two newbies then. To think that tomorrow at 6 am, I'm heading to Manila - well I'm absolutely thrilled. And I'd love to bring you all with me. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">In 2009, I announced to the world here on this list that I would facilitate or co-facilitate (helper) one Open Space a month. I had just discovered Open Space and boy was I committed. Telling everyone here about my plan was scary in itself but I just had to do it. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I kept track and two or three years later, I counted about 30. My passion and belief in this work never dimmed. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I also fell in love with our community feeling such deep admiration for the closed spaces being opened with such courage and vision. I harbored a dream that one day I could go back to my journalist roots, travel the world and write stories about Open Space, visiting facilitator friends everywhere. I confided as much to Peggy Holman. That never really materialized but I never forgot my dream. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Many reasons that I'm excited about going to the Philippines hoping that I might write some of those stories. It's one of the reasons why I created a website which I named <a href="https://openspaceontheopenroad.com/" class="">"Open Space on the Open Road". </a> I hope you'll join me there in the days and weeks to come. I'll be blogging, taking pictures and maybe some video too. Much of this is very new - my first website that I can call my very own. My goal is to share the stories of the ordinary extraordinary people that I'll be meeting on this trip.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">And if you stop by, please send me a note in the section titled NOW YOU!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">And finally I do hope you decide to join us at the QiQoChat house. I promise that experiencing the World Open Space on Open Space virtually will be the next best thing to being there. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">You can <a href="http://openspace.qiqochat.com/" class="">register here</a>!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Suzanne</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""> </div><br clear="all" class=""><div class=""><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class="">Suzanne Daigle<br class="">Open Space Facilitator<br class="">NuFocus Strategic Group<br class=""><br class="">FL <span class="">941-359-8877</span><span dir="ltr" class=""><span dir="ltr" class=""><span class=""><img class=""></span></span></span><br class="">Cell: <span class="">203-722-2009</span><br class=""><a href="http://www.nufocusgroup.com/" target="_blank" class="">www.nufocusgroup.com</a><br class=""><a href="mailto:s.daigle@nufocusgroup.com" target="_blank" class="">s.daigle@nufocusgroup.com</a><br class="">Twitter @Daiglesuz<br class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></div></div></div></div>
