I've been running a D&D Westmarches campaign for over 30 people for the past 2 years, and I thought I'd write up some reflections in a blog post. Enjoy!

Reflections on a Westmarches D&D Campaign

Most people that know me know that I'm a big fan of tabletop RPGs! Here are some reflections of my experience running a large scale Dungeons & Dragons Westmarches campaign for around 30 players over the past 2 years.

🇸🇪 I måndags blev jag svensk medborgare! Last Monday I became a Swedish citizen! 🇸🇪 (I'm still Maltese, don't worry)

I celebrated by bringing in a Swedish flag themed ice-cream to the office 😁🎉

I wrote a short blog post on my website about attending my first Nordic Game conference in Malmö! I had a great time there; the talks were great, and I met so many amazing and inspiring people! #NordicGame

Nordic Game 2024

I made my way to Malmö to attend my first ever Nordic Game!

I recently got the opportunity to attend Game Summit Sweden, a game development conference in Stockholm organised by Dataspelsbranschen, so I wrote a short blog post about the talks I attended and what I learned there.

It was a fantastic event; I met and spoke to so many people, and I really hope this becomes a yearly event!

Game Summit Sweden 2023

I recently got the opportunity to attend Game Summit Sweden, a game development conference in Stockholm organised by Dataspelsbranschen.

Game Summit Sweden was a fantastic event; the talks were amazing, and I met and spoke to so many new people. Here's hoping it becomes a permanent event in the Swedish gamedev scene!
Time for the Game Summit Sweden conference!
Spent an hour on the phone with my mum today, and got to hear some fantastic stories; including her childhood growing up in Sliema, Malta, stories about her uncle during WW2, and stories about her parents, grandparents, and great grandparents

Hallo! If you see me around #GDC2023, please feel free to come say hi; I'm always willing to meet new people! Photos below for a visual :D
