excited to discuss plans for Ljubljana and Odessa

i haven't read the archived, but i'm very, very exited to see this group put together. i have brought my children to networking industry events for several years (most recently at a ripe 2+ years ago in amsterdam). not sure what other people are interested in, but i figure understanding each other's circumstances and interests will help, so i'll start: i have two kids, Agatha aged 7 and Beatrix aged 4. We live in the eastern part of the united states (pittsburgh, about 700km west of NYC. my kids have been to NANOG meetings in the US, one RIPE meeting in amsterdam and when Agatha was *really* young on a peering cruise. i'm excited to get them the chance to go to other places. the challenges that i've seen in the past are housing, childcare and balance between fun at the event and seeing/caring for the kids. one solution we found was to bring my partner's mother with us to amsterdam and rent a house. my partner took care of our kids during the day (i took some time with them as well) and then her mama took care of them at night while we went to the socials. it worked really well. who else is planning on (or thinking about) bringing kids to either Ljubljana, Odessa or both? cheers, todd underwood toddunder(a)gmail.com

If anyone interested in visiting Moscow at the end of November (not actually the best time to visit moscow), i could prepare little guide for travelling in Moscow with kids. Alexander.
