Which team are you a part of, and what is your role?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hi! I&#8217;m in the Photography Team again this year, helping organise. My job is to find volunteer photographers, keep in touch with them, and ensure we capture everything during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where are you from \/ where are you based?<\/strong><br>Originally, I&#8217;m from Ukraine. I left my country during my teenage years, and now I live in Greece, just an hour away from Athens,\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When did you first get involved with the WordPress project, and have you contributed to the project previously?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I started using WordPress back in college around 2008-2009. I discovered WordPress community in 2015 when I went to WordCamp Europe in Seville. Since then, I&#8217;ve helped out with support, translations, and taking photos. I&#8217;ve also volunteered at WCEU and spoken at local WordCamps in Athens and Thessaloniki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is this your first time organising WordCamp Europe, or have you been an organiser\/volunteer previously?<\/strong><br>This is my second year organising WCEU. I volunteered in 2015 for the first time,\u00a0 and in 2023, I was part of the Photography Team organisers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Which team are you on, and what is the team responsible for?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;I&#8217;m with the Photography Team. Our job is to take pictures of everything at the event &#8211; speakers, volunteers, sponsors, attendees, food, you name it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What are you and your team working on at the moment?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now, we&#8217;re looking for volunteer photographers. If you&#8217;re into photography, we&#8217;d love to have you &#8211;&nbsp; join us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What are you excited about for WordCamp Europe?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m most excited about meeting new people from all over the world. It&#8217;s fantastic to be surrounded by folks who share the same interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What would you say to people thinking of applying as an organiser or volunteer for WordCamp Europe?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just go for it! Being part of WCEU is a great experience that you won&#8217;t regret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you have been on the organising team for previous WCEU\u2019s, what are one or two things you learned from the experience?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve learned how important it is to be organised and manage time well. There&#8217;s a lot to do, and everything must be done on time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anastasiya lives in Greece and is part of the Photography Team for WordCamp Europe, helping to organise our team of volunteer photographers to capture the event on film!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18639594,"featured_media":11540,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[44],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11539","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-organiser-interview"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/files\/2024\/04\/Anastasiya-Kolomoytseva-_-Featured-Image-1.jpg?fit=1200%2C630&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/peP1kR-307","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18639594"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11539"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11539\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11541,"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11539\/revisions\/11541"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11540"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
