In this, the sixth episode of #PressPause mini podcast series, we speak with Dave Toomey. He’s a website and ads consultant from Ireland.

All of the episodes are released in the run up to WordCamp Europe. My name is Nathan Wrigley, and Micah Dailey (from WPMU Dev) and I have been on the lookout for some WordCamp stories to share with you; stories that have stuck with previous attendees of WordCamps. It’s a chance to pause and remember that WordPress is made up of people, just like you.

Dave talks about a time that he overcame his anxiety and attended WordCamp London. How he arranged to meet up with some of his online friends before he set off, so that there would be things ‘booked’ in – things to do when he arrived.

He wanted to meet people who shared his passion for WordPress, because in his normal day to day life, there are none of them around. This is the perfect reason to attend, but it’s so much more than that.
