BRICKLIVE Press Officer Mark Guest reports from the launch of the ASEAN tour
Indonesia was not a country I have had the privilege of visiting before, neither was it a location that had hosted a BRICKLIVE event, so you can imagine the excitement was enhanced somewhat as this week I set off to Jakarta for part one of the South East Asian tour.
I love travelling around the globe following the BRICKLIVE roadshow, and whilst it’s always exciting it has to be said when it’s a trip of firsts, like this one, emotions can be a heady cocktail of anticipation and excitement. My uppermost thought in scenarios like this is the fact I am travelling out to assist our partners on their first BRICKLIVE adventure and I want it to be as stress free as possible. Co-ordinating and managing 4000sqm of bricks in a totally unfamiliar environment can bring its challenges. It doesn’t matter how many times you’ve seen the floor plan and assessed the space you can still be thrown a curve ball upon seeing the venue in the flesh, something which is less of a factor at the more established events.
