That way, you will not be at a loss for words when talking to someone you just met.<\/li>\n<li>Be familiar with the list of speakers. Decide which topics interest you the most. Then make it a point to introduce yourself to the speakers who will present those topics. Set a goal to meet at least three speakers. If you know about a speaker\u2019s work and you admire what they are doing, tell them!<\/li>\n<li>If you already know a few people who are attending WordCamp, try not to limit your interaction with only them. Get out of your comfort zone and introduce yourself to someone that you notice is standing alone. Chances are, that person is also introverted and will appreciate meeting you!<\/li>\n<li>During lunch, sit with a few people that you don\u2019t know. You can talk about the morning sessions and what you look forward to hearing in the afternoon.<\/li>\n<li>Remember to have fun! WordCamp is a casual event, so relax and enjoy meeting people that share your interests.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em> Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/2016.fayetteville.wordcamp.org\/an-introverts-guide-to-attending-wordcamp\/\" target=\"_blank\">WordCamp Fayetteville<\/a> <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I hope, above tips are useful \ud83d\ude42 Eager to meet you all at <em> WordCamp Nashik 2016!<\/em><br \/>\nDid you register at WordCamp Nashik yet?<br \/>\n<a style=\"border-bottom: 1px dashed;text-decoration: none\" href=\"https:\/\/2016.nashik.wordcamp.org\/tickets\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Don&#8217;t delay!, Grab Your Tickets, Now!<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For newcomers, attending and meeting new people at WordCamps can be an intimidating experience, especially for introverts who are not used to start the conversation.
