RLFM Days 2023: Finally back home after a whirlwin RLFM Days 2023: Finally back home after a whirlwind trip to Billund for Skaerbaek Fan Weekend and most importantly Fan Media Days.

I'm feeling extremely grateful for the time there, and while it was really exciting seeing all the incredible sets coming in the next few months, the most enjoyable part was meeting my fellow "colleagues" and spending quality time with some of the most innovative and dynamic creators in the LEGO Space.

It was so good to meet new faces, forge new connections and spend quality time together in the home of LEGO, break bread, laugh, and just enjoy this incredible community that flew in from all corners of the world.

Now that I've been doing LEGO full-time, it can be quite a lonely job as you're mostly working on your own, and not a lot of people understand the unique challenges that come with content creation.

But last week, I really enjoyed being with my peers, whom I have so much professional respect for and be able to share, gripe and also learn from one another, who are so inspiring to me.

Here's a few of photos I took that sum up the vibes of Fan Media Days 2023.

Photos definitely don't do it justice as it's just so huge, and it's colourful, whimsical and magical, wrapped around 4 sides of the pillar. 

The mural's 4 artworks are as follows:
