Dear NoMe friends!
I believe that all of us have very mixed feelings about present covid and travel situation. Although it seems to be under control at present, there are signs that new covid variations are picking up in many countries and by August we can face restrictions coming back – especially when people start moving around during Summer holidays and feeling of freedom makes many to loose caution. Nobody can tell how long this temporary freedom will last and who can travel where without quarantine after few months time.
After getting your feedback and speaking to John and Felix yesterday evening, we decided to postpone NoMe for another year. We all are missing each other and time is not working in our advance, but as many of us don’t feel confident about travel right now, it’s better to wait a bit more and make NoMe 2022 a proper event to remember – with confidence and peace in mind for all of us.
So, please save these dates, I hope that finally we can do it:
NoMe Pre-tour: August 14th to 18th 2022
NoMe 2022: August 18th to 21st 2022
PS. If you wish to attend Pre-tour, better to arrive August 13th (Saturday) already as we’d like to depart before noon on Sunday.
If you prefer to spend some days before or after NoMe on your own, please let me know and I will make pre-bookings with hotel.
BTW, Tallinn was voted the best European city for quality of life by Express Travel:

Yours in NoMe

Dear Vaho, dear Merle
Dear friends in NoMe
As someone, who knows how much work and time you have to invest to organize a NoMe, I would like to thank our friends from Estonia very much for their endurance and patience.
And that’s precisely why I think the decision to postpone NoMe 2021 for another year shows the huge commitment of Vaho and Merle.
Meanwhile, it is also my opinion, that it is right to postpone, because a NoMe lives from unrestricted contacts, from the joy of meeting friends and having fun with them. From today’s perspective, whether all of this will be possible in August 2021, wherever in the world, must be questioned.
Therefore, I hereby bindingly register for NoMe 2022 in Estonia and I am also looking forward to the PreTour from August 14th until August 18th 2022.
Until then, everyone stays healthy
Greetings from Heilbronn
Mike and Ute
