In January, I applied to be a student volunteer at C++Now 2015, and I was very excited to be one of the few selected people. C++Now is organised by Boost and held annually in Aspen, Colorado, in the States.

It was very lively and social and the environment created by all attendees was just great, be it during the talks, lunches or one of the other social sessions. If you’re curious about the talks at the conference and what else was happening, read on!
