Well, here we are two years and one pandemic after I won the race to be the DUFF delegate from North America to attend ConZealand. At this point, I think I may be the longest serving DUFF delegate since this group was first established in the ’70s. So, let’s put that to an end and get the DUFF wheels moving again.
It is with excitement that I am writing this post today. Given that travel is nearly back to normal in Australia and New Zealand, I am planning a trip to Australasia toward the end of the year.
I’m currently looking into timing, potential meetups, and places to visit. Initially, I am thinking of visiting 1-2 cities in Australia and likely the north island of New Zealand.
As my plans come together for a DUFF trip this year, I will share the details here. If you have suggestions for places to visit or people to see, please feel free to comment here or share your ideas with me via email at erin.m.underwood (at) gmail (dot) come.
Also, as an early heads up, the next DUFF race will run next year to bring a fan from Australasia to North America for the 2024 NASFIC. I’m working on pulling that information together and will share the details later this year as well.
If you would like to help support the Down Under Fan Fund, please make a gift today.
