There will be plenty of time for telling stories, discussing and analyzing TBEX 13 in Toronto. We’ll have speaker slides up later this week, we’ll have surveys coming out, and we’ll be opening speaker submissions for Dublin.
But for now, the TBEX team is spending a little time enjoy Toronto, traveling home, and resting up after this amazing event. So, we’re going to let you do the talking for us.
We’ll be adding a list of all the posts written about the event to this post. It’ll take us a couple of days to get a good start, so if you’ve written one, please email the link to Jessica or myself and we’ll make sure it’s added – and don’t worry – we’ll be updating in often to include your post.
Thanks to everyone for making this such a great event! We look forward to seeing you in Dublin.

Cheers
It was an amazing experience having so many global travel bloggers descend on my ‘hood for the Toronto TBEX — really a pleasure meeting so many people, sharing my love for this city and for food/travel media. Come back soon! 🙂
Here’s mine http://www.pointsandtravel.com/the-distillery-historic-district-toronto-canada/
It was first TBEX and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I have done two posts so far (one in English, one in French) on my blog, as well as one on TourismExpress, the Tourism industry leading publication in the province of Quebec. Below are the links. Cheers,

Great idea! I’d love to see the portfolio of posts coming out of the TBEX crowd on Toronto and TBEX. I’ll send my Getting Rid of Tan Lines in Toronto post as well as my teaser for pre-TBEX. Here’s to more good times and good stories.
I haven’t completed my sightseeing and TBEX posts, but I have a list of links from TBEX presentations, slide decks and more at http://www.friscokids.net/p/tbex.html

Hello TBEX folks and thanks for listing my 3 blog posts following the event. I just wanted to mention that No. 16 on your list here is actually a blog post in English (10 tips for working with travel bloggers and destination). And I just published another post inspired from TBEX, here:

Looking forward to perhaps seeing you in Dublin… as a speaker?
😉
Cheers,
