From You to Cambridge, What's Your Map Distance to OEGlobal 2026?

Adding something new to the OEGlobal 2026 Interaction Zone, whether you are able to travel to be there in Cambridge or if you are participating online.

Share your distance from the conference venue! This could be the map distance you might be travelling to get to the conference venue in Cambridge or how close/far from Brisbane you are participating online.

Use a tool like Distance From/To, enter your city/country in one box and Brisbane, Australia in the other this number, to get the map distance to share in a reply below (miles, kilometers, heck nautical miles, or convert to meters, yards, cubits you choose), and ideally a screenshot of your results.

For me, I will be virtually there as an online participant from my home outside of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan:


Screenshot from https://www.distancefromto.net/ – It looks like my path goes just north of the water that should only be known as Lake Ontario!

For me, from home in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan Canada, I am 2760 km, 1715 miles from Cambridge. That would be 7,769000 meters (I can do that in my head), 3,018,373 yards, and only 5,963,853 cubits (with help converting) away..

How about you? How far away are you from Cambridge? Calculate and share.

I wish I could be there. I will be presenting tomorrow: OEGlobal 2026: Building the Next Generation of Open Edu...

You will be missed as well, thank you for presenting online from 12429 km away, I mapped it for you:

I hope you do not mind if I copied your message to the Session Conversation’s area so maybe we can instigate some discussion around the partnering with students on OER Creation through the UNITWIN fellowships at UCT.

I’m 1344.59 km or 835.49 miles away! :slight_smile:

Pretty far from Fort Worth, Texas! :slight_smile:

You got a direct flight!
