Transportation, Lodging & Facebook
Once you have registered, you are eligible to join our Facebook group at Europolitan Conference 2013. It's the place to find a travel partner, a hotel roommate. You will also find useful documents, like "Conference Etiquette," or "Critique Groups," both of which provide information to help you navigate the conference.

It's a great place to "meet" other attendees before the conference begins. You can post questions to the organizers. If you're familiar with Paris, suggest things to do.
