Quote from: Phinnaeus Gage on June 05, 2012, 07:49:40 PM Exactly how many will be going? 4 or 6? Would you consider all wearing shirts with a Bitcoin logo on them and have your picture picture taken by a Kenyan using the Kenyan countryside as the backdrop? The reason I'm asking is I feel that with such photos (I mentioned Bitcoin Magazine earlier to be used in a photshoot), a great article can be written about your trip for inclusion in an upcoming Bitcoin Magazine issue this fall (before Christmas). ~Bruno~ I have already contacted edd telling him we would of course wear them and post pictures of wearing them in kenya. As for the articles we have no problem with that as long as we get to see (and correct it) beforehand.

Je to ekipo, ki bo Kenija? Translated: Is this the team that is going to Kenya? We look forward to answering your questions as well, TeamKenya. ~Bruno~ yes, this is the team, but i am missing on that picture. We have thoroughly questioned vuce about bitcoin already

Quote from: hazek on June 05, 2012, 07:06:38 PM Ok some more questions then: Have you already raised all the money you need or are you still fundraising? Have you made any prior arrangements with any of the locals or are you going in blind so to speak? How long do you intend to stay? Have you thought about how you're going to ensure your safety? Do you have any mental strategies prepared to deal with probably not so rosy circumstances you about to find yourselves in? I think that's enough for now. We are still collecting funds and in case if we dont collect enought we will pay the difference from our pockets...after all it is an interesting experience for us and we dont want to miss it... On every location earlier expeditions set up temporary little houses where we try to provide continous medical care and educational programs. Every three months goes another team there...or at least we try to be there as much as possible.... Section for tropical medicine organizes every year many lectures so that we have knowledge about tropical diseases and we also take the needed immunizations and drugs for us as well. well we will just have to go with the flow...

Quote from: edd on June 05, 2012, 06:49:03 PM Are there more trips like this planned for the future? Might this be a good opportunity to lay a foundation and procedures for funding future expeditions with bitcoin donations? the section of tropical medicine in Slovenia organizes humanitarian expeditions allover the world, not only to Africa, usually about every three months. Here (http://www.stpm.org/index.php/destinacije) are listed all other expeditions, usually every one of them is in need of aditional funds, sothis would surely be appreciated.

Quote from: hazek on June 05, 2012, 06:50:50 PM Phinnaeus Gage I completely misunderstood the purpose of this thread, I thought it was going to be a live chat with them where we, the Bitcoin community, ask them qestions but no I see that it's actually meant to be the other way around where they would like to ask us question so that they better understand Bitcoin, or do I still misunderstand what is happening in this thread? you understood correctly, i though people wanted to ask more questions about the expecition.

Quote from: Phinnaeus Gage on June 05, 2012, 06:36:28 PM Quote from: hazek on June 05, 2012, 06:27:44 PM What is the most important aspect of Bitcoin in your opinion? I'm glad you asked that question now, hazek, for I thought only of them asking questions, not thinking that we can ask them questions as well. That said, I guess we can start asking questions now, thus having something for them to address when they get started on their end. The main topic of this thread will be about Kenija2012 (their trip to Kenya) and the important facets of Bitcoin. The more they know about Bitcoin, the better they will be able to explain it down the road when asked how part of their trip was financed. My first question: When is the tentative departure date? ~Bruno~ departure date is on 7/27.

Please clarify the date of their departure. I thought I read July 1, but believe I'm now reading it as... Quote Purpose: THIRD WORLD KENYA August - October 2012 ...on this page: http://www.kenija2012.net/stro%C5%A1ki-odprave.php Also, I'll assume that Bitcoin 100 (linked) would be mention on the following if/when this comes to fruition--(We were financially supported by:) ~Bruno~ the date of departure is 7/27. We dont need the funds much before that date as most of the funds will be used in kenya anyway.
