Okay, so we're stuck somewhere in western Europe, initially 'cause we couldn't get travel insurance for all kinds of silly bureaucratic reasons. Now we've *finally* solved the insurance issue, with the generous help of pearax (he had to donate a *lot* of his time to make it work) we need the next, and unfortunately most expensive, leg of our "trip" funded: getting across the pond from here.
We have at most a month to get the funds together or we'll miss our ship. There aren't that many ships a year so we're desperately trying to still make it.
To save you generous folks the hassle of sending us money directly, as well as to bring some public accountability to the whole affair, a friend has set up a crowdfunding page at the following URL--
(We've been told by someone reviewing the write-up there that it sounds "a bit scammy", but no-one in the small circle we've been able to show it to has been able to come up with something better; if you think you can, please tell us!)
We can't give further details in public, so if you need to know more before donating, please send a private message -- thanks!
