₿☕ [International] Traveling with Bitcoin — Satoshis Coffeeshop Open House

On Saturday(!), 31st of May, 7pm, we have an international, English-language special event at Satoshi's Coffeeshop about Traveling with Bitcoin. Special guest is Paco de la India.

> Hi, I’m Paco de la India. In 2021, inspired by books like The Bitcoin Standard, I set off on the “Run With Bitcoin” journey—a mission to travel the world using only Bitcoin, across 40+ countries in the Global South. In some places, I succeeded. In others, I failed.

This journey was entirely crowdfunded by the global Bitcoin community. Strangers, fellow Bitcoiners, donated sats and supported me every step of the way. Without their generosity and belief in the mission, none of it would’ve been possible.

Along the way, I met incredible people, hosted meetups, and saw firsthand how Bitcoin can create real world impact, especially in places where financial freedom is needed the most.
