--- layout: cp title: Justin's Local Meetup Talks Proposal #2: April to June author: samsunggalaxyplayer amount: 26 date: June 28, 2017 --- Hey everyone! Justin here. Based on the success of [my first proposal](https://forum.getmonero.org/22/completed-tasks/87610/justin-s-local-meetup-talks-proposal-1-valencia-graz-and-zagreb), I have continued to travel through Europe and speak to others about Monero. With this proposal, I am including travel costs for the following locations where I have already spoken at: - [Warsaw, Poland: April 11](https://www.meetup.com/Warsaw-Bitcoin-Meetup-Group/events/238739999/) - [Riga, Latvia: April 12](https://www.meetup.com/Riga-Bitcoin-Meetup/events/238920812/) - [Wroclaw, Poland: April 13](https://www.meetup.com/Wroclaw-Blockchain-Meetup/events/238876892/) - [Budapest, Hungary: May 12](https://www.meetup.com/BitcoinBudapest/events/239828785/) - [Cologne, Germany: June 5](https://www.meetup.com/Bitcoin-Cologne/events/238950862/) - [Bucharest, Romania: June 15](https://twitter.com/JEhrenhofer/status/875463371826487297) - [Istanbul, Turkey: June 18](https://www.meetup.com/monero-turkey/events/240414046/) - [Dublin, Ireland: June 26](https://www.meetup.com/Bitcoin-Dublin/events/240152422/) I had a really fun time speaking at all these events. You can see PDFs of the used presentations here. Feel free to message me for the PowerPoint versions. You can view some of the recordings [here](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBwW3kFqHdFg72DeOcNQ552W607ATQURq). ### Summary of Costs I would like to allow for donations to cover some of the travel costs that I have incurred in the process of speaking about Monero. I was never paid to speak at any of these locations. Flights, trains, and hotels were the cheapest reasonable options. Warsaw/Riga/Wroclaw: $750 Budapest: $145 Cologne: $380 Bucharest: $330 Istanbul: $325 Dublin: $725 NOT INCLUDED: Edinburgh, UK (Meetup cancelled) Subtotal: $2,655 Minus Difference in Last Proposal's Gains (as promised): $1,612.53 Grand Total: $1,042.47 (asking amount) Asking for 26 XMR. Thank you everyone who donated to the previous proposal, and to those who donate to this one. If all things go according to plan, there should be one more proposal from me around the end of July.
