Travel

We aren't in any hurry to buy another van, but we've been slowly compiling items for our next build, whenever that is.

✅ Diesel Heater
✅ Microwave
✅ Fridge/Freezer
✅ Bathroom stuffs
✅ TV (on the fence with this)

We currently have a 2000 Chevy Express 3500 with a High Top.  We love it and it's been an incredible van.  We opted to go with this style over a newer sprinter because of the places we like to go.  We almost always take the roads less traveled and these can often lead to scratches, dents, and dings.  We didn't want to spend 50k on a van that we'd be upset getting scratched.  Also, pretty much any mechanic shop is able to fix anything within a day or so and not have to wait on parts.

With that being said, I'm going to contradict myself, we are considering a sprinter style van for the next one.  It definitely won't be a new one, probably an old work van or something.  

I recently asked my guy @cristianisbased.eth on what vans handle the best in weather, wind, heavy loads, etc.  He provided some excellent feedback and am weighing in on his feedback while browsing vans.

Nice! Thats interesting to know on the fuel. Appreciate you answering my questions. 

I understand in finding the right style and I’m intrigued on what u guys do finally decide. Have fun for sure 🤙

Our van would be a gasoline van, the heater we have is just a diesel heater that runs off its own separate tank.  They're very affordable and pretty cheap to run. 

If we decided to go with a TV on our next build, it would probably be mainly used as a monitor for work on the road.  Currently we just used a laptop for all of our TV needs, works well.

Really we are just trying to decide the style of van we'd like and finding "the right one"

That’s cool 

Im assuming the van will be diesel ran. If so, what is driving that decision to run a diesel rig and not unleaded. Or maybe even a LPG setup.

Agreed- tv is a hit or miss. I assume it would take up space that can be used differently. A large screen laptop or MacBook would work and be multifunctional imo.

Dear friend, we are planning a Tech Summer program for Africa kids for age 8-15. the aim is to bring Africa kids onchain by giving them tech skill.

We are looking at onboarding 20-30 Africa kids at the age of 8-15 onchain this summer by giving them tech skill in Web development, Graphic design and Photography. We are patterning with a school in Akwa ibom state Nigeria.

The budget is $200-$1500, the fund will cover the facilitator fee, Facility fee and logistics.

Pleas support us in identifying tech talent in Africa at a young age as we nurture them into becoming great onchain builders.
