I’m pretty excited as I have never been anywhere outside N. America. And I am very interested in doing work in less-developed regions of the world especially related to sustainable design.  Since I had such a great experience using kickstarter to raise money for BBgum Fusion, I decided to give it a shot to help cover some of the travel costs.  Most of the prizes will be gathered either in Nairobi or around the hospital itself so that’s pretty cool.  I always like exploring markets for handmade goodies.
