Hello Cylvia!



I discussed with our director your possible visit. He is very supportive of you coming to share stories of change and green economy and ocean acidification :-)



We can cover your local costs (hotel and food) if you are able to make a stop. As I mentioned in our Skype, I would also work to try to organizes a public event during your stay….I’m thinking possibly a local school and municipal officials looking for ideas and experience to be shared.



I’ll hold off until you are able to confirm whether or not you can make it.



Just for trip logistic purposes, our local airport is KRS (for Kristiansand).



Fingers crossed!!

Yannick
