Hey, so there it is, better late than never maybe. In the future it might get multi-lingual t.me/EBTecotopiabiketour This channel is notoriously late, chaotic, neglected. It’s actually better to come check out than to read. Smtms we don’t have enough internets (or electricity), sometimes too much of it, and anyway it’s mostly meant as ‘counter’ to ‘social’ media.
…And why bother so much with preparing, btw? You’re not gonna regret it and you’ll have better time and less worries.
