It has been a busy time for the Wandering w/ Purpose publication. The recent launch of our crowd-funding campaign for the Bitcoin Nakawa project ignited a promising new chapter on our journey. I'm currently writing to you from Mozambique, but eagerly await soon making the trip to reconnect with the Nakawa family in Zambia.
More Bitcoin Nakawa project updates and Wandering w/ Purpose stories and articles are soon to come. We sincerely hope you've been enjoying our content! Be sure to follow our activity on Stacker News.

Announcing another Wandering w/ Purpose project

As enthusiastic as we are about Bitcoin Nakawa, we have even more news to share with you.
We love writing to you about our adventures on the road through Africa. We've received incredible feedback, and want to do everything we can to bring you along for the ride.
This is why we are introducing an audio component to the Wandering w/ Purpose community. Sometimes you just can't replace hearing directly from the voices of the inspiring individuals we tend to meet. We want you to experience what we hear and feel. We want you to wander with us and feel inspired, too.
So, without further ado, allow me to introduce Wandering w/ Purpose's newest project, the Afrika Ascending Podcast.

This is Afrika Ascending

I was drawn to Africa for a few reasons. I'm overflowing with gratitude because it wasn't long ago that I felt like this was a far away dream. Today, I spent the day hiking barefoot through villages and mangrove forests along an estuary here in Mozambique. I'm blessed.
Nature is definitely a part of why I was drawn to Africa. I'm also exploring family roots and researching the state of money and technology on the continent. If it weren't for learning how to write online, I wouldn't have been able to blend these themes of my life into one grand adventure. To have the opportunity to explore Africa on my own terms has been a gift.

A key lesson

After almost two years, I'm learning a key new lesson: to trust the flow and learn from the people around me.
Africa has it's own rhythm. If you don't roll with the punches, you're going to exhaust yourself very quickly. Its a challenging place. Many people struggle, but many have learned how to live a beautiful life here. I started wanting to find the people who have learned to flourish in Africa, and share what I learn from them.
I've been leading my own adventure here. The motorcycle gave me the autonomy and practical means to explore across the expanses of Southern Africa. I needed to go rogue for a while. I needed to go "bush" to connect a part of myself with the land. Those days on the road are precious to me. It didn't matter if I connected with anyone during that time. Despite this, the road has always been a consistent source of colourful characters.
Now I feel the drive to connect with people. Now I think I can spread some valuable knowledge and experiences. When we learn from each other, then we compound our ability to collaborate and build community. As a community, I think we can help a lot of people.
This is why I started Wandering w/ Purpose, and this is why we started the Afrika Ascending Podcast. I'm just one among many who have a vision for how life can flourish in Africa. I typically meet visionary people out of serendipity, teaching me a lot about myself and about how I can improve my skills for life in this world. I think our conversations can be of interest to you.
There's also one question I like to ask my guests. What is the most important thing Africa needs to succeed?
You might be surprised by what people say...
Sometimes Africa can make me feel like abundance is 1000 years away, but some days I feel like it's just around the corner. Living day by day is the name of the game in Africa, but I can't help but overflow with optimism at times. The inspiring people on our podcast keep my optimism topped up. I hope they can do the same for you.
Earlier this week I sent the first episode of the Afrika Ascending Podcast to all our free Wandering w/ Purpose subscribers. I hope everyone received it fine and was able to have a listen. All free subscribers get one free preview of the podcast, but please consider upgrading your subscription for access to our full collection of conversations.
On that note, we will soon be announcing a special new offer, and our free subscribers are going to be the first to hear about it. We want to do what we can to get you involved, so we hope you like what we come up with ;)
We hope to have you along on our adventure and invite you to wander with us and feel inspired.
This is Wandering w/ Purpose, this is Afrika Ascending.

P.s. I'm not a big fan of subscriptions so I would rather offer one up-front payment (discount if paid in Bitcoin) for lifetime access to our content. Any comments on this would be highly appreciated.
