⚠️URGENT⚠️ #AskNostr
Hey #nostr friends. Desperately need some help from the community.
My family has sadly been forced to leave our beloved home on very short notice due to state-level threats. Looking for some place quiet to rest and recover for a while until we decide our next steps.
Arrived safely in #CostaRica for now but also open to any interesting alternatives that nostriches around the world may be able to offer. Love nature, small villages, rural locations– not too crazy about cities. Have also considered Ecuador, Bali, Laos, Vietnam, Norway/Sweden… the list goes on. Let the universe decide!
Do you have a quiet, private place you could offer us for a few weeks / months? (We are willing to pay in sats!) Do you need a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter / home sitter while you are away for a while? Could you use a couple of hard-working volunteers for an eco project, organic farm or maybe a Bitcoin-based initiative somewhere in the world?
I worked as a travel photographer for about 12 years and have visited nearly 100 countries worldwide. My wife previously worked for a large international cultural organization and has a degree in Cultural Management and Education. We currently run a small scale farm ourselves and both have lots of experience tending both gardens and animals. I also have plenty of experience in landscaping, landscape design, and am willing to tackle any repairs, light carpentry, or home maintenance tasks I could help with. We are very tidy and trustworthy people and will absolutely treat your home or property with utmost respect and care.
Show us what magic nostr can offer! Would very much appreciate any leads, tips, ideas, work trades, etc to consider from the #nostr family in our time of need!

🙏🙏🙏

Thank you 🤙
@npub1g5m0...6u7r is a cheap place to stay in Uvita and they accept bitcoin
🙏🙏🙏 guys, lmk if you might have some ideas or opportunities here in CR 🤙
Thank you 🙏 We have a decent Airbnb for now, hoping to find a slightly longer term solution where we can chill out for a while to recover
There’s a farmers market twice a week in Uvita and once a week in Dominical. Maybe you can find someone there who needs some help with farming. Most people at both farmers markets accept bitcoin.
Excellent, great info to know. Would absolutely love to find a local farm that could use a hand.
Share some of your magic with a pleb please. 🫂💜

Heartbreaking story, but also the beginning of a great new journey. All the best.
We still kickin’ that’s all that matters 💔🤙
How can someone outside of nostr connect with you guys?
That's wild. Hope you guys can figure it out. I'm curious to learn more about the threats causing you to leave?
Shared as well. Be safe my fren. 🙏
Thank you m, very much appreciate it 🙏
Buy a weapon. Be alert. Stay strapped. Fight back.
Better to die fighting on your feet than live a slave on your knees.
Money will only allow you to die wealthy.
Sent you a dm

@The Beave I’m assembling my army 🔫💪
Thank you. Will share more in depth as soon as we are able to safely.
There’s a bit of info here if you look through the threads:
SweetSats
I probably should have specified in the original post, but as a small clarification: the legal issues we are fighting have nothing to do with
@npub1swee...ns6h or running a Bitcoin-based business.
The State has forced us into an untenable situation due to a completely unrelated issue, and as a result we’ve had to take drastic action to protect our family’s physical safety. I will share more specific details as soon as I am able.
Love you all 🩷

Dang, my dude. 🫂💚

Anyone have any leads?

So this affects your business as well quite a bit.
Come to my basement
You seem to prefer death than life, I wonder why is it so.
🫂🐝
I can't help you on this one (except spread the words around), but I hope you'll find a lead.
💋
My friend, i have no extra roof for you. Otherwise the farm would be welcome to you. I know it will work out for you & your family.
✌️💜⚡🫂
Shared. Sending positive vibes to you and your family. 🙏
Malaysia
Yeah we have had to shut down for now until we can find a more permanent solution
Thanks helps thank you 🙏
Thanks 🙏 we’ll get through it
Thanks for the support. I means a lot coming from this community 🧡
One of the few countries I’ve not had an opportunity to visit. Any specific recommendations? What makes it worth checking out?
Take care
@Filou
I know you will grind through this - if there is anyone who can, it is you! Be safe.

💔 thank you. This community gives me so much hope. I know we will make it through but right now in the thick of it things seem so dark and hopeless
Hi. Are you staying at Uvita right now ?
Not yet, planning to come to Uvita and Ojochal at end of the month. Maybe stay in that area for August at least, maybe longer.
Come to South Africa! You can find places here to stay incredibly cheap! DM me if you wanna know locations 🙏
relatively neutral, lower cost of living. many area to stay depending on your needs
we have to part, the peninsular and the borneo.
You misunderstood my post.
If you want to hang out in Michigan for a while, I have a yurt and tiny house you could rent. There are several other Bitcoiners in within an hour or two of me who are interested in hosting other Bitcoiners as well so you might be able to do a little tour of the area too. Michigan has a very strong Bitcoin culture.
I have a house in Sweden, the perfect quiet place in nature.
If it is an option for you, let's talk about it.
Thank you for the offer, this is right up our alley, but unfortunately the US is not a safe place for us at the moment due to the situation. Really appreciate it though 🤙
That sounds beautiful. We have actually considered a few times in the past to relocate to Sweden and have a hobby of checking out little farmhouses in the countryside. Could you DM me so we can chat. Thank you for reaching out!! 🙏
If the threat is state-level, you should probably consider which countries *do not* have an extradition treaty with your country of origin.
Yes we have looked into this and it’s definitely something that we are aware of. Thank you
I wish you all the best.
WOW!!! I’m just seeing this… speechless! Happy you and your family were able to get out 🙏🏽 Let me know if I can help in any way!
Thank you 🙏
you're welcome Filou
Thank you brother, for now just positive vibes. Just kind of reeling right now and not sure where to turn or what to do next 😔
Just saw this brother. Hope everyone is ok. I live in Northeast US, so I wouldn't be of much help on that front. Let me know if there is anything else I can do, or help you with.
Thank you 🙏 yeah, the US is not a safe place for us at the moment 😔
Can I help in some way?
@Prem @The Ben Gunn do you need workers?
If Berlín El Salvador is a possibility for you I've got something right up your street. My DMs are open to you bro.
Yo thank youuu 🙏 I’d love to check out El Salvador, and I’ve heard about the Bitcoin Berlín project. On my radar for sure! 🤙
Big day tomorrow.
Please send all your positive vibes, your GMs, your shakas🤙, your GFYs, your best memes, and as many cat photos as you can possibly find.
Hope to provide a full update soon.
Thank you to everyone for the massive amounts of support and everyone who has reached out.

Shared, and fingers crossed that all will turn well to you and your family! 💐🙏✨
I can only offer a place to park up a caravan on a community on mid north coast Australia.. Sound like you've got much better offers though..
Thank you 🙏
Never been to Australia but always wanted to! 🤙
Daaaaamn!!! How did I miss this. Sorry to hear friend! I hope you figured things out.
🫂🫂
Thanks friend 🫂
Not yet, but we’re working on it. Big day today, that should provide some clarity one way or another. 😑
Not sure if the US is an option for you but hit me up if it is.
Thank you, brother. The US became unsafe for us at the moment unfortunately.
Is New Zealand an option. We have a place that fits the brief 🐑 ⛰️ 🌄
Hey we have now found a safe place to rest and recover for the next couple months here in Costa Rica. But we have always wanted to check out NZ! Feel free to drop me a DM, we re still unsure about what our longer term plans will be.

GM! Look at this BOUNTY ya’ll! 100% nostr, 100% bitcoin… It’s literally a fucking miracle.
Over 5 months ago, we walked out of our door– walked away from our farm, our animals, and the home we had built for the previous five years– not knowing if we would be able to return.
But I kept zapping anyway. Every #ZapSnag. Every time a new bitcoin-based business was sprouting, I wanted to support them. THIS is what a blossoming circular econmy looks like!
No wrapping paper, no pretty bows, no fiat bullshit. Just pure, brilliant PoW from nostriches around the world… all paid for with sats.
A few days ago we made it safely back home and walked into find this amazing pile of boxes.
This is what hope looks like.
21 npubs. 8 countries. One community.
We love you all nostr!!! 🧡
