News!
1. A contest to solve two problems!
This week's contest winners were @helgapn and @wiseagent (I'll post screenshots on the comments section). Thanks to everybody that resteemed the post and got a chance to win!
Unfortunately the market isn't really looking great and STEEM fell A LOT. The payout was very low :( I'm just out of ideas on what to do in order to draw whale's attention to this contest.
We keep on going with the contest. As you can see below, our SP payout was enough to sponsor another SBI share!
How do you win? Just resteem this post. No other rules. Just resteem.
2. Last week's payout
So, things weren't great with the last post's payout. The rewards were 0.743 SBD, 0.192 STEEM and 0.599 STEEM POWER.
SP balance
We had a total of 2.803 SP.
This week's payout made the total of 3.402SP.
Each SBI share costs 1 STEEM.
This means our SP balance is now 1.402SP. Enough for another SBI share!
Donations
@simplymike donated some very very useful 3 SBD!
@tmarisco also donated 1 SBD last week :)
STEEM and SBD balance
This means our balance is now:
@sisou account - 6.325 SBD; 0.233 STEEM and 0.712 SP
@zpedro account - 0.690 SP
You'll say this is now much. And that's true, it's not much. But I really hope this new contest thing will help.
3. Luggage problems
We're also facing a problem regarding the extra luggage. It costs about 40 SBD (60€) just to carry another bag with us. It seems like a waste of SBD, and as you see we don't have a lot of SBD. So we will abandon the idea of buying stuff here and focus on buying local and giving those things to the kids. That way our SBD stays in the country thus helping the economy as well.
São Tomé e Príncipe
I don't have much time to write about São Tomé e Príncipe now, so I'll just leave a picture of the bridge that leads to the "Bom Bom" islet. No one lives there, but it's a place full of tourism resorts, nice beaches and nature.

I personally don't have anything against tourist resorts, and I'll be staying some nights on those. Tourism helps keeping the economy moving and working and contributes a lot for the economical health. But they don't really produce stuff, and the country still imports a lot of it's food and other resources.
That's it for today! Please if you have any questions regarding this project, read this post

Great initiative @zpedro! I wish you all the best with it. Of course, I already knew you, but @cicisaja is really raising awareness about your contest and shared some info on the #payitforward contest as well.
Wow, steemit is a small world :) I really hope @cicisaja wins both the #payitforward AND this post's contest, but this one is a lottery so we can only hope for it.
Thank you so much! We're making lots os progresses and efforts here but the steem price isn't helping. I hope it raises its value before the end of the fundraising (last week of June)!
I hope she does also. Anything to help my "superstar" friend @cicisaja. :)
I won both the contest😄 and thanks for your support✋
I am going to send all the bounty i received from the contest to your project.
Thank you!
I won it both.. too bad that one other shares already purchased, so the only thing I can do.. sending all the bounty and payout from that post to @sisou as you said before @zpedro.

Well said! :) And thank you for that and the prize for resteeming! :)
I just had another idea... Maybe it won't be much but as I lived there and my dad was born there what do you think if I write a post (or more) about my experience there and my thoughts and all the post payouts I transfer for your @sisou account?!
That would be great! I'd sure help, resteem and thank you very much :)
Actually you just gave me an idea. A long-term solution for the @sisou account once this fund raising is complete and delivered. Collecting delegations and upvoting/incentivizing charity posts and fundraisings on steemit :)
Resteemed! Small things like pencils, crayons, tshirts are more or less easy to carry and appreciated by locals; just a few ideas. All the best, hope this gets the attention it deserves!
Yes, those are things we're definitely carry with us. Minding to not include plastics since garbage collection is non-existent!
True! So many things we can do nowadays to diminish our ecological footprint 😉

Hello @zpedro, I saw your post from @cicisaja.
I want to help, but, I think resteeming is not the best way to help, so, I "virtually resteemed" your post:

This is also an invitation to #ccc.
All the best!
