This is such wonderful news! even so close to Steemfest, you still manage add more speakers to the the event! at this point i dont even wanna have any expectations becuase you're just gonna blow it all through the roof and then some more!
It's a whooping 12 thousand plus kilometers from where i am, so grateful and humbled that the people of Steemit are so generous to give people like a chance to actually attend the place. with the subsidies and the possibility to claim the miles.
It's why i took that leap that personally whats impossible for me to attend this year's Steemfest. Steemit makes the impossible a reality.
If all goes well, next year I want to be one of the people to give back to t-r-f and make the impossible of other's become a reality.
