<p> The adventure is (almost) over. I&#39;ve been back in Germany since Saturday, after more than 100 days of travelling. Until now, <strong><a href="http://afriqueallerpassimple.com/les-reportages-the-reports/" target="_blank">8 reports have been broadcasted</a></strong>, 32 posts published <a href="http://afriqueallerpassimple.com/" target="_blank">on the blog</a>, for more than 7.000 page views.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> The experience has met my expectations. It has been exhausting but I learnt a lot and I was able to get more ideas for future reports. I&#39;ll keep you updated.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> For now, you can start looking on the blog <strong>for the pictures you would like to get</strong>. I&#39;ll have them printed as soon as enough people tell me which one they want. I still have a few posts to publish about Cameroon, Namibia and South Africa, so keep an eye open.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Once more: <strong>THANK YOU VERY MUCH!</strong> This trip would not have been possible without your support.</p>
<p> Dear KissBankers, your 3.100 euros have been transfered today. Thanks to all of you ! For your information, KissKissBankBank <strong>kept 5% of this amount</strong> + 3% bank charges... So I actually got about 2.850 euros</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> I&#39;ll be glad to have your comments and reactions to <a href="http://afriqueallerpassimple.com" target="_blank">the blog posts</a> and <a href="http://afriqueallerpassimple.com/les-reportages-the-reports/" target="_blank">reports</a>.</p>
<p> The funding is now complete! And more than a month before the deadline. Thank you vvery very much to the 65 (and now 66) KissBankers who were convinced enough to participate. I hope you are able to follow the trip. I arrived yesterday in Bouak&eacute;, Ivory Coast. See you soon!</p> <p> <img alt="Progression_kkbb" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/49275/Progression_KKBB.JPG" /></p>
