[Cidrz] [ict4dclass] finalizing outstanding deliverables

[Gari Clifford]

Hi Daniel,

I was just trying to get Jhonatan and estimate of the cost of this trip.
That's great that CIDRZ will cover the accommodation (I'm OK with any level
of housing - shared with other interns or workers is fine), so we just need
to work out what sort of transport and food costs there are.
Do you have an estimate for any of these?

many thanks,

Gari
