So, here’s the deal.
Jed (the editor) and I (Brian) are heading down to NYC this weekend to attend TBX (the Travel Blog Exchange). Well not attend really since we didn’t get tickets, but at least hit up all the parties and lunches. Anyway, point being that we do not actually have a place to stay. That’s where the awesome friends part comes in. If you live in NYC have an extra couch or floor you don’t mind us using Friday and Sat night and are a fan of new friends, well then, drop us a line (brian@jetsetzero.tv).
Here are things that we’ve got going for us as guests:
- Not sketchy
- Awesome
- Filled with stories of adventure
- Courteous, Polite, and well mannered
- We will bring a couple six packs of tasty beer or a bottle of wine for you as a token of appreciation (your choice!)
Pretty good deal if I do say so myself.
As time is of the essence, let us know soon (brian@jetsetzero.tv).
Your new friends! (Brian: Left, Jed: Right)
Matt Robinson
We learned today via
Korea Beat of an American hospitalized in Seoul, who is currently being denied the surgery he desperately needs because of his rising medical bills.
Matt Robinson, an expat teacher, recently had a bacterial infection excised from his leg. Now, he is struggling with complications from the medication, surgery and a pre-existing deep-vein thrombosis. The hospital has determined that closing the gaping wound in his leg is an “elective plastic surgery”, and, given his 16,000,000W medical bill (~$13,000.00 USD), they have refused to treat him without full payment upfront.
Because of Matt’s recent patella injury, we are all too aware of the fear one feels in a foreign hospital. We will divert any donations we receive toward helping Matt Robinson pay down his medical bills and raise the funds he needs for surgery. We urge you to donate here, or by clicking the green donation button at the top of our website. Please stay tuned for more updates as they become available. Click through to read the details of Matt’s predicament from his fundraising Facebook group.
