Episode #51 Bitcoins in Bali!

Episode #51: Bitcoins in Bali!

On today’s show I interview Gary Dykstra a Detroit transplant living in Indonesia on the beautiful island of Bali. Gary tells us about Bitcoin in Bali and how it’s now possible to vacation in Bali and spend only Bitcoins. We get an update on the Ubud weekly meetup and we learn about the BitIslands.com social experiment going on right now. Gary also tells us about late night parties, monkeys that will steal your sunglasses and off road motorcycling through the jungle.
