I would be interested in traveling to Toronto for ICANN45.

I am currently assisting Marie-Laure Lemineur with the detailed Toronto programming. Furthermore, I will be handling the written questions that will be addressed during NPOC's sessions and also handling all NPOC's wiki spaces.

Personally, I would like to attend because I consider it a great opportunity to meet the bright minds behind the Internet and also potentially learn things that are bit difficult to transmit online.

Please note that I am a Romanian citizen, therefore I need a visa for Canada. Should my participation be approved, I will need an official invitation from ICANN, that I can present at the embassy during the visa procedures. Moreover, if travel arrangements are cheaper from London (UK) or Hamburg (DE), I am willing to cover the costs from The Hague to either London or Hamburg.

David, thank you for the opportunity.

Should you need additional information, please do not hesitate to contacting me.

Kind regards,

Andrei Barburas
