They helped us to get an American gas bottle filled
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
It‘s the guy (Alvaro) that works at Funda Gas outside the city (see other entries in iOverlander). At Fund Gas itself and at the plant Qhora Qhora nobody would do anything (we tried everything). But than Alvaro showed up and told us to come to his house (this location) where we could fill our US bottle.

Guy wasn’t available when we showed up, but we left the tank there around noon. Was told to return at 6pm to pick it up. 35b to fill from empty.
Just note that a few times after, our stove wouldn’t start. We had to let the gas escape for a while, then wait, then try to start it. Not sure if air got in the tank...
