HELP ME WITH A TINY PUSH TO KEEP MY DREAM ALIVE, SETTLE IN EU

Hello everyone, even you stranger! :)

Thanks for giving a try to read my story and my personal cause of raising this money.

I never thought I would be here, on a platform like this asking people to get empathy for my cause, but here I'm and why not to ask for help and let myself to be supported.

I'm originally from Colombia, I came to the EU two years ago, believing in a dream I always have: get the freedom to live in Europe and create my life here, yes it sounds like the american dream but in Europe, but has nothing to do with the story of an american movie..I just want to live in a place where i feel aligned, where I have better possibilities to create my dreams..

It has been already 2 years and most of the people will think it has been an easy and fabulous path for what they can see on my pics on social media, not that I'm a liar but even if I SAY YES, it has been such an amazing adventure it has been difficult aswell and with obstacles at some parts, like having to switch between countries all the time to get the legal way to stay (paperwork) , getting jobs that did not pay fairly ( because i dont know people or i dont have the same rights bc my visa) , sleeping at friends places, and the list goes on...

Don´t take me wrong I have learned a lot from it and it has been a blessing but with a lot sacrifices and low points.

With all that I still believe and keep working on my dreams like everyone should be, still believe I can find my way to stay in EU; live here legally and do what I love to live; even when it seems impossible at these times.

This is the reason that brought me here today, I asked to the universe for some guidance on what to do at this moment where I'm trying to get up to the surface when the water is almost covering my face, and reaching out for others that help came out....

THIS IS THE STORY:

I have been living in the Netherlands for the last year, but my visa came to end and I finished my job, due to Corona, the option to renovate a visa went to the toilet or finding another job wasn't possible at the moment due to many circumstances..! so it has been a real challenge to get money since I have to depend on my freelancer online work that I'm trying to promote. Due to legal rules because I'm Colombian I had to get out of the Schengen area and come back as a tourist and this took away legal options for me to work here and also gave me only till december to solve my situation here or I have to leave the EU for at least six months (yes this is just bureaucracy and unfair politic laws) Also in de beginning of January I have to leave the Netherlands and I have to find another place to stay.
That´s why my visa is also an issue to resolve at the moment, I'm still trying to find my way to stay here in EUROPE and keep looking for ways to finally settle down here, at the moment my best options are a student visa or freelancer visa but as we all may know, doing anything requires money, and at the moment i dont have the resources to do the things I need to do in order to get the visa, have a home, and keep working on my projects.

THE IDEA IS:

I want to raise a part of the money I need to pay for everything that I need to do for this process and the transition. Not just the visa but getting the conditions (requirements, course fee, paperwork, moving, housing, living expenses, etc) that will allow me to do that and give me some extra time to fight for my dreams.

Maybe you think I don't need this because I am okay physically, and mentally and i can work, but all I can say is: I'm just a girl trying to find my way on this planet and it hasn't been easy due to the conditions i was born with (. nationality, money), when you are born out of the EU, things are different and that is a reality.

I will not say Im desperate, because im not but Im just trying everything that I feel could help me to resolve the situation I am in, and I do appreciate if you can be part and support me.

Thanks again for reading my story and from my heart i do appreciate you for being part of my cause.

LOVE,

JEN
