Carla Chan hasn't added a story.
Hi, I hope you are well (っ˘ω˘ς ) . Today I have decided to tell you my story and I must say that I do it as a last resourse; so when you go forward on the text, I hope you can understand me.
My name is Carla (⌒▽⌒)☆ , I'm 30 years old, and now I'm finishing my career as a sociologist. I live in a city called Cumana on the state of Sucre, in Venezuela. It is a warm, small and simple city where I have spent all these years of my life and where I can’t be anymore.
Today, my country is living a terrible political, economic and social situation, I think its not a secret for no body, because we have the eyes of the world focused here. Maybe you have heard something about it, let me tell you something all the press says about our reality, its nothing, becasue our reality is much worse than the media reports, and i live it daily. My country has sunk so much in the laziness and poverty, as a result of bad funds administration, for that it has become see people rummaging in the trash to try to get something to bring of their mouths, even you can see children, eating from the trash. I find it hard to talk about my land, my people, my world, but I just try to you to can visualize what we see every day on our streets and maybe you can understand the reason why you are reading this.
I have taken one of the most difficult decisions in my life. For 3 months I have been working so hard to get out of this country. I was planning to do so at the end of November of this year, but due to the madness of the ruling party to want make changes in our Constitution to establish once for all a Communist State, eliminating the Republic, I’ll feel forced to make the decision to expedite my trip to leave my country in August, because I know, I feel in the deep of my heart, if they approving the constitutional reform, Ill be trapped inside this country, Without future, no possibility of progress, no opportunities to have a decent life, living in misery, knowing that every day is more difficult to find some food , scarcity, hyper inflation and insecurity are uncontrollable, I dont see any kind of Future in my country.
Here I managed to make my own business, but due to food shortages and insecurity I was forced to give up it, because wasn't profit-earning, only generated losses. It was a small business, product of illusion and dreams, my love of work and cook, but in Venezuela its so hard continue it.
Honestly, never was my intention ask for help from others, I'll dont depend of my parents, my mother pass away when i was teenager, and my father does not live with me, not counting I am an only child of my parents , and I dont see my family from a long time ago. so i only have to myself, sincerely is not easy for me do this, ask for help to strangers. I thought could do it alone but I cant do this anymore, I know that i give the best of me, but that is not enough in my country and less with the dollar increase in recent weeks (a devaluation of our currency that continues to grow in steps gigantic). I'm planing move to Argentina, settle there and be able to restart my little assian food business. But, i need get out here before the government's policies manage stop the people migration leaving me locked up, isolated and hopeless to restard my life
So today I need your help, please support me to get the money that i need to gather and to be able to scape from here. Any amount that you can help me with will be well received and maybe for you it will be small, but for me mean a better future fo me and my nearly friends, because i hope become a bridge for them between venezuela and argentina.
Thanks for read me .
