2020 taught us that we should really cherish the finer things in life. It's been a bit of a train wreck for me personally, having lost my job and my relationship coming to an end.

However, I wanted to turn the negatives into positives. First and foremost, I am a martial arts enthusiast. This is the reason behind my trip to Bali which commences on the 4th of January. I am going over there to settle for as long as possible, while living the life I need to live to master my craft. But why not give back? I decided to complete my TEFL certificate in order to teach adults and children English in foreign lands. I have reached out to numerous Bali groups on Facebook to arrange totally FREE classes once over there, just to keep me busy and give back to a country that is welcoming me in a difficult period. 

This is why I am asking for some help financially. Losing my job has meant I have had no income for 5 months of the year, so I am heading to Indonesia with very little. 

It would mean the world to me to be able to stay for an extended period of time whilst giving back to the community in Bali. 

Many thanks for reading, I hope you all have an amazing Christmas and New Year. 

Joe.
