Hi to you reading this, thankyou for taking the time.. Having had a house fire back home in England which destroyed my space and possessions. I decided to travel through a volunteer site working for my food and accommodation. Im currently in South America and have been here 2 months. I was volunteering in Peru and after a month of being there, I was woken up in the night by two men and threatened at knife point to get dressed, I thought I was going to get kidnapped! I can't express enough the fear I felt! As I was getting dressed the men searched through my room. I screamed for help and tried running out of the door. They grabbed me, one with his hands over my face and the other around my neck. I couldn't breath and honestly thought that was it. They found my bag, took my money and left. Leaving me with a nose bleed, cuts on my face, a little bruised body and a massive trauma! I couldn't stay at the retreat centre, and I needed to get out of Peru, i was so scared. I came to my next planned workaway host 2 months early in Brazil. But it's hard going and I'm crumbling a little. I need to heal from what I've gone through and this place isn't conducive for that. I made a budget and would have been ok had it not been for the attack, not only taking my money but also the flight to Brazil was twice as expensive because I booked it for the following day. After what I went through in Peru all I wanted was to go back to be with my son but the flight cost was ridiculous back to England .I could only afford to get to Brazil. I had a paid position planned here after 3 months of volunteering which would have bought my flight home. However now I feel stuck. I have no support back in England and someone told me about this site so I'm hoping this is my way out. If you feel called to help me with as much or as little as you can please help. Thankyou for reading and for any financial support you can give me. I really appreciate you are looking to support others. ❤️✨
