A long time ago in this Galaxy, here, right now....

...I started a blog to help with my fund-raising effort.

Where to start... well guess you might be here due to the GoFundMe page! Yay if you are!

Thanks for popping in!

Ok so here is the down-low in a nutshell: (I wonder how many clichés I can fit in one sentence?)

Lived a long time in New Zealand, moved to Australia (my home country) to continue my career after working really hard as a student to become a Commercial Pilot. I DID IT!

Things didn't go so smoothly with the move, as my pride and joy daughter didn't adjust very well, so in order to keep us both sane, I decided that to look after her, and focus on her that would be my prime directive for as long as needed!... She started adjusting after a while, which was awesome.

Meanwhile in financial reality land things were looking pretty grim as I had been a student for years (after previously providing for us with a job in Information Technology). There was a special moment which was a little hard, lets just put it that way, and during that time, I had a profound dream, I kid not!... it was huge!! in it my long lost love come to me and said he was waiting for me.

Don't click close! I decided after 12 years to try and find him... long and seriously complex search later, I did, and he said, I've been waiting for you! Swooooon!

Three weeks later via skype we were engaged! ...and then (and there is a huge story in-between too by the way), I decided it was well overdue to be with him, and sold everything that was left, and moved to London. It truly is my personal epic love story that I could only dream of coming true.

So we are here still in London, but wouldn't you know it, all of the most incredible people in my world decided to get married! People who have supported me through thick and thin, supported my move, and generally BEEN there for me no matter what... I owe them big time.

Here is where you come in and why I decided to 'attempt' to write a blog... I'm still a student, not legally allowed to work in the UK due to the Visa I am on, my LOML (Love Of My Life) has used almost all of his savings getting me here, and providing for me and my daughter... and we simply cant figure out a way, without fund-raising to be able to be there for those that mean so much...

So without any further adieu for now, pop back to the GoFundMe page, make a donation if you are able, and know that my eternal gratefulness, and experiences will live on in you!
