Hopes, Aspirations & Dreams

Donation protected
To everyone who views this page, who wants to donate and even to those who are thinking about it...

I am the eldest of 6 kids and a family of 8. I love media, photography, film and travelling.
I graduated from University last year and ever since, a lot has happened to me and my family.
As a family, we got evicted and have been moving from house to house ever since.
Last year, there was an opportunity to travel from November to January; which I have just returned from.

This wonderful experience was an eye-opener for me and really made proof of my childhood dream which is to travel the world. But not only that, I would also like to study and work abroad.

I don't know how I'm going to get there because of the insufficient funds, but I'm still going to hold this dream dear to my heart.

I have not been able to be successful or content in standard jobs; working to the best of my ability but still falling short every time. I realised that's not the place for me to be. I don't want to be in one place at any given time because there is so much more for me to do.

I want to be able to provide for my family as they (as well as myself) have been through a lot. I want to donate to charity and visit under-developed countries to help the less fortunate children in this world.

I want to be able to give.

I found great opportunities for work & study in the US and so that is where I am looking to go by the end of this year around my 23rd birthday to further my skills and kick-start my career. I love photography, possibly because I studied it in university. But I would like to broaden my skills into the area of film and television.
I have found a course in America that will help me learn more about this.
I too would like to publish my own books one day in which I am raising funds for also as I enjoy writing.
Please visit my website at: www.thoughtsexpressedinwords.com to view some of the work I have done.

If you are interested, please donate to my cause and for those that do; I will be truly grateful for your contribution. The money will be put to good use and I will remember those that have helped when I am on my travels.

Thanks in advance for your support. God Bless you all for reading and your help!
