Hello everyone, My name is Callum Kaczynski, and I’m reaching out during a deeply challenging chapter of my life. After a long and difficult journey from Egypt, my dog and I have made it all the way to Scotland with one mission in mind: to return home to our family in Mexico. That has always been the goal. We are so close now but we need your help to complete this final stretch.

 The truth is, I’ve been battling severe depression, PTSD, and the heavy toll of constant instability. These past two months of couch surfing have left me physically drained and emotionally raw. I’m doing my best to keep going, but being in Perth without a vehicle or steady housing has made job hunting incredibly hard. I’m currently without electricity and can’t even afford basic groceries.

 Scotland is where I experienced much of the pain that I’ve worked so hard to heal from. It is not my mirror, not my home, and despite my forgiveness, it is not where I belong. Healing for me is only possible in the presence of my community, and that community exists in Mexico and Egypt, places where I’ve spent years building bonds, finding purpose, and being loved.

I believe in the power of community over depending on government systems that have failed me time and again. I still believe in people. I’m not here to beg or guilt anyone I simply ask, if you feel moved, to offer whatever support you can, whether through prayer, conversation, a share, a donation, or helping me stay housed and fed as I get back on my feet.

Thank you to every person who has helped me so far. Your kindness has kept me going. If you’re reading this and feel moved to reach out, I would deeply appreciate your fellowship right now. I’m holding on to hope and faith that we will complete this journey, my dog and I, together and return to the family we’re meant to be with.

 With gratitude and love,

Callum Kaczynski
