Health Care for Markus & Marga
Donation protected
Markus K and Marga Fernández have been entertaining fans all over the world with their music and music videos for many years.
Markus is a busker and plays on the street for money. Marga makes videos for social media such as YouTube and Facebook, usually around 10 to 15 per month.
They live from the tips they receive from people on the street, during their busking sessions. They also sell CDs and USB sticks, on the street and via Bandcamp.
Yes, it’s a dream come true, a wonderful way to travel doing what you love. But there is a downside to this way of life.
The income from busking and album sales is unpredictable and only pays for the bare minimum. If Markus doesn’t find a good place for busking, they don’t eat. If they do well, they spend that extra money to travel to another country. This keeps the videos more interesting too.
There is never anything extra for healthcare. They do their best to stay rested and to eat healthy, but that’s not always easy when you are traveling. Their many years on the road are taking their toll on many levels.
Markus urgently needs dental care and they both need new glasses. Aches and pains are starting to trouble them more with time.
Right now, they are in Australia, looking for a way to fund their travel to India. The cost of living in India is much lower, and healthcare is of a very high standard. Dental surgery and glasses are much more affordable. There are also many excellent Ayurvedic clinics, for a complete detox and for natural supplements, to help rejuvenate their travel-worn bodies.
Will you help them get back on track, give them what they desperately need after so many years of traveling with minimum income?
India is also a beautiful location to create new videos, and of course, they will be keeping you updated about their experiences along the way!
Every donation helps, whatever the amount!
Here is what they need:
- Flights from Melbourne to Visakhapatnam in India: 600 pounds (extremely good deal right now!) - Actual cost incl. equipment: 700 pounds DONE!
- Dental surgery for Markus: 1300 pounds (still looking)
- Eye glasses for both: 400 pounds (still looking)
- Pancha Karma at an Ayurvedic clinic, using all natural oils and herbs: 1000 pounds - Actual cost incl. 1 month of ayurvedic medicines: 600 pounds
Total: 3300 pounds - Adjusted: 3000 pounds
2023 looks to be a particularly eventful year, with a good number of special concerts, including supporting Buddy Guy at the prestigious Blues Passions in Cognac, France.
Your help will make sure they are ready to make the best of it and to keep creating videos to take you with them on their adventures.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. All donations, whatever the amount, are extremely welcome and appreciated!
Your Markus K & Marga Fernández
