Help with expenses for new job commencement

Hi everyone, Luna here (some might know me as Bradly). I'll get right to it: I've spent the past six years doing freelance work, scraping by to try and build a life in Australia, but have encountered trouble at every turn. Despite submitting hundreds of applications, regular work has been unattainable for me the entire time. Full stop, I cannot get hired. On top of that, the rapid inflation and skyrocketing rent in this country has left many uncertain of future prospects, and I am no exception. Left with no other options, I decided to apply to work as an assistant language teacher in Japan again for 2025, and successfully secured a position.

For now, the only hurdle left is to actually get there. With my sparse income and conditions worsening everyday, and my wife managing chronic pain and other health issues, I am finding it a challenge to save the amount needed to smoothly transition to my new job in Japan. Once there, I will be able to live within my means with a stable flow of income and a daily cost of living that simply does not exist here in Australia.

I'm asking for any amount to get some relief and make this move possible. As it stands, if I have one more rent increase in Australia, I wont be able to get by and if I can't get back to Japan, I don't know where I will end up. This is my only shot left. It pains me to offload my burdens onto other people. But even if it's only some spare change, you will have my eternal gratitude.

Thank you for reading my story.
