For the past year, I’ve been trapped living in survival mode.
What started as lifestyle travel with my sugar daddy/fiancé turned into life changing instability.
After abandoning my dog and I in Thailand with no warning due to his legal troubles back home, I’ve been stuck on tourist visas, homeless and shifting accommodation every 2-3 nights, trying to earn enough just to get through each day, barely able to prepare for each coming week.
I’ve constantly had no safe place to stay, and everything I do is focused on immediate survival - food, shelter, and safety.
Through all of this, I’ve held onto the one brightness in my life, my animals.
My dog and our rescue cat are fully vaccinated, neutered and cared for, they’ve been my only real stability through everything.
I recently tried to return to the UK to properly reset and rebuild. I was born there and have the passport and right to live, but I was declined welfare and wasn’t able to secure support or a base in time. The cost of staying without stability was too high, and I was forced back into the same cycle again.
I don’t want to keep living like this. I can’t.
So I’m asking for help, and I want to be completely transparent about what that looks like.
I’ve mapped out three realistic paths forward:
Option A - Return to the UK (My Priority)
This is my preferred option. It would allow me to rebuild in a stable environment with structure, safety, and long term opportunity.
Funds would go towards:
- Safe relocation for my dog and cat (flights, crates, vet clearance)
- My travel back to the UK
- 2–3 months of rent and basic living costs
- Initial setup so I can stabilise and work
Estimated total: £12,000 - £15,000
Option B - Build a Mobile Life & Work in Laos (Second Choice)
I have an option to return to Laos, where despite the dangerous encounters i experienced last time, the cost of living is much lower and I already have a work visa.
With a vehicle, I would be able to travel there with my animals, create a stable base, and rebuild while documenting the journey.
Funds would go towards:
- A reliable vehicle or basic camper setup
- Travel and border costs
- Initial living and setup expenses
Estimated total: £6,000 - £9,000
Option C - Stay in Thailand (Fallback Stability)
If the other options aren’t possible, this would allow me to at least stop living day to day and secure a stable base while I work.
Funds would go towards:
- Long-term visa
- Rent paid upfront
- Basic living expenses while I stabilise income
Estimated total: £4,000 - £6,000
I will move forward with whichever option becomes realistically achievable based on the support raised.
Right now, I’m asking for a chance to get out of survival mode and into something stable, safe, and sustainable - without losing my animals in the process.
If you can donate, share, or support in any way, it genuinely makes a difference.
Thank you for reading and for being part of helping me rebuild.
