This was a tough one to write.... So here it goes. I have never asked a community for financial help but I'm taking a leap of faith and made a Go Fund Me account. I would certainly prefer crypto donations!
So this is whats going on with me:
I can't afford rent and having difficulty finding a good job living near Portland, Oregon. So lets make the best of it and just move somewhere better right? I want to live in Colorado! I want to make this lemon of a past year into lemonade.
Up until now:
I have been renting and caretaking for my friends 10 acre property. Rent is 3,200 a month and jobs do not pay enough to compensate Portlands Extreme gentrification. My friend/landlord has been so kind and understanding about my lack of finances. I need to move by Febuarary 15th because I have not been able to pay rent the last couple months. I want to get to him at least $1000 before I go. I don't want him to fall to far behind on his mortage payments. I need money to get started in Colorado. This will be a huge change for me but I think a smart move.
The future plan:
Get to Colorado. Rent in Colorado is by far better prices then here. I am finding promising job opprotunities there. I have several friends that have already moved to the four corners and will provide a supportive community. I don't have the support system here in Portland anymore because they moved to more affordable areas!
And lastly I want you to know the who I am:
I am skilled a gardener and landscaper, I propagate and sell plants as a part of my income. My current job pursuits are in the trades, I recently graduated the Oregon Tradeswomen program.
I am a caregiver. I caregive for my friend who is in her 80's. However that job is fading, she needs less help from me since she has moved to intensive care.
I am a jeweler. I bead jewelry and when I can I put energy into my etsy account.

I am a volunteer member of the Portland Strike Debt community and chair of Friends of Occupy Portland. We have lobbied for student debt forgiveness and hold a non-profit status that the local organized houseless camps refer to for political legitimacy.
I am an entrepenuer. I have been tutoring people in cryptocurrency basics. I do prefer crypto currency donations!
@portiajay
Long story short I put myself out into the world to make it a better place!

Join us for co-creative learning experience and entrepreneur opportunities. Geothermal greenhouses, Earthships and tee-pees, the sky is the limit. All profits are equally dispersed. Onward and upward! Live free on our land in return for your sweat equity. BOOM. http://.oppenheimerranch.org were on facebook and everywhere else. Hit me up.
Wowza! 🔥 I have plans to stay at my friends 15 minutes outside of Durango. If you all are hiring I would be happy to drop off an application!!!
And then we could tell the world you hired someone through Steemit! 💗😊
I find it extremely ironic, the way we nomad around as time goes onward... I want to buy a crypto house and live across the street from you!
Air B&B crypto houses everywhere and we just rotate around the world as we please!
In my perfect little mandela universe, you would move to CO before I move away from there! LOL... I need to get more in sync with your wavelength...
