Hello, I'm Andres. I've been on a bit of a journey over the past few years. I've been sofa-surfing for the last 8 months. I've been trying to find sustainable work, but it's been a struggle. I'm looking to work full time and I'm not afraid of hard work, I just need a bit of help to get back on my feet.
One of the things that keeps me going is my love for writing. I've been journaling for over 3 years and have filled more than 10 notebooks with my experiences. I'd love to write a book one day. The biggest challenge I've faced is enduring long periods of homelessness, grappling with feelings of worthlessness and unlovability as people reject you without understanding the reasons behind it. But I'm resilient and proud of my bravery.
My goal with Beam is to receive assistance during this transition period, where I've secured a job but lack the resources to cover expenses such as food, transportation, work attire, and phone bills. I'm motivated by the hope that there are people willing to support me and help me succeed. Knowing that people want to support me gives me hope in humanity and motivates me to contribute to society as well. I'm grateful to Beam and the generous individuals who donate to my page. In 2 years time, I want to live a peaceful, simple and calm life where I can have the job I want to, where I can be part of the society and contribute to others as much as I can.
