Bought tickets to Canada🍁Need some help❗
a year ago
Hello my darlings!💖💖💖
Oh well, I did it! Now I have tickets!✈️Going to Canada on February 18❗ So if you plan to drink with me, free up your schedule :)
Better closer to March, because I will need acclimatization, study the routes and a bit of bureaucratic hell. And then Lioness will become the queen of all the nearest bars, hooray!👑🍺🔥
As I said, flying to Canada is very expensive😭
And also to Poland, because the nearest airports are only there. I bought all the tickets I needed, including the return. Because guess what! A one-way ticket costs exactly the same as a two-way ticket. Wow... I originally planned to save a lot and even found a one-way ticket that costs some ridiculous $300. There were even several options for such tickets with different countries for transfers. I'm a risky girl (at unexpected moments), so I seriously considered three transfers and four different airports as a possible option. It was cheap, and I can return when I want (or when fiancé’s relatives will get tired of me). But speaking of relatives... I couldn't go without gifts, and what I was planning to take is not exactly what I can take with me on board the plane. My fiancé, Alex, strongly convinced me that the plan to travel with only a backpack and carry-on wasn't a very good idea. And then I also thought about where I would put my heavy winter clothes when I return home in the warm spring. I also have a lot of beautiful festive outgoing outfits, and my makeup bag... oh gosh, it's like carry-on size.
So I agreed to the idea of including checked baggage in the ticket, which multiplies its cost by 2. Uh…
Other nuances related to the incompatibility of the proposed flights. It looks like there should be plenty of time for the transfer. But this is in theory. Different airlines, unrelated to each other, can't do anything if even one of my flights is delayed or canceled. A separate check-in is required for each of these flights, including for baggage. I would have to carry a huge bag everywhere and throw it between a bunch of planes by myself. And if I don't do at least one online check-in on time, they can extort even more money from me. Turns out that sometimes there can be a separate fee for check-in at the airport. Airports are some damn mafia... Too many things, and I'm already too nervous.
I decided not to torture myself with these complicated and nervous plans and I took a pretty good two-way ticket. Much more expensive than the first complex option, but at least convenient. And not for all the money in the world, as with direct flights *envious*
⏳I will return on March 25✈️
Taking into account the offered service, the maximum coordination of flights with each other, peace of mind about luggage and the absence of repeated check-in for transfers... Taking two tickets together turned out to be much more profitable. But geez, the prices for luggage are still insane.
So a two-way ticket, luggage and a ticket to Poland cost me a little more than $1000
I almost never spent such a huge amount of money at once. So now I'm a bit upset and stressed. I don't even earn that much... Although I try very hard to make as many arts as possible in a month. The last time I spent so much on an iPad, and then for a long time I couldn't believe that I really did it.
I was hoping that I could handle all this on my own, but I have to ask for help. Sorry, I feel a bit embarrassed about it
I just ran out of money.
I even accidentally got into a loan. But fortunately I was given a new commission in time to close it immediately. A little money was left for food for the next two weeks.
I still need to buy a lot of things for the trip, gifts for relatives, save some money for snacks on the road and for a taxi in Warsaw to the night's apartment and the airport.
Before I leave, I still have to pay the utility bills, stock up on cat food and litter for the cat litter box. Alex will be taking care of my two kitties for more than a month, so he needs to be provided with everything they need.
I would like to ask for more work.
Now I make 6 commissions at the same time. Also, some sketches for donations that were sent to me earlier. Soon they all will be ready and I can make room for new ones.
Of course, it would be better to get as many as possible! I will be able to work on them little by little in a calm Canadian environment.
Immediately warn that in this case there may be long delays, because I physically will not have time to overcome this queue quickly. But I will do my best. My tablet with me, so I'm in touch.
No matter how much time passes, I always remember every art I have to make for you! And behind the scenes, I try to speed up the result as much as I can, even if it seems to you that I disappeared somewhere again. I'm just completely deep in work and will get back soon with new cool stuff :)
The first priority now is, of course, Valentine's Day, and the deadline is just over a week away.
Look out for my awesome neon RAVE comic YCH especially for Valentine's Day! There are only two available pages (that's 4 open slots):
💗https://www.furaffinity.net/view/55384755/
Sold pages in the active process, they are in the highest priority now and will be posted even if the other slots are not closed.

If you don't know what you want to commission yet, or you're counting on art with my full creative freedom (I'm good at that😎), you can just send a random amount to my PayPal: lanovenkonastya[at]gmail.com
I will be very grateful!🥰
Just please let me know who exactly is sending the money. In personal messages, comment under this post or just write your nickname in the comment to the transaction. I need to check your page, see your gallery and characters to draw a gift for you🎁
If you have specific ideas and wishes, please also write to me. I will definitely appreciate any donation, big or small! Every donation is important!
I usually work on gratitude for the donation a bit longer, but you will definitely be pleasantly surprised when you suddenly receive it :)
Many of you have known me well for a long time, with you I can always be sincere and open-minded. When I feel your care and support, I can breathe out and have a little mental rest. I really appreciate it, not just in words. My beautiful, kind and sympathetic watchers always understand me, reassure and try to help. It especially makes my heart beat faster when I realize that you actually read my gigantic posts :"D
I always want to tell a lot, even if it seems superfluous to someone. I know that I sometimes have a difficult way of expressing myself, as well as long sentences with a lot of insignificant details. But for some time it became an important part of this page and my Art Pub, I feel myself not only a good artist, but also an interesting person. This encourages further development. And if you're still here, thank you :)
Thank you all so much!
I really love you all! 💗💗💗

One word of advice though: If you're staying during the winter, wear a thick winter coat when going out in snowy weather. Oh and wear some extra protection for pants if you go out during winter nights. Winter can get pretty cold here in Canada.
Nearly froze my legs to the point of freezer burn going out one winter night due to not wearing leg protection.
Do you need any more help?
I'm fine, it's my last week so I'm running around more than usual and trying to see and do everything.
The money is almost gone, I try not to spend it. And now I'm writing a journal that I want to take new commissions
