Hello there!
I would like to thank everyone here who has commissioned me the past few months ~ without you i would have certainly starved by now.
Sorry if i seemed so robotic and emotionless in the messages and notes, I really love to take extra care of each of my commissioner, but covered up in all of that stress was just impossible for me. I was on pure survival mode.
It seems our trip to Spain was unsuccessful and in the end we came to the conclusion that, even tho in Romania the living conditions are not as good as in Madrid, we can make a simple, easy living just like we dream of.
Why go to Spain then, you ask? Well, let me just say somebody important to us invited us there, but it turned out it was completely the opposite of what they promised. The last 2 months we only survived with the money i earned here on reference sheets...and we barely made it back home..
Now I'm back here,but my mom is renovating our apartment before she leaves, so the following week everything will be up in chaos around here, so sorry if i'm a bit slow on the remaining commissions! I will have to attempt her wedding in Switzerland by mid of July, so there will be further delays(i hope i will finish with the commissions till then).
After all of this I will try to find a simple job so I can dedicate most of my time to art and crafts. I have so many ideas, i'm thinking of opening an Etsy shop because all in my family love crafts, my boyfriend is skilled in creating books and notebooks out of scrap paper and my mom makes crochets like these http://sta.sh/221kfqedkoos?edit=1 ! I told her that maybe she can make sleeves with paws on them and she said it's a great idea!
So then those are plans for the future but, for now, in the following days I will post the remaining artwork that is still for sale. Now i can ship everything anywhere, so say tuned!

Sad to hear your trip was not as fortunate as you wished it to be. Home is where the heart is and at the very least, you are now safe and sound back home.
I've recently returned from France and I was surprised to feel what a depressive atmosphere it hit me with.
I guess there's a very beautiful irony in travelling. Not only you see the beauties (and bad things) in other countries, but the more you travel, the more you grow to love your own country.
Oh, I forgot to mention, I'm from Romania as well!
And yes, it's so saddening to see what these politicians do here. Now people told me there have been protests here and shit really hit the fan when these politicians basically wanted to strip off our country even from it's last bit of money, it's unacceptable.
Call me crazy, i don't see myself as a hero or anything...but i feel like this country needs me, and needs more good people who want to try and change it for the better! As soon as i will be a bit more stable with the money i want to return to our local bird of prey sanctuary and offer to help them as a volunteer again. So many good people go to live outside, so many good people are scared to live here because all the good medics leave and because there are so many "risks", but i don't want to leave this country again.
And speaking english with a Romanian ftw XDD
