Bring Steph home

Donation protected
My flights to Australia got cancelled for the second time. I am not leaving tomorrow anymore. I came to Europe to stay with my family because I needed a break from home. I wanted to come back home early August & I was able to do that but only via Sydney & only in business class which cost between $5000 & $10000. Business class is now my only option to come home with the 50 persons per plane rule. I was told this ages ago by a few friends but the cost stopped me from doing this & I kept hope I could fly back in Economy. I will also need $3000 for the two weeks hotel quarantine but that is TBC. It is hard for me to ask for help & to receive help. I am starting a go fund me page to ask you to help me. Anything will help, even 10 euros or $20. If you cannot give anything, then sharing my post so I can reach more people would be awesome. I know I will give back to people in my many ways like I have always done in the past & via the new Artichoke Heart Foundation too. I know some people are suffering more than me right now in the world & are not as privileged as me but I have not seen my kids for 7 months. It is heart breaking & it is a daily torture without them. Belgium is where I was born & where I grew up but Geelong is my home & where I belong. I am feeling great & ready to start my life over again now, I just gotta get home. Thanks for the ongoing support & the constant loving messages you have sent. Looking forward to going home & I cannot wait for that day I will be able to hug & kiss my kids. That will be the best day of my new life
