Fundraiser: help us be more mobile and buy a car
Help us be more mobile and independent: contribute to car
We are Julia and Rafael, a recently married couple from Brasil and Netherlands and live in Valencia, Spain. We moved here this year. Rafael is massage therapist, is setting up his yoga project here and studying programming. Julia is historian and working in an office job full time. Next year our plan is to go to Sweden, where Julia will do a masters’ degree.
Our dream is to buy a car.
We love travelling but also want to do it in a (more) sustainable way. This means preferably no flying, but slow travelling by land: trains or car, picking up hitchhikers or putting up rides on Blablacar in order to take advantage of the space of the car.
With a car, we would have freedom in Valencia as well to explore the surrounding villages and nature, that are often not easy to reach with public transport.
Even more important, with a car we could make the move from Spain to Sweden next summer and take all of our belongings with us in it (we don’t own a lot of things).
In Sweden, where we plan to live in the countryside, we could also explore nature and go camping with our car. And also the basic things such as running errands, visiting people, or doing groceries would be easier.
Why are we asking for help?
Since we got married this year, made the move to Valencia, Rafael is studying for a new profession, and the employment market here is quite tough, payment is not very high, and everything was a bit rushed, it has been hard to get by and even more difficult to save up money for buying a car.
We feel it would be such a good investment. It would help us save money and give us much more freedom and independence.
And we thought: we can always ask people to contribute to our cause. Family, friends but also strangers.
As we say in the Netherlands: nee heb je, ja kun je krijgen. (a ‘no’ you already have, but a ‘yes’ you can get)
What car do we want to buy?
We are thinking about buying a minivan like Renault Kangoo, Peugeot Partner or Dacia Dokker. Or a slightly smaller model, but one in which we would be able to sleep during road trips.
We want to buy a second-hand model and are thinking about spending around 6000 euros.
If you help us with a donation, whichever amount of money, we will be extremely grateful.
Everybody that offers a donation above 50 euros we will offer one of our services like a massage, Dutch class, or yoga class.

“I have come to know that the scholars of old would practice what they learned when they learned it, and through practicing they would become occupied, and because of being occupied, they would be missed, and when they were missed they were sought after, and when they were sought after they would flee.”
- Fudayl Ibn Iyaad (rahimahullah)

The hist’ry classes rarely
Tell how lives are squarely
Normal still
In times of thrill -
We’re doing laundry, barely

Non parlo spagnolo ma so che mi puoi capire: grazie per il tuo post sulla nazionalità. Anche io sono stufa di vedere una serie di americani con una cultura campata per aria che si fingono italiani solo perché hanno ereditato un cognome o mangiano spaghetti una volta a settimana. Sono ridicoli, sembrano dei bambini che fanno cosplay di altre nazionalità, ma senza nemmeno aver visto l'anime. E poi frignano se gli dici la verità 😂 you're 100% right and you should say it! 🙌🙌
JAJAJA Me alegra que más gente esté de acuerdo, en un principio pensaba que estaba siendo muy dura con los estadounidenses. Muchos besos <3 mua mua

Funny how women centric spirituality is criticized on the basis that "putting someone on a pedestal is still dehumanizing them" "we shouldn't celebrate womanhood because it's othering" etc like funny how those arguments never apply to male centric religions. Somehow Christianity isn't dehumanising men even though it states explicitly that men are inherently more in touch with the holy and suited for priesthood etc., but god forbid Dianic wicca for example states the same thing about women and suddenly it's misogynistic. Women have been told for millennia by male centric religions that we're filthy and tainted because we're female, what's so wrong about it if some women actually want to celebrate their womanhood as something sacred? It's not bioessentialism to uplift your spirit.
My favourite quote on this topic will always be this one from Ruth Barrett: "the girl develops an attitude that being a woman is either dirty and shameful or that at its best it is "no big deal". This attitude follows her into womanhood, affecting her relationship with her body, her sexuality... " Women centered spirituality exists to challenge that.
