dear whānau, friends and strangers,
it is my hearts biggest wish to keep building a life and community in Aotearoa/ New Zealand.
Since many years I have been traveling this big planet in the search of a home- to belong. And I finally feel like I found that place.
To walk this land, support my friends, explore and learn more Māoritanga, grow plants and trees, grow an ecosystem that supports growth for the land and people, care for the kids, give bodywork and create art- is my desire and gift for the community.
At this moment I am in the process of applying for a Partnership Visa with my beloved Leo (soo lucky I am) & since my current visa restriction doesn't allow me to work , my funds have been running on low.
My plan A is: paying the money back I have borrowed for the Visa (1,600$) and being able to pay for my cost of living over the next weeks. If the Visa gets accepted in March, I would love to start working right away and for that I'm needing to get a car, so I am mobile.
Any money that could be saved, would be going straight into saving for the future visa to come in a year wich is 5.000$$$!!!!
Plan B: My Visa gets declined and I need to pay for flights back to Germany.
No matter how much you can give, I am deeply grateful for your support.
Meine liebe Familie,
Ich hab mein Zuhause in Neuseeland gefunden und möchte hier gerne bleiben.
Visas sind sehr teuer und ich brauche eure Unterstützung.
Egal wie viel ihr geben könnt, jede spende zählt!
Ich danke euch vom tiefsten herzen
Lotta <3
Lotta and I began a beautiful journey of love together in August last year. She has enriched my life and that of many others here in Ōtautahi and I want to support her to create her home in Aotearoa as best I can.
All donations will go towards paying for Lotta’s visa application fees, contributing to a car, and covering flights back to Germany if my visa application is not successful.
You Legends!! 25 March 2026
Again, I’m just so grateful for each and everyone of you ❤️ it makes me feel so loved and supported to receive your donations.
an update on the Visa front:
German bureaucracy is taking longer than expected… so I’m currently on an interm Visa until they can approve my Partnership Visa.
Which means that I am still not allowed to work.
Every Donation that is coming in right now is helping me to support myself and get groceries.
So even the smallest amount counts!
I’m forever grateful ❤️
