About Me
On August 20, 2022, I took a significant step in my journey: I applied for permanent residency in Australia. From the beginning, my goal was never to stay here forever, but rather to build a path with fewer obstacles — a journey of personal and professional growth.
The plan was clear: once my visa was granted, I would dedicate one year to improving my English, and then I would pursue my long-held dream of studying Engineering.
An Unexpected Turn
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. About a year after applying, I was informed that my visa would not be approved. The reason: the company sponsoring me was no longer active.
This came as a shock. I had been hired by a company called Solo 7, and one of their administrative contacts, Lachlan Miller, regularly communicated with me, assigning jobs and requesting service-related documents. Everything seemed legitimate and in order.
Since I withdrew my residency application, my life has turned upside down. Every day has been a psychological and emotional challenge.
Why I Created This Space
This blog has two main purposes:
1. Psychological Support
After almost 8 years away from my family and friends, seeing a personal project change so drastically, and losing much of the money I had saved with great effort — all of this has taken a serious toll on my mental health.
Sharing my story here helps me process everything, reflect, and maybe even support others going through similar challenges. Also, my daily work life is, to say the least, quite eventful — and sometimes worth documenting.
2. A Commitment to My Dream
More than a professional goal, pursuing a degree in Engineering is a deeply personal dream. I want to use this space to document my learning path and progress along the way.
My Daily Routine
My routine is extremely busy, so new content may be added slowly — but consistently.
- My day starts at 4:00 AM.
- I aim to study at least 1 hour a day — any extra time is a bonus.
- I leave the house at 6:00 AM and return around 5:00 PM.
- Once home, I take a quick shower, drive my wife to work, and spend the rest of the evening with my daughter.
- By 9:30 PM, it's time to sleep and repeat the routine the next day.
On weekends, I usually have more time to study. However, getting up on Saturdays is not easy — especially because on Friday I have online therapy sessions around 11:00 PM, which makes waking up on Sunday even harder.
If you made it this far, thank you for reading. This space is my outlet, my study notebook, and — above all — a way to keep believing that it’s possible to move forward, even when life takes an unexpected turn.
