Living Overseas And The "First World" Struggles

This last month has been TOTAL chaos! The month started with the realization that the governmental office where we live, totally messed up our visas for living here and we have to redo EVERYTHING.  If you are unaware with just how gruelling this process is, let me walk you through it:
-Apply For Visa
-Get New Visa Pictures
-Book Tickets For Leave
-Leave Country For AT LEAST 4 weeks
-Apply For LOI (Letter Of Invitation)
-Get Acceptance Of LOI
-Receive Visas In Mail
-Book Tickets To Come Back
-Come Back
-Re-Register For Your Area

I know. It's a 1-4 month process and it is the WORST thing you will ever experience. Your parents are CONSTANTLY stressed which absolutely always rubs off on you and you are always worried that something is going to be or go wrong. I have definitely used it to strengthen my relationship with God and take advantage of it. If you look above you see "Leave" and this means leave the country. If you havn't been living under a rock, you knows that the Coronavirus is effecting travel GREATLY. So, you know that this is the worsttttt time to have to do this process, but yet it must be done. The two countries that havn't closed their borders and will work for our situation are, Turkey and America.

Please Pray for my family in this time of trial. I will definitely keep you updated!!

Much Love,
Izabell
