Right now I’m taking things one step at a time. I got my legal name and gender marker changed several months ago and got my name and gender marker amended on my license 2 months ago, after already having it changed on my birth certificate (thankfully it was before Texas made the ban). While there’s still tons of other paperwork with different companies and entities I have to individually update (it’s such a pain), the only big important document left for this is my passport, and I have everything I need to update it ready except for a new photo. So that’s my first step. From there I’m not really sure what to do tbh, money is also an issue which is why I wanted to wait until I have a degree and can get a job (in community college atm). Maybe there’s some way to save up and attend uni in Europe but I’m really not sure.

90 days is a really long time haha, so I don’t mind that limitation for other countries. I’m still trying to figure out exactly what I am pursuing and what would be most strategic, but it seems like there is a lot of demand for IT jobs in many parts of Europe. I’m very interesting in programming, computer science, computer hardware, and networking – really anything with computers or electronics tbh. So surely there’s some niche I can fill.

I just know the US is not the place for me, and neither is Canada. I love the wide range of cultures in Europe, the walkable cities and public transportation, the better social programs, and the Schengen area allowing me to visit tons of other places in Europe on a whim. I just know it’s right for me so I’m willing to work towards that goal, to get a work visa and work my way towards citizenship.

Aww, thank you!

My plan right now is to get a degree and move out of the US in the next 2-3 years, preferably to somewhere in Europe. Texas isn’t the best for trans people but since I got my license changed before the ban went in place (even though I’m def on the list :p) and I pass pretty well, I’m not too worried right now. Ofc that all depends on November, might have to emergency move to Canada if things end up going south 😅

Tysm!!

Happy to be here!

aww 🥺 tyy tyy

Saaaame

Thank you!! If I don’t manage it it just ends up being just wavy and frizzy, but when I touch it up and get the curls nice it does turn out pretty well haha
