One night in March, I was connecting with my higher power.

“Can you please tell me where I need to go?”

I knew I needed to leave Atlanta. It wasn't for a specific reason, because things were great. I lived in a townhome with an amazing landlord and a group of friends that are the most talented musicians in the city. But still I knew something was telling me to go– a feeling like something in my chest was compressing, and the city kept getting heavier each time I walked through it.

The night I prayed, I had a dream of peering through an airplane window–or perhaps looking closely at a map–down at mountains surrounded by large bodies of water. A plane ticket appeared showing the location “Baza” with a plane ticket price. The next morning, I scribbled down Baza–(which I’ve never heard of before)–then made a quick google search.

Baza is a small town in Granada, the lower province of Spain. Spain is one of three countries my Nicaraguan grandmother said I must visit before I die. We most likely have ancestors there, although I never felt “called” to go until the dream. It surprised me how clear the Universe was being with me– like, HERE IS THE PLANE TICKET.

So only a month ago (it’s May 2021 as I write this) I sold mostly everything, left my friends, paid gigs, paid job, packed little and moved to Fort Pierce to live with my Nana, as I focus on music & healing my body (I have chronic inflammation which gives me pain in the left side of my body).

You and I both know that globally, we have all been tested in struggle & self-reliance. It has been tough lessons for us the past two years in a pandemic. So much is changing, passing us by like trees on an interstate. Like trees, we can hold peace despite these changing environments.

I also believe unlike trees, we’re not meant to stand still.

So I'm ready to go and I'm going. And I'm asking for your help. I’m a 26 year old Atlanta-born, intuitive soul musician with a discography of both great performances and great failure, low depression and high-off-life joy.

One truth has become consistent to me recently: I am meant for greatness. (And just so you know–you’re meant for it too. We all are.)

The 9-month life in Spain is literally about to birth a new me. I’ll be teaching kids English, immersing myself in the Spanish culture, booking gigs, and inviting a new musical landscape to find me. And I'll be giving back to you new albums, podcasts, and videos of it all.

Right now I’m fighting for this divine vision and want you to join me along the way.

If 150 people visited this page and they each donated 25$, I’d be at my goal of 3688$. Will you help me get to Spain? – Julianna
