<br>I remember that since I was about 16 years old, I began to yearn to have my own house. It was a dream that I saw far away, but not impossible, and as soon as I got my first job after graduating from college, I began to raise money for that purpose.
<br>By then, my mother told me that the best thing to do was to invest that money in the apartment that she and my father had acquired, but the fact of knowing that not even inheriting it would be completely mine, made me decline her request.
<br>However, many years had to pass for that dream to become a reality.
<br>I was already with a partner and a 3 year old child when I met the house that would be my future home.
<br>We were living with an aunt, in a single room, the three of us, and a space for us was already necessary. That is why we started to look for housing developments under construction that offered the purchase in installments as the work was being done.

<br>That is how we came to one that was just outside the city. With ample green areas, parks, its own water well and a tranquility that invited you to stay. There I fell in love with the houses and I set a goal that I would buy one.
<br>By then, what I earned did not allow much, but the aspirations were much higher and somehow I would have the opportunity to buy.
<br>I put up a picture of the house in my room with a handwritten note: **My house 2011**. But it took that year, and a couple more before I had the key to my own house.
<br>The adventure of paying by installments was an emotional roller coaster, which went by with an impressive fluidity: That house was meant for me!
<br>We moved in on January 10, 2015, while I was 6 months pregnant with my second child. We still had to lay the ceramic tiles and build the walls that divided the plots, but I didn't want to wait any longer.

<br>Step by step, adjusting finances and time, we began to give shape to our home, which although it did not have all the comforts, it gave us the security and space we had been needing for a long time.
<br>All of this coincided with the economic crash in Venezuela, in fact, I can say that we bought the house just before the debacle that occurred in the country.
<br>Since then, everything went uphill. More and more my dream was fading away, as life became very complicated. The car was damaged and we no longer had money to repair it, so living in the suburbs became a real hell.
<br>Then every single thing, even the most basic, simply could not be found or acquired easily, and in the midst of an extreme situation, the only way out I saw was to sell everything and emigrate.

<br>So I sold my dream, there was no turning back. My house, which I always longed for, now belongs to someone else, and I am currently living abroad, once again in a kind of prison, which is paying monthly rent.
Just a couple of months ago, the dream started to revive. Maybe now it will be a little more uphill, but if there is one thing I have learned, it is that nothing is impossible when you set your mind to it.
<br>To live my old age in a roof over my own head is my greatest desire. Since I recognize that I will not always have the strength to work long hours or accept any job, but having the security of a place to be is for me the push to resume the path of this goal.

<br>Recuerdo que desde que tenía unos 16 años, empecé a anhelar tener mi casa propia. Era un sueño que veía lejano, pero no imposible, y apenas tuve mi primer empleo luego de graduarme de la universidad, comencé a reunir dinero con ese fin.
<br>Para entonces mi madre me decía que lo mejor era invertir ese dinero en el apartamento que ella y mi papá habían adquirido, pero el solo hecho de saber que ni heredando sería del todo mio, me hacía declinar a su solicitud.
<br>Sin embargo, tuvieron que pasar muchos años para que ese sueño se hiciera real.
<br>Ya estaba con pareja y un niño de 3 años cuando conocí la que sería mi futura casa.
<br>Vivíamos con una tía, en una sola habitación los tres, y ya se hacía necesario un espacio para nosotros. Fue por ello que empezamos a buscar urbanismos en construcción que ofrecieran la compra fraccionada a medida que se iba realizando la obra.

<br>Así llegamos a uno que quedaba justo en las afueras de la ciudad. Con amplias zonas verdes, parques, pozo de agua propio y una tranquilidad que invitaba a quedarse. Ahí quedé enamorada de las casas y me puse como meta que compraría una.
<br>Para entonces, lo que ganaba no permitía mucho, pero las aspiraciones eran mucho mayores y de algún modo yo tendría la oportunidad de comprar.
<br>Coloqué en mi habitación, una foto de la casa con una nota escrita a mano: **Mi casa 2011**. Pero pasó ese año, y un par más antes de tener la llave de mi propia casa.
<br>La aventura de pagar por cuotas fue una montaña rusa emocional, que se fue dando con una fluidez impresionante: Esa casa estaba destinada para mi!
<br>Nos mudamos el 10 de enero de 2015, estando yo con 6 meses de embarazo de mi segundo hijo. Aún faltaba colocar la cerámica y construir las paredes que dividían las parcelas, pero yo no quería espera más.

<br>Paso a paso, ajustando las finanzas y los tiempos, empezamos a darle forma a nuestro hogar, que aunque no tenía todas las comodidades, nos daba la seguridad y el espacio que veníamos necesitando desde hacía mucho tiempo.
<br>Todo esto coincidió con la estrepitosa caída económica en Venezuela, de hecho, puedo decir que nosotros compramos la casa justo antes de la debacle que se presentó en el país.
<br>Desde entonces, todo se puso cuesta arriba. Cada vez más mi sueño se desvanecía, pues la vida se tornaba muy complicada. <br>El auto se dañó y ya no teníamos dinero para repararlo, así que vivir a las afueras se convirtió en un verdadero infierno.
<br>Luego cada cosa, hasta la más básica, simplemente no se podía encontrar o adquirir fácilmente, y en medio de una situación extrema, la única salida que vi fue: vender todo y emigrar.

<br>Fue así que vendí mi sueño, no había vuelta atrás. Mi casa que siempre anhelé, ahora pertenece a otra persona, y actualmente vivo en el extranjero, nuevamente presa de pagar mensualmente un alquiler.
<br>Justo hace un par de meses atrás, el sueño comenzó a revivir. Quizás ahora será un poco más cuesta arriba, pero si algo he aprendido, es que nada es imposible cuando te lo propones con ahínco.
<br>Vivir mi vejez en un techo propio es mi mayor anhelo. Ya que reconozco que no siempre tendré la fuerza para trabajar largas jornadas o aceptar cualquier oficio, pero tener la seguridad de un espacio donde estar es para mi el empuje para retomar la senda de esta meta.
