The Difficult Decision to Return

  • 🏠 Many Venezuelans are choosing to return home due to the hardships and humiliation they face in other countries.
  • 💡 The desire to be with family and avoid expenses like rent, water, and electricity in their home country is a significant motivator.
  • 💰 The primary goal is to focus on daily work and find peace, rather than struggling in a foreign land.

Challenges of the Journey

  • 🚢 The journey back is perilous, with migrants enduring long hours in difficult conditions, such as a 17-hour boat trip on gas tanks.
  • 💔 Some migrants arrive with very little, and others cannot afford passage, relying on the generosity of those who can help.
  • 🤝 The situation is described as a constant struggle, with limited resources and no financial support from family.

Humble Beginnings and Limited Resources

  • 😔 The individuals involved come from humble families with no means to send financial assistance.
  • 💸 They are described as having no money and are essentially fighting for survival day by day.
  • 🙏 Despite the difficulties, they rely on blessings and their own resilience to get by.
