My motorbike: Georgiana's only way to earn a living
Georgiana drives for a living in Cluj-Napoca, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 7 weeks.
🇷🇴 Cluj-Napoca, Cluj, Romania805 views
I make my living with my motorbike. 7 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $500. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $500 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $90
• Towing and inspection: $50
• gearbox replacement (parts): $360
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Georgiana
It's all in the list in the story. road tax and insurance renewal is the big one at $90, I'll post a receipt when it's paid.
