Hi Barbados, This phrase "I seek sponsoring" or "I'm looking for a sponsor" means "I want all my expenpenses to be paid by someone". Russian man understand this phrase 100% like this. "I can't pay the transportation costs" wich means buying tickets, hotels, food. I think so. When I was 20-25 years old, I couldn't pay for such expenses either. I studied at the university and worked. I could pay for apartment rent, education, entertainment, clothes, food. But I wasn't looking for a guy in another country and sponsors because there were a lot of guys around. Anyway, I wish you good luck😊!
