After a long COVID relapse, I have been mostly housebound for 4 weeks. My family live far away, and the days can feel very long. I'm not looking for therapy - I've that covered - but for conversation.
I'm hoping for someone who can call for about 30 minutes once a week whenever suits us both. I like history, chess and quiz shows, and can listen to anything.
This can be from anywhere in the world as long as you speak English. We can arrange the calls through the platform, with email shared only when we're both comfortable.
Thanks for even thinking about it.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

- 30 minutes a week

I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Keep going, Hideo. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Mardan but we're thinking of you.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Newcastle.
Praying for you. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out
