After spinal surgery, I have been mostly housebound for 8 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 podcasts, football and cooking, 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Sending good thoughts. Your post was clear and honest. God bless!
Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Kasarani.
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Yekaterinburg but we're thinking of you!
Wishing you the best, Sara. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Cairo.
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Verona.
