A ride from Kisumu to a larger city two hours away for Fatuma's new job
Does anyone drive from Kisumu to a larger city two hours away around September? Fatuma needs a ride and a way to carry 4 boxes.
🇰🇪 Kisumu, Kenya1,702 views
I have been offered a job in a larger city two hours away, starting on Tuesday in September. I can't afford the bus and the 4 boxes I need to carry with me, and moving costs are beyond my means.
If you or someone you know is driving between Kisumu and a larger city two hours away, I'd love to share the journey, and I can cover fuel. If you have a van and a free day, even better.
I'm quiet, punctual and travel light. I have a reference from my last employer and from the person I'll be renting from in a larger city two hours away.
Thank you for reading my story.
