Saint-Denis
After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a junior accountant in Saint-Denis and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing. I'm looking for a spare room for 3 months. I can pay $310 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have a landlord and employer references. I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details. Glad we found this place.

    thinking of you and your family, Gilles. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Bordeaux so I could bring a meal. Love from Lagos.

      Hope things get better soon, Gilles. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

              Stay strong. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.

                Best of luck, Gilles. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out!
