After a flood that wrecked my apartment, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a retail supervisor in Venice 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 $220 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 two work 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    So sorry you're going through this, Martina. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together

    • Sending strength, Martina. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best

      • Hope things get better soon, Martina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to San Jose so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Mumbai.

        • Hang in there, Martina. This could happen to any of us. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless

          • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Venice

            • Thanks for sharing this, Martina. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. After 7 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Pune

              • A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Put this on a community board in Yonkers this morning

                • A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Venice.

                  • Thinking of you, Martina. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
