After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a teacher's aide in San Jose 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 $340 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.
Glad we found this place.

sending strength, Souad. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 8 people at work. Blessings
you're not alone, Souad. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Keep going, Souad. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Put this on a community board in Nsukka this morning. Greetings from Nsukka
