Newcastle upon Tyne
After a sudden divorce, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a retail supervisor in Newcastle upon Tyne 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 $330 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 three personal and 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

  • Good luck. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Edinburgh so I could bring a meal.

    • You're not alone, Willow. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.

      • stay strong, Willow. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

        • Hope things get better soon, Willow. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.

          • Hang in there, Willow. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.

            • So sorry you're going through this, Willow. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Toulon.
