After my landlord selling the building, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a care assistant in Dar es Salaam 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 4 months. I can pay $40 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.
I hope life is good to you.

So sorry you're going through this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless
Thanks for sharing this, Githinji. Hope this works out for you. 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, Githinji. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Cluj-Napoca!
Thinking of you and your family, Githinji. Hope you get there. Don't give up. God bless.
