Dar es Salaam
After leaving an abusive relationship, 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 $45 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

      sending love, Imani. Shared this with my family. After 16 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

                      Hang in there, Imani. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

                        Keep going, Imani. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
