After a long COVID relapse, I have been mostly housebound for 8 weeks. My family live far away, and the days can feel very long. I'm not looking for therapy - I've that covered - but for conversation.
I'm hoping for someone who can call for about 30 minutes once a week whenever suits us both. I like film, travel stories and poetry, and can listen to anything.
This can be from anywhere in the world as long as you speak English. We can arrange the calls through the platform, with email shared only when we're both comfortable.
Thanks for even thinking about it.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Get well soon. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Wishing Giovana a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this, Giovana. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Cairo.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I hope July is when things finally get easier. God bless.
