After spinal surgery, I have been mostly housebound for 6 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 podcasts, football and cooking, 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.
Glad we found this place.

Hope things get better soon. Wishing Seyi a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Sending good thoughts, Seyi. Shared this with my family. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Galle.
hope things get better soon, Seyi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Oakland.
