After a long COVID relapse, I have been mostly housebound for 3 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 15 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Gwagwalada.
hope things get better soon, Zubby. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in C贸rdoba but we're thinking of you. Love from C贸rdoba
