A weekly visit for André, 75, who lives alone in Rio de Janeiro

Looking for a friendly person in Rio de Janeiro to visit André once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor André, who's 75. André lives alone in Rio de Janeiro, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 426 kilometers away. André loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person. All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity. No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience. Thank you for reading my story.

    Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Seoul.
