I'm writing for my neighbor Francisca, who's 76. Francisca lives alone in Rio de Janeiro, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 851 kilometers away. Francisca loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    • Sending love, Arthur. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

      • Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

        • Sending strength. Shared this with my family. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

          • It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Luxor
