A weekly visit for Gustavo, 73, who lives alone in Tijuana

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that is all Gustavo is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Gustavo, who's 73. Gustavo lives alone in Tijuana, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Gustavo loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • sending good thoughts, Rubén. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Malang but we're thinking of you. All the best.
