After a long COVID relapse, I have been mostly housebound for 7 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Thinking of you and your family, Bithi. This could happen to any of us. After 29 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Get well soon. My neighbor in Cape Town donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Cape Town.
Sending love. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Bithi. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Blessings
Praying for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
