Companionship wanted: Huyền's birdwatching and a cup of tea

Huyền lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

Hồ Chí Minh City
I'm writing for my neighbor Huyền, who's 74. Huyền lives alone in Hồ Chí Minh City, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 603 kilometers away. Huyền loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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. Glad we found this place.

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.
