Companionship wanted: Jana's birdwatching and a cup of tea
Jana lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇩🇪 Berlin, Berlin, Germany1,135 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Jana, who's 76. Jana lives alone in Berlin, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 896 kilometers away.
Jana loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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, Hans. I hope things turn around soon. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Malmö.
Shared it with a few friends. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Riverside.
good luck, Hans. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Berlin.
Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
