Companionship wanted: Rajesh's birdwatching and a cup of tea
Rajesh lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇮🇳 Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India338 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Rajesh, who's 92. Rajesh lives alone in Chennai, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 288 kilometers away.
Rajesh loves birdwatching, 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.
Glad we found this place.

best of luck, Kavita. Hope this works out for you.
Praying for you, Kavita. Wishing Rajesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We're a small family in Cologne but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Chennai.
Thinking of you. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Belém but we're thinking of you. Love from Belém.
