Companionship wanted: Sebastián's old films and a cup of tea

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Sebastián, who's 75. Sebastián lives alone in Bogotá, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Sebastián loves old films, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
