Companionship wanted: Skylar's birdwatching and a cup of tea
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Skylar is asking for.
🇦🇺 Hobart, Tasmania, Australia1,365 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Skylar, who's 93. Skylar lives alone in Hobart, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 222 kilometers away.
Skylar loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.
