Could you host Johan? A room for 3 months
Hosting Johan would give a hardworking a hospital cleaner the stability to find a new place.
🇿🇦 Soweto, Gauteng, South Africa513 views
After my landlord selling the building, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a hospital cleaner in Soweto and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing.
I'm looking for a spare room for 2 months. I can pay $90 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have two work references.
I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details.
Glad we found this place.

Keep going, Johan. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Thinking of you and your family, Johan. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Faisalabad.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Soweto
Sending love. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Soweto.
Thinking of you, Johan. Looking forward to the next update!
