Brampton
After a house fire, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a call-centre agent in Brampton 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 3 months. I can pay $210 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 three personal and 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. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

              So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Ribeirão Preto.

                      keep going. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
