Could you host Yohannes? A room for 3 months
Looking for a spare room in Addis Ababa for a few months; Yohannes can contribute to bills and help around the house.
🇪🇹 Addis Ababa, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia322 views
After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a hospital cleaner in Addis Ababa 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 4 months. I can pay $25 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 a landlord and employer 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Thinking of you, Yohannes. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Magelang so I could bring a meal

Best of luck, Yohannes. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
