Could you share an hour a week with Alyona?

Alyona lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

Odesa
I'm writing for my neighbor Alyona, who's 77. Alyona lives alone in Odesa, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Alyona loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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. I hope life is good to you.
