Could you share an hour a week with Elif?

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that is all Elif is asking for.

Berlin
I'm writing for my neighbor Elif, who's 75. Elif lives alone in Berlin, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Elif loves chess, 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
