Could you share an hour a week with Guadalupe?

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

Tarragona
I'm writing for my neighbor Guadalupe, who's 75. Guadalupe lives alone in Tarragona, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Guadalupe loves old films, 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
