After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a teacher's aide in Manila 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 $30 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 two 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.
Glad we found this place.

- 2–4 months

You're not alone, Edgardo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
Hope things get better soon, Edgardo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 24 years in logistics I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Love from Novosibirsk
good luck. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Bogotá donated after I showed her your page.
Best of luck. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
