After a long COVID relapse, I have been mostly housebound for 5 weeks. My family live far away, and the days can feel very long. I'm not looking for therapy - I've that covered - but for conversation.
I'm hoping for someone who can call for about 30 minutes once a week whenever suits us both. I like podcasts, football and cooking, and can listen to anything.
This can be from anywhere in the world as long as you speak English. We can arrange the calls through the platform, with email shared only when we're both comfortable.
Thanks for even thinking about it.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

So sorry you're going through this, Ellie. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Maringá so I could bring a meal

Hang in there, Ellie. Hope this works out for you. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
Sending strength. Shared this with my family. After 22 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Best of luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Thanks for sharing this. Wishing Ellie a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Wish I lived closer to Galway so I could bring a meal. Love from Bornova.
