Friendly visitor needed for a 73-year-old neighbor in Saint Petersburg
Natalia lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Natalia, who's 73. Natalia lives alone in Saint Petersburg, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Natalia loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Saint Petersburg. I'll ask around and let you know
Rooting for you, Boris. Wishing Natalia a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Makassar.
Best of luck, Boris. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless
Shared this with my family. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Saint Petersburg.
