Friendly visitor needed for an 89-year-old neighbor in Coyoacán

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Miguel, who's 89. Miguel lives alone in Coyoacán, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 600 kilometers away. Miguel loves birdwatching, 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
