Lagos
After a sudden divorce, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a hospital cleaner in Lagos 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 2 months. I can pay $55 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 three personal and 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

      Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Caloocan.

        stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 16 people at work.

        • Rubén M. Ríos

          Good luck, Ikenna. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
