Mia needs a safe place to stay for 2 months
Looking for a spare room in Adelaide for a few months; Mia can contribute to bills and help around the house.
🇦🇺 Adelaide, South Australia, Australia1,069 views
After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a bus driver in Adelaide 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 $220 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care
Sending love. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Adelaide.
Sending love. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Thanks for sharing this, Mia. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless
Good luck, Mia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Adelaide
Sending strength. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Casablanca this morning.

So sorry you're going through this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from Ikeja

Sending strength, Mia. Your post was clear and honest. After 9 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
