Moving day volunteers: Hoàng's family relocating in Hồ Chí Minh City
Hoàng has found a safe new apartment in Hồ Chí Minh City and needs help moving heavy furniture on Tuesday.
🇻🇳 Hồ Chí Minh City, Hồ Chí Minh City, VietnamPosted Oct 1, 20261,407 views
After an unsafe stairwell, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Hồ Chí Minh City, and the lease starts on Tuesday. I have my elderly father, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for 3-4 helpers for about five hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the third floor with no elevator and the new place has just one flight of stairs. We'll do it in two trips. Lunch and cold drinks are on me.
I know this is a lot to ask of strangers. I'd be happy to share references from my landlord and my employer.
Thank you for reading my story.
