After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a care assistant in Cape Town 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 3 months. I can pay $50 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.

- 2–4 months

Thanks for sharing this, Mpho. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Riverside.
Sending love, Mpho. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor in Nagpur donated after I showed her your page.
