After a serious car accident, I have been mostly housebound for 3 weeks. My family live far away, and the days can feel very long. I'm not looking for therapy - I've that covered - but for conversation.
I'm hoping for someone who can call for about 30 minutes once a week whenever suits us both. I like film, travel stories and poetry, and can listen to anything.
This can be from anywhere in the world as long as you speak English. We can arrange the calls through the platform, with email shared only when we're both comfortable.
Thanks for even thinking about it.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hope things get better soon, Otieno. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
Shared this with my family. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Nairobi
Praying for you, Otieno. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Nairobi.
