🇬🇧 Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom1,262 views
After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a bus driver in Cardiff 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 $310 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Rooting for you, Samuel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 3 people at work. Thinking of Cardiff.
Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Kraków
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Dammam!

Thinking of you, Samuel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Kano!
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Sending good thoughts, Samuel. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
Best of luck, Samuel. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Gazipur
