After a flood that wrecked my apartment, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a junior accountant in Embakasi 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 4 months. I can pay $35 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 a landlord and employer 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

So sorry you're going through this, Barasa. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Faisalabad.
Hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Kraków but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Kraków.
Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Embakasi
Hang in there, Barasa. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
