After a flood that wrecked my apartment, Biniam needs a safe, quiet room in Adama for 3 months while getting back on their feet.

After a flood that wrecked my apartment, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a line cook in Adama 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 $30 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 hope life is good to you.
