🇰🇪 Nairobi, Nairobi, Kenya507 views
After a house fire, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a junior accountant in Nairobi 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 $65 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.

Keep going. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Lagos.
