After my landlord selling the building, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a call-centre agent in Manila 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 $50 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 three personal and 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

You're not alone. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.
Sending love. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Thanks for sharing this, Lovely. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
thinking of you and your family, Lovely. This could happen to any of us. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
you're not alone. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Manila.
