Makati
After a sudden divorce, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a teacher's aide in Makati 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • keep going, Mark. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps

    • Best of luck. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Dhaka but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Dhaka.

      • Hope it all works out, Mark. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.

                        • Your post was clear and honest. After 19 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

                          • Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 26 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
