After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a bus driver in Johannesburg 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 $55 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.

Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Cleveland
You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Johannesburg.
Good luck, Zinhle. Hope this works out for you
