Hello everyone. I'm currently looking for a temporary accommodation arrangement in Kenya, preferably Nairobi or nearby. I'm between jobs at the moment and looking for a safe place to stay while I get back on my feet. I'm open to a reasonable arrangement where I can contribute through housework, errands, administration, childcare, pet care, general assistance, or other agreed responsibilities in exchange for accommodation. I'm responsible, respectful, clean and willing to work. I'm not looking for a handout — I'm genuinely looking for a safe temporary arrangement that works for both sides. If you know of a family, individual, hostel, guesthouse, organization or legitimate work-exchange opportunity that may be suitable, please DM me. Referrals are also very welcome. Thank you.
