Hi all!
Marisol, my paying roommate is moving out on September 9 and I have already received the last months rent from her. We need to find another short, or longer term roommate very soon! Luckily, the tourist season will start to ramp up in mid-October, and I don't think we will have any problems filling the room after that. It's just getting from here to there!
I've advertised everywhere I can think of, including airbnb, so now it is a matter of spreading the word by mouth and crossing our fingers.
The crunch time could be September 6, when Marisol normally pays her rent (about $218). So if any of you, or perhaps someone you know, can
donate a little extra to help hold us over that one month, it would be a great relief. I wish I could just give Fran the room, but we need the rent money to keep our little boat afloat!
Meanwhile, Fran is signing up for classes today and buying materials. She is still attending free English classes at the Oaxaca Lending Library and studying on her own, with me. As I may have mentioned, she is now saying things in English and responding in English to some of my questions, so that is a big break through!
She just returned from a week with her family in Cuicatlan and I hope to be posting photos soon
