Wandering Observant Jew seeks help

BS"D / BE"H
Wandering Observant Jew seeks help: My name is Ariel David Ever. I have recently been separated. I am now broke. I am looking for a place to put my few possessions and a place to sleep: with other people, in a utility room, even a shed. I have blankets. I am clean.  I am a prior Navy Hospital Corpsman. I also have other skills I acquired during my eight years active service. I should be able to find work soon. Please help me for a month or two. I am willing to do any kind of chores. I am fluent in Hebrew, French, and German. 

I can be reached at (240) 898-8091 anytime. Please don't call on Shabbat or Yom Tov, except in an emergency. Thank you.

Thank you.
Ariel David Ever
