Dear Hosts in Seattle,
I have a friend who I have known since he was a lad of only 4 years old; he is the most remarkable young man, and he is widely sought out now in his College years by companies like Space X to do internships with them in their rocket engine departments. My friend now needs a place to stay for a month near Boeing in Seattle. He is on a very tight budget. I did not know if any of you might have a place for him - He will drum up as much money as he can, and his parents may help, so I won't give a cap on what he can spend; but the less he can pay, the better.
I realize Memorial Day weekend is during May, and so I told him it may not be easy to find a place (he has searched on Airbnb already), but perhaps some of you have a small space for him to crash in that you could list for him? You will enjoy him immensely. He is one of the most accomplished and interesting human beings I have ever had the pleasure of knowing (played Carnegie Hall on the piano when still in his mid-teens). He is a great lover of music, space, and science. I can vouch for his character - I know him and his family very well; his father is a colleague of mine and he has served as Chair at a well known University and in Japan and China in various Health programs at high levels. You will not regret hosting this fine gentleman. In fact, you will likely thank me for the opportunity!
I appreciate your kind consideration.
Best,
Rebecca
