HI Ashanti,

 

I need to sublet a place for just a few months in Boston area, as then I will probably be relocating to the south.  Do you know of anything open?  I will be ending my sublease n Somerville, unfortunately, on September 1st, as the proper renter of the place is returning.

 

Looking forward to seeing you soon, and appreciate any help with this!
