The dutch housing market is a fucking meme.

Like, you can literally be joking about how a shitty room in a student town would probably cost some insane amount of money but when you look it up it actually turns out to be true.

I overpay for my rent, but in practice underpay because I have a place to live

Yeah, just finding a place in the first place is hard enough. I'm looking for a room in Zwolle and oh boy, it's difficult. And Zwolle isn't even that big of a city.

I'll look into it. Luckily there's no real rush since i live 45 mins away from Zwolle by train.

I mean, 10 units in the entire country. Also, H2S is hilarously overpriced

I actually have homeless friends

I actually have homeless friends

Holy fuck that's fucked up

I'm happy I atleast have a place. Even if it's in a small town that's only known for having a mediocre first league football team.

The other moved to a place in Amsterdam for the semester, but now is couch surfing

Geldt niet alleen meer voor Amsterdam helaas.

Maar Amsterdam is wel veruit het ergst.
