Piraeus
When my hours were cut in half in May, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,350. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, we must leave. I have a toddler and a baby at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. I have started working evenings as a cleaner, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $1,350 goes: โ€ข Rent arrears (4 months): $820 โ€ข Late fees and court costs: $75 โ€ข Utilities in arrears: $80 โ€ข First month of rent as a buffer: $375 Thanks for reading all this. - Irini

    hope things get better soon, Irini. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
