Keep a roof over Camilla's head in Stockholm
After a sudden layoff, Camilla is 5 months behind on rent and has a notice to vacate from the landlord.
🇸🇪 Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden2,358 views
When the hotel closed in February, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,750.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by May, we must leave.
I have a teenager still in school 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 weekend shifts, 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 $3,750 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $2,600
• Late fees and court costs: $260
• Utilities in arrears: $175
• First month of rent as a buffer: $715
With deep gratitude,
Camilla

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Stockholm.
Thank you. If you're in Stockholm I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
Wishing you peace, Camilla. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless.
Best of luck, Camilla. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Stockholm.
