Rick needs a safe place to stay for 3 months

🇳🇱 Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands1,466 views
After a flood that wrecked my apartment, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a teacher's aide in Amsterdam and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing.
I'm looking for a spare room for 3 months. I can pay $300 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have three personal and work references.
I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

Hang in there. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless!
