Indy’s BLOG – Thinking about tomorrow!

It’s a very long story how we ended up in Badalona, but one year ago we relocated from Spain to Amsterdam, because Vil got a very nice job offer to be an internal cloud sales consultant for one of the biggest companies in the world. It was a very good job offer, but in the end, it didn’t work out.

We really struggled, we had no food, no job, no place to stay and Vil was seriously sick. But he didn’t give up, he fought and since then Vil was able to survive, his health is way better now and he even managed to score a job in one of the best companies in the world. He really likes his job, his manager likes him as well and after being very sick, he really wants to go back to work, but HOW?

Without a place for us, there is no way and if we don’t find a place he surely will lose his job soon. It’s a shitty situation. Since now we managed somehow to find places to sleep, live on very little money after we paid all bills, but now we run out of ideas. We are members of every website imaginable, we post on Facebook and on the intranet, but nothing, absolutely nothing. It’s frustrating.

All of this because of me! Vil could have way less ‘issues’, but he doesn’t want to give me up! Vil will never leave me alone. NEVER! As a result, on Monday, all our dreams will come to a shattering halt, we need to leave the place we stay right now and there is no place we can go.

All because we are not able to find an affordable and permanent place for us. STUPID! We tried literally everything, but somehow it’s not meant to be.

What will be? We have no idea and we might need to go back on the road, but we are not afraid about that, because we can stay together and that’s most important for us.

Indy’s BLOG – Looking for a place to stay ASAP!

** PLEASE SHARE! **

Please help us by sharing this post. Thank you!

tl;dr – We need a place as soon as possible and if not, we will end up on the streets! Seriously!

Living with a dog is not easy, but the best thing ever!

You surely know it’s nearly impossible to find affordable living space in the Amsterdam Area and if you are (with) a dog it’s even harder.

We are urgently looking for a new place to stay somewhere in the Amsterdam commuting area and we are virtually ok with everything because otherwise, we will literally end up on the streets.

Who are we?

We are Indy and Vil. Indy is 7 years old and she barks French and English, she is a really relaxed Labrador and Border Collie Mix. This is her blog.

I am her “tin opener’s” and my name is Vil, I am German, speak English, French and very little Dutch. I work on the phone in Amsterdam Sloterdeijk.

We are both clean, well educated and bark very rarely. 🙂

What?

Our dream would be a really nice flatshare with some friendly and happy mates because we like to share. We are ok with a room, a flat, a studio, a garage, a transporter van, an RV … or even a tent in your garden, you can be creative, it’s quite urgent.

We are ok with everything! We are ok with every duration, but we would prefer long-term with registration possible, but this is not mandatory

Seriously, when you are with a dog, it’s not easy to find a place, because most adverts on Facebook or Kamernet.NL, Facebook or Clawq refuse dogs. Facing this obstacle we are literally ok with everything, the place just needs to be affordable, dry and warm.

Really nice would be somewhere in the Amsterdam commuting area because Vil works in Sloterdeijk. He is ok to travel to work by train, Holland isn’t so big. 🙂

When?

ASAP! We could literally move in today. Right now we are on standby and Monday we will run out of ideas. Vil needs to go to work. You could say it’s a little seriously urgent because we are somehow on the streets. We don’t carry much stuff with us. Just a few bags, the doggie food and that’s it. 🙂

We need a place as soon as possible and if not, we will end up on the streets! Seriously!

[UPDATE: We are on the road now, sleeping on sofas!]

Indy’s BLOG – Moving Day! (AGAIN)

Vil just went to Bo-Rent to hire a little van for moving to Apeldoorn. The van was just 58.- Euro for 24 hours inclusive everything and way less than the 80 Euro last time Alfred exploited from us, but thanks god we don’t have to see this guy again anytime soon.

A colleague offered us to stay with him for a few weeks until we find something ‘better’. 🙂 and now everything is already packed and we are ready to go. Well, who thought that we will be again on the move so soon?

Indy’s BLOG – Leave as much damage as possible!

Alfred is gone, FINALLY!, but it wasn’t without a few final insults. We expected something to happen because he is the kind of character who needs to ‘win’ and he needs to have the last word. Allrite! Go for it.

Today he sends us an email and informed us that he corresponded directly with the agency and the landlord.

Well, what is that? All the time it’s our business to deal with the landlord and the agency and now? That’s just the last confirmation of his backstabbing intentions! 🙂

Don’t worry mate, we’ve got you covered! Check out -> www.the-mooch.com.

I don’t know what’s wrong with you, but it doesn’t matter anymore. You are one of the worst opportunistic freeloaders of all time and we just ask you to consider …

(1) When you threaten someone you better be sure you know whom you are talking to!
(2) Google yourself from time to time, you will be unpleasantly surprised in the near future. 🙂
(3) Guess how much nonsense someone could do with a copy of your passport.
(4) Guess how much damage someone could do with your BSN Number.
(5) Guess how much fun someone could have with the copies of your bills you left behind.

Come back from time to time and you will see yourself shouting and insulting everyone! You remember? We had a CCTV in the house! Naaaa,…… I don’t need to do this…. Or do I?

🙂

Indy’s BLOG – Finish the job!

When you sharing an apartment it’s crucial that everyone adheres to the rules of social understanding and treat each other with respect, but that’s not always the case, because sometimes you encounter someone behaving like living in a hotel.

Alfred is one of them. We invited him into our house because we thought that he might be a good flatmate, but we couldn’t be more wrong. He turned out to be the most unpleasant person we’ve ever met and in the end, he was lucky that we didn’t lose our temper because of a behaviour like this other people got a serious answer.

He did absolutely nothing in the flat, except causing stress and irritations. He took advantage of us, enjoyed our work organizing everything and just ‘parasited’, but when he wanted something for himself he was very persistent, actually penetrant. Numerous calls, texts and messages when he needed something, but everything else was ‘our business’.

Well, a few impressions. He cleans only ‘partially’, which means that he only ‘cleans’ his stuff and everything else need to be done by someone else. Like here, the dustbin was filled up and what did he do? Well, a new bag, but dump the full one near the bin and waiting for someone else to bring it down. He is living here for nearly two months and he actually doesn’t know how to open the bin outside.

Lazy TWAT!
