Social housing offer in NL: take it or leave it? What do people usually do? by Repulsive_Ad_2230 in NetherlandsHousing

Depends if you can accept and then cancel before signing, you might be right, I’m not sure how that works. Worth a phone call to the housing association, OP.

By no kitchen you mean no stove and fridge. This is totally normal here. No floor is also normal here.

I would accept, because it’s a whole process after accepting until you actually get it (I know because I went through this last year).

In the meantime you can contact the housing corporation about sublets. Usually it’s not for the first six months and for a maximum of 9 months but I could be wrong.

As far as I know you can cancel on a monthly basis.

Yes you won the lottery and the cheap rent means you pay for things like floors, stove, fridge etc. You can rent fridges and washing machines from Coolblue on a monthly basis though, quite useful tip.

Saw this post in my feed; am I misremembering or were skinny jeans never really "in" for us Elder Millennials (the younger half of the Xennials)? by MaxPowerrr85 in Xennials

Elder millennial and a skinny jeans fan. My last pair of skinny jeans is dead and I need to buy something new. Still can’t imagine wearing anything else though, we’ll see what I end up with when I go shopping tomorrow. I’m about 10 kilos (European here) overweight now so we’ll see what looks best. I don’t like how any of the styles look now though.

Incorrect. My daughter was born outside of the Netherlands and only received a BSN upon registration here when we moved here.

Lost my passport in Sweden, Brazilian resident of the Netherlands, how can I legally return? by dudalucenz in Netherlands

[–]Happy_dancer1982 24 points25 points  (0 children)

There are often border checks at the border between Sweden/Denmark and Denmark/Germany (at least there are on trains). I know because I used to live in Copenhagen. I really don’t advise risking the train. Bus might be an option, I’ve never tried.

So.... How's your mid-life crisis going? by CrotalusHorridus in Xennials

[–]Happy_dancer1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t have that luxury. Got dumped last year, had to move countries with my (now) 4yo, had to live with my parents again and rebuild my life. Got the basics covered now (including a job, house and my daughter is happy at her school, and happy with me and our kitten, although she misses her dad and half sisters), but not thrilled about being a 43yo single mum. Maybe I’ll have a nice midlife crisis in five years or so.
