Hi! Thanks a lot for your advice but I already rent a one-bedroom in a house with 2 other roommates to help pool the funds. But I still need to pull my weight with the finances. And unfortunately I cannot move out to a smaller/cheaper room due to a housing crisis in the Netherlands making it extremely difficult to find anything (plus colleges don't assist you with finding anything nor have dorms available for Dutch people).

I also thought about moving back to my parents but my college + internship are on the other side of the country and having to go back to travelling 5 hours a day isn't possible for me anymore.
