This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I live in this. I pay 500€ rent, in one of Europe's most densely populated areas. I commute to work by bicycle, and I can take walks into the forest with my cats till we get too close to the Alpaka Farm, cause they're afraid of the alpakas.
Unfortunately, we're getting thrown out this year, and looking at 3x the rent for something worse which is further away.

It’s so rare you can have cats who will walk with you. I used to have one like that.

Where in Europe's densest areas can you rent anything for 500€?

Nowhere if the stars don't align.
I live in Heidelberg, Germany.
This house is worth 3-4x more.
But my landlady is a little special. She lives in a hippie commune in another country, is fighting with depression and simply didn't want to deal with the house at all.
So that was the deal, we could live there for cheap, I fix stuff myself and never bother her with anything.

Serves you well for rubbing it in our collective faces.

Sorry for your fate.
