I've already posted before but deleted account on .world because they are federated with anti-commie stuff so I moved my cheeks here.

I moved countries over three years ago when a homophobe moved into a flatshare I lived in and made me feel unsafe. I couldn't find housing anywhere else so when I got a job offer in another country I jumped in. Then after three years I couldn't find housing there and my landlord sold so I jumped on a job offer in another country. I have a month and a half to find housing but I've been already looking for the equivalent with no responses. I don't seek advice, I've been renting since I turned 18 and tried everything. It's extremely hard to rent anything when you have a foreign sounding name. Even in countries of which language I speak natively I got no responses or sparse, especially in comparison to people with local sounding names. My coworker who is a local found housing in a day. My non local coworkers struggle for months. One even paid someone a thousand euros just to have them recommend for housing.

I really dreamt of living alone in a tiny studio so I never have to fear homophobes in my own home again. I even applied for flatshares but also no response but I'd love to avoid them if possible. Queer flatshares tend to be borderline unsafe to live or you live with the landlord and I have bad experience where a gay landlord made advances towards me and the power imbalance and fear of homelessness is not fun...

I just needed to vent. Cheers.
