Dear Amber Good day! Hope everything goes well with you. I will want to thank you for helping me to find a place in the Netherlands. As you know I am going to Amsterdam in October, I will be appreciated it if you can assist me to look for a shared house which is under one thousand Europe per month. And the area should not be too far from the town, as I will like to work in the city.
