Second that. I‘m from Germany and attended a conference at a an Evangelical Church in the Netherlands (in Ede: https://www.schuilplaats.net/) a couple months ago without having booked a place to stay. At the end of the last evening session, I simply asked the pastor if he could help me and sure enough, one church member offered me an entire vacation apartment that he owns for one night for free. This is not a suggestion to take advantage of their hospitality but I have to say that the people at the church were very open and welcoming to new people without displaying a missional agenda.



This not relevant at all to this thread but I was very pleasantly surprised to see my hometown and a church I am familiar with pop up here.

OP: If you can, do go there. I am not at all religious, and you don't have to, but this is a solid place to start.
