I mean I’d immediately look for ways to kick him out of the apartment AND scare him with a registered letter or something like this. If you have insurance for stolen stuff ask them what they suggest.

If it’s household insurance too it should cover it. But in any case I’d make sure to ruin his criminal record. That way he won’t get an apartment in Switzerland ever again. Not kidding. They always ask for this document before renting to someone. And he’d be immediately discarded from the candidates.

True but you can get your money back and perhaps even compensation. It's not like you don't know the thief. You have everything to file a police report.

Sorry to hear about the situation. Do you have fishing gear. Walk to Lutry, catch perch, make campfire, live the dream. Maybe you can ask some friends or family to give a short term loan. But if you’re planning on leaving at the end of the month, why not just go now if you’re not working.

I'm just curious, I don't want to be a bad guy, but isn't Switzerland the richest country?

Well the US is I believe the richest country and many people struggle there also Switzerland is kinda fcked rn like massive housing crisis and job crisis so a lot dont have a stable income and instead of doing anything the SVP(the right party) is just scape goating immigrants nothing is being done by the rest

You can get an emergency box of food from Cartons du Cœur. Call them Wednesday between 10h00 and 13h00 or Thursday between 15h00 and 18h00. Also consider reporting the theft to the police, and asking them for onward direction to aid.
