Hi everyone! We’re looking for a new roommate to join our home. Queer and POC friendly.

Location: Amsterdam South-East / Diemen Zuid
Nearest metro & train stations: Diemen Zuid and Bijlmer Arena
Bus stop right around the corner (Echtenstein)
Room size: approx. 18 m2
Rent: €400 incl.

You’ll be sharing the house with:

-Mika (26, she/they), master’s student in Gender Studies. I enjoy baking, hiking, gardening, watching movies, exercising and spending time on creative hobbies like painting and ceramics. I’m a big cat lover and also enjoy quiet moments with a cup of tea. As a roommate I’m pretty chill, at home relatively often, and I value a calm, clean, and tidy living space. I also like sharing food!

-Alla (30, she/her), student at the Academy of Theater and Dance and works as a massage therapist. In love with plants, walks, spontaneous activities. I like a chill, attentive and respectful atmosphere at home.

-Mika’s cat Cheddar: he’s a sweetie, but very shy and anxious so he mostly stays in Mika’s room. It is important to us that the new roommate is comfortable with cats.

Who we’re looking for:
-Someone 23+, preferably women or non-binary/genderqueer people
-Someone who has lived independently in shared housing before and preferably someone in a later/advanced phase of their studies
-Calm, respectful and considerate
-Very important: clean and mindful of shared spaces
-Comfortable with and kind to cats (preferably some experience with cats)
-Preferably no pets (Cheddar gets easily threatened lol)

We’re planning viewings on:
-Monday 19 January from 19:30
-Wednesday 21 January from 17:30
-Sunday 25 January from 17:00

If this sounds like a good fit, please send a short introduction about yourself including the following topics:
-Who you are
-What you study
-Your living habits
-Your experience with cats
-How long you intend to stay (depending on your study)
-Your availability for the viewings
