Hi! My name is Marta and I will be moving to the Netherlands soon to start my Master's degree at TU Delft. I'm currently looking for a room or studio or in Delft, Rotterdam, The Hague or nearby areas. A little about me: I'm easygoing, respectful, and tidy and I've been living with roommates for the past five years. Shared living has taught me the importance of communication, cleanliness, and being considerate of others. I enjoy a friendly atmosphere at home, while also respecting people's privacy and personal space. I'm a calm and responsible person who will be mainly focused on my studies. In my free time, I enjoy board games, exploring new places, and maintaining a good balance between work and relaxation. I am financially reliable, with a personal income from renting out my own apartment, and my mother can act as a guarantor if needed. I would be happy to provide any supporting documents. I'm looking for a place that feels comfortable and welcoming, and I would do my best to be a reliable and considerate tenant. Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction, and I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Marta

Hello, nice to meet you! My name is Misaki, a 31-year-old woman from Osaka, Japan. I am planning to move to the Netherlands this July with my two dogs under a freelance visa. I will be relocating to the Netherlands and expect a higher income shortly. To provide additional security, I am able to pay up to 6 months of rent in advance and can also provide proof of sufficient savings. And I’m looking for a place where I can live for a year. My dogs are Shetland Sheepdogs (medium-sized), both under 10 kg. I am a professional dog groomer and dog trainer, and my dogs are very well-trained. They do not chew furniture or damage the property. After walks, I always clean them properly before bringing them inside. I’ll wash them every two weeks to keep them clean. Once my freelance visa is approved, I will be working as a groomer five days a week. I plan to work at a salon where I can bring my dogs with me, so they will not be left alone at home. I do not smoke and I do not drink alcohol. I am a responsible and reliable tenant. I lived in the UK and Australia for a year each so I’ve used to live in abroad. I take off my shoes when entering the home and always keep the place clean and well-maintained. I will arrive in the Netherlands on July 17, but I am able to start paying rent immediately if needed. Thank you very much for your time and consideration. Kind regards, Misaki

English version above – Nederlandse versie hieronder. Hi, my name is Paul and I'm moving to the Netherlands to pursue my Master's in Design for Interaction at TU Delft – a dream I've been working towards for a long time. I'm originally from Germany, studied and worked in Design in Weimar, and I'm someone who genuinely loves shared living. I've lived in shared apartments for 5 years, so I know what makes it work: mutual respect, clear boundaries, being there for each other, and keeping shared spaces clean and comfortable. Living together well is something I take seriously – and enjoy. Outside of studies I love cycling, hiking, sitting in cafés, and exploring new places. I'm looking forward to building a real home, not just a temporary stay. What I bring along: a great vinyl/CD collection, useful household appliances, and furniture for shared spaces if needed. Financially I'm well set up: I have savings and will be working part-time alongside my studies, so rent is covered reliably and on time. I'd love to meet you and hopefully become part of your home. Paul Hoi, mijn naam is Paul en ik kom binnenkort naar Nederland om mijn Master Design for Interaction te studeren aan de TU Delft – al lange tijd mijn grote droom. Ik kom uit Duitsland, heb Design gestudeerd en gewerkt in Weimar, en ik ben iemand die echt houdt van samenwonen. Ik woon al 8 jaar in WG's, dus ik weet wat belangrijk is: respect voor elkaar, duidelijke grenzen, er zijn voor elkaar en de gedeelde ruimtes netjes houden. Goed samenwonen is iets wat ik serieus neem – en ook gewoon leuk vind. Buiten mijn studie hou ik van fietsen, wandelen, in cafés zitten en nieuwe plekken ontdekken. Ik leer ook Nederlands, dus ik hoop snel een beetje mee te kunnen praten! Wat ik meeneem: een mooie cd-collectie, handige huishoudelijke apparaten en eventueel meubels voor de gemeenschappelijke ruimtes. Financieel sta ik er goed voor: ik heb spaargeld en ga naast mijn studie parttime werken, dus de huur wordt altijd op tijd betaald. Ik zou jullie graag leren kennen – en wie weet worden we binnenkort huisgenoten. Paul

Mijn naam is Liv (21) en ik studeer Advertising & Beyond aan de Willem de Kooning Academie. Ik hou van fotografie, graphic design en theater. Momenteel woon ik in Den Haag, maar samen met mijn goede vriendin en klasgenoot Rhiannon (19) ben ik op zoek naar een woning in Rotterdam, zodat wij dichter bij onze opleiding kunnen wonen en ons daar voor langere tijd kunnen vestigen. Rhiannon komt oorspronkelijk uit Ierland en woont inmiddels al een jaar zelfstandig in Rotterdam. We zijn netjes, georganiseerd en hechten veel waarde aan een rustige leefomgeving. We vinden het leuk om tijd door te brengen met vrienden maar we vinden een kalm huis ook belangrijk en houden we altijd rekening met onze buren. Naast onze studie hebben wij allebei een stabiele bijbaan. Rhiannon werkt in een Ierse pub en ik werk in het weekend bij conceptstore Voorlopig. We kunnen beiden inkomensbewijzen aanleveren en indien gewenst kunnen onze ouders garant staan. We zijn verantwoordelijke huurders en gaan zorgvuldig om met onze woonruimte. Wij zouden idealiter rond juli/augustus willen verhuizen, willen ons beiden inschrijven op het adres en kunnen alle benodigde documenten snel aanleveren. Daarnaast roken we niet en hebben we geen huisdieren. Graag stellen wij ons verder persoonlijk aan u voor tijdens een bezichtiging.
