My name is Alina. I am 18 years old and from Croatia. This September, I will be starting my higher education at Eindhoven University of Technology, and I am looking for an apartment or a studio to call home while settling into life in Eindhoven. Although it will be my first time living independently for a longer period of time, I have had many opportunities to experience taking care of myself over the past few years. I like to spend some of my free time outdoors, playing sports and hanging out with my friends, so when I am home, I value a clean and calm environment, for both my own well-being and out of respect for the space itself. I also enjoy indoor hobbies such as bracelet-making, so at home, I am a quiet and responsible person who respects shared areas and neighbours. Currently, as a student, I do not have a permanent source of income, so my parents will be supporting me financially throughout the next few years. I am flexible regarding the move-in date and duration of the stay.

Hello, I am Pamela and I am 19 years old and originally from Bulgaria. I am currently a first-year ICT student at Fontys University of Applied Sciences and I am looking for a new place to live as my current rental contract expires at the end of July. My rent and living expenses are fully supported by my parents, who can also act as guarantors if required. I can provide proof of financial support and any other necessary documents upon request. In my free time, I enjoy gaming and spending time with friends. I am focused on my studies and looking for a comfortable place to live. I would be happy to provide any additional information if needed and look forward to hearing from you.

Hoi, ik ben op korte termijn op zoek naar een leuke plek voor mezelf of samen met mijn vriend in Groningen! Ik ben een nette, rustige huurder die momenteel in Utrecht aan het afstuderen is, en heb erg veel zin om op korte termijn in Noord-Nederland aan de slag te kunnen, vanuit een fijne thuisbasis.

I will be starting my master’s degree at TU Delft this September. I am looking for a clean and quiet place to stay during my studies. I am a responsible and respectful person who keeps things tidy and will not cause any disturbances. I do not smoke or drink, and I value a peaceful living environment. I would be very grateful if you would consider me as a tenant, and I am happy to provide any documents or references you may need.

Hi, i’m Boris, im 19.. A future student at TU/E, starting 2026. I am friendly, open-minded, tidy and nice. My favourite hobbies are volleyball and cooking. I wouldn’t say i’m a party person, but i like going out from time to time. Im fond of the idea of having roommates, being able to hang out and having a meal together sometimes.

Dear landlord, I am doing my masters degree in musculoskeletal physiotherapy in Vrije university. I am currently searching for accommodation. I am an open, friendly person who has experience living in student housing so I'm familiar with all the unwritten rules.

Hii, ik ben Maud 😊 Ik ben 23 jaar oud en studeer momenteel de master Global Markets and Local Creativities aan de Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam (een beetje te vergelijken met politiek en entrepreneurship 😉). Na mijn bachelor Liberal Arts and Sciences aan de University College Groningen ben ik nu bezig met een tweejarige master, waarvoor ik vanaf augustus/september op zoek ben naar een kamer in (de omgeving van) Rotterdam. Ik ben geboren in Amsterdam, maar heb ook een groot deel van mijn jeugd in Zweden en China gewoond. Toen ik 11 was verhuisde mijn familie eerst naar Zweden en later naar Shanghai, waardoor ik ben opgegroeid in een internationale omgeving en al vanaf jonge leeftijd Engelstalig onderwijs heb gevolgd. Mijn ouders en jongere broertjes wonen tegenwoordig in Malmö, waar ik deze zomer ook verblijf. In mijn vrije tijd sport ik graag, ga ik naar culturele evenementen en spreek ik af met vrienden. Tijdens mijn studententijd in Groningen heb ik gevoetbald bij een vriendenteam van de universiteit en gewerkt naast mijn studie. Tegenwoordig besteed ik veel tijd aan mijn master, die behoorlijk intensief is, waardoor ik regelmatig in de bibliotheek te vinden ben. Daarom ben ik ook een rustige huisgenoot die waarde hecht aan een fijne en prettige woonsfeer. Momenteel verblijf ik dus in Malmö, waardoor ik niet altijd in staat ben om fysiek langs te komen voor een bezichtiging. Een online kennismaking of videocall zou daarom ideaal zijn. Groetjes, Maud

Hey there! My name is Patrick van Dijk. I am Dutch-Australian, raised on the Gold Coast in Australia with my parents and two sisters in a household where languages, conversation, and curiosity were just part of daily life. Growing up, watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S and Gilmore Girls almost felt like a kind of religious ritual in our house, and Friday nights were often spent having long, slightly too deep conversations about religion, philosophy, or politics (despite none of us really knowing that much about any of these things). It was a home that was warm, talkative, and very full of ideas, but also clean, structured, and responsible. My dad used to vacuum at 7am on Saturdays, which I definitely found irritating as a kid, but it also instilled in me a strong respect for tidy spaces and the idea that household responsibilities are just part of life, even if I personally prefer pushing the vacuuming to a more reasonable Saturday afternoon. I am moving to Leiden in 2026 to begin my Master’s in International Relations at Leiden University, after completing my BA in History and German at the University of Queensland. I speak English natively, German after three years of university study, Dutch at a conversational to semi-fluent level (and I am very motivated to become fully fluent during my time in Leiden), and a little Spanish from a year of study. I genuinely love languages and what they open up socially and culturally, so I am always excited to meet housemates from different backgrounds, learn new words, and understand how other people see the world. During my undergraduate years, I lived in a residential student complex of around 600 students and worked as a Residential Advisor. That experience taught me how to navigate busy shared living environments, support others when needed, and maintain a calm, respectful, and functional community. It also taught me how important it is to lead by example in small, everyday ways such as keeping shared spaces clean, being considerate of others’ routines, and contributing to a positive atmosphere. In a house, I am very social and genuinely enjoy being part of a shared rhythm of life. I like kitchen conversations that turn into long discussions, shared dinners, and spontaneous moments where people actually connect rather than just pass each other. I will absolutely send you stupid reels I find funny, and I am someone who naturally asks questions about people’s lives, families, interests, and goals for the future. I enjoy getting to know people properly, not just at surface level. At the same time, I am very steady and reliable in how I live. I am someone who is perpetually early, sometimes to a fault, and I tend to get deeply focused on what I am doing, often hyperfixating on study or projects. I also have ADHD and some ongoing chronic health issues, which has made me very intentional about pacing myself, building routines, and maintaining balance in how I live day to day to avoid burnout. Because of this, I am quite structured in practice even if I am naturally energetic and curious. What sums me up best is that my ideal Sunday morning is waking up between 7 and 8, making a big breakfast (perhaps poached eggs, spinach, fried mushrooms and sourdough) and slowly easing into the day around the kitchen table. There would usually be reading, news, and conversation if housemates are around. Later I would take a train somewhere new, visit a museum or gallery, have lunch in a café, and spend time journaling or reading. I would bring my camera and spend a few hours wandering and taking photos of everyday life, then ideally end the day watching the sunset somewhere with a glass of wine, before heading home for a cosy dinner and a film, and being in bed by around 10, ready for the week ahead. What I am looking for is a house that feels alive but also grounded. A place where people share moments in the kitchen, respect each other’s space, and take both fun and responsibility seriously in their own way. I am very comfortable in shared living environments and genuinely enjoy contributing to a household both socially and practically, whether that is cooking, cleaning, or simply being an engaged and present housemate.

Ik ben Mayté, 22 jaar. Ik ben van België🇧🇪🇬🇭 en studeer af als grafisch vormgever. Het laatste jaar van mijn Bachelor heb ik in Utrecht gewoond en wil graag in Nederland blijven wonen. Ik ben een rustige, sociale en propere huisgenoot en heb al eerder met 4 huisgenoten samengewoond.
