Hi, My name is Katharina, I’m 20 years old and currently living in Cologne, Germany. I will start studying Physiotherapy at Saxion University of Applied Sciences in September and am therefore looking for an apartment or a room in Enschede. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, going to the gym, and being outdoors. One of my biggest passions is baking, and I also love skiing. I would describe myself as friendly, reliable, and easy to live with. I value a clean and comfortable living environment and enjoy a good balance between socializing and having quiet time. At the same time, I’m looking for roommates who enjoy spending time together, whether that’s having a chat in the kitchen, sharing a meal, or occasionally doing activities together. Thank you for considering my application. Hope to hear from you soon! Katharina

Ik ben 23 jaar en rond komende zomer mijn master Molecular Life Sciences af aan Wageningen University & Research. Vanaf september start ik als PhD student aan de Radboud Universiteit in Nijmegen. Daarom ben ik op zoek naar een zelfstandige woonruimte (studio of appartement) in Nijmegen vanaf de zomer. Ik ben rustig, netjes en niet-roker. In Wageningen heb ik 5,5 jaar in een zelfstandige studio gewoond en momenteel verblijf ik tijdelijk in Denemarken voor een onderzoeksstage.

Hi! I’m Dimitris, 17, from Greece. In September I will start the Preparatory Year in Jazz Saxophone at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam (CvA), and I’m looking for a room from August/September onward. I’m searching in Amsterdam, Haarlem, Zaandam, Amstelveen and nearby areas. About me: non-smoker tidy and respectful social but calm financially supported by my parents (guarantors) Although I study music, I always practice at the Conservatory practice rooms, so I keep home quiet and clean. I’m open to both shared apartments and host families, and I’m looking for a place with registration. Budget: around €750–900 depending on location. Feel free to message me — I’d be happy to introduce myself further!

I am a quite and clean person, who enjoys reading books and waching movies. I want to be able to register to the address, as I am planning on getting a job too.

Beste, Mijn naam is Chun en samen met mijn vriend ben ik op zoek naar een fijn appartement in Arnhem om samen te gaan wonen. Op dit moment studeer ik Tuin en landschapsinrichting op de hogeschool Van Hall Larenstein in Velp. En verwacht in September af te gaan studeren. Ik ben graag buiten en hou ervan om actief bezig te zijn. Zo zijn een aantal hobby's van mij hardlopen, boulderen en surfen in Spanje : ) Mijn vriend Klaas werkt op dit moment bij het openbaar ministerie als jurist. Ook hij houd van buiten te zijn en een rondje te rennen in het Sonsbeekpark. We hebben op dit moment een hele lieve kat ed die niet voor overlast zorgt en zouden deze graag mee willen nemen. Is dit niet mogelijk dan kunnen we nog kijken naar een andere oplossing voor hem.

Hello, I am a PhD Researcher at UMC Utrecht at the department of pediatric neurology with a 3-years contract. I am already renting a room, however, I URGENTLY need a bigger apartment to accommodate my future wife after our wedding scheduled in August. My partner is a pharmacist, and she is willing to start her master's studies in the Netherlands. Hence, we are in an urgent need for a bigger place for both of us. We have no children, no pets, and we do not smoke. We are a very calm, responsible, and educated couple I will appreciate if you give us a chance to view your house Many thanks in advance, and hope to see you soon! Regards, Daoud

Dear Housing Committee, My name is Maverick, and I am an international student who will soon begin my studies at the University of Twente. I am writing to express my interest in moving into your housing. As someone who values independence, I enjoy living quietly and responsibly. I do not smoke or drink, and I prefer a calm environment where I can focus on my studies and personal growth. At the same time, I am open-minded and respectful of others, which I believe makes me a considerate housemate. Choosing this housing would provide me with a supportive and stable place to live while I adapt to life in the Netherlands. It would allow me to balance my academic journey with a comfortable and peaceful home. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of joining your community.

Hee, ik ben Joep(22), masterstudent en ben dit jaar begonnen aan de ME master high tech track. Mijn dagelijks leven laat zich het best omschrijven als “go with the flow”. Staat er wind, dan ga ik windsurfen; ligt er sneeuw, dan sta ik op ski’s of een snowboard; schijnt de zon, dan ga ik hardlopen, hockeyen of chillen bij Plankenkoorts; en bij slecht weer ben ik vaak in de boulderhal te vinden. En ja—als er een deadline is, duik ik ook de boeken in. Op dit moment ben ik opnieuw op zoek naar een kamer, omdat mijn huisbaas heeft besloten over te stappen van studenten naar gezinnen. Voor mijn huidige kamer heb ik al op twee andere plekken gewoont, dus samenwonen is voor mij niets nieuws. Ik kook graag en heb ervaring met vegetarisch en glutenvrij eten—ik heb dus al de nodige recepten paraat. Zelf eet ik alles wat de pot schaft. Ik hoor graag van je terug en een fijne dag gewenst, Joep

Hello! My name is Nick, I am dutch. I'm looking for a nice place to live in Utrecht! I'm 29 years old and work as an engineer at a design agency and startup for urban mobility. I'm an enthusiastic glider pilot, adventurous hiker, amateur cyclist and ice-skater, and learning to kite surf. On top of that, I spend a lot of time working on my classic Volvo Amazon, which I'm restoring together with a friend of mine. Oh yeah, and I also have a camper van that I occasionally take out on trips! So yes, quite a busy life — which is why I'm looking for a relaxed home where I can unwind and enjoy a cosy homely atmosphere. Somewhere where we get to know each other well and catch up about what's going on in life and do fun things together. Where everyone is accepted and people drop by every now and then. Where we're all free to live our own lives without too many obligations. Ideally, I'd love to live with other working people who also have the working lifestyle — a student life no longer suits me. I appreciate it when a home is kept tidy and clean, that how I live myself. So does this sound like someone who fits in your home? Then I'd love to come by and get to know you! Hope to hear from you soon.

I'm Stella and I'm 22 years old. My partner (Chris, 24 years old) and I are searching for an apartment in the area of Amsterdam. We are from Greece and both of us are starting our master's degree in Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in September. We are quiet, responsible and respectful tenants. During our stay, we are also planning to work part-time alongside our studies. We are looking for a comfortable place to stay long-term and would be happy to provide any additional information if needed.

Ik zal mij even voorstellen: Ik ben Anne een gezellige Medische Biologie student aan het Radboud. Ik zit aan het einde van mijn studie en heb sinds de start van mijn master in Nijmegen op kamers gewoond. Ik heb een boel verschillende hobbies waaronder: theater, haken , lezen, wandelen en af en toe gezellig een drankje doen!

Hi everyone! My name is Juan, I am 21 years old, and I am moving to the Netherlands this August to begin my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) at TU Delft. I have already fully finalized my university registration, paid my financial guarantee, and secured my student visa, so my finances and paperwork are 100% stable and ready to go. A bit about me: I am currently finishing up my mandatory military service in the South Korean Air Force. Because of this, I am incredibly disciplined, highly value a clean and structured living environment, and deeply respect house rules, shared chores, and quiet hours. When I’m not diving into coding projects or studying, I’m a big PC gamer (I love complex strategy games), a massive sports and Formula 1 fan, and I really enjoy creative writing. I also love cooking and trying out new recipes. What I am looking for: I am looking for a room or studio for at least 6 to 12 months (ideally longer). As a housemate, I am quiet and independent when it's time to focus on a demanding engineering degree, but I am also highly social and love a home with good chemistry—whether that means sharing a meal, watching a race/match together, playing board games, or having deep conversations over coffee. I am a strict non-smoker and do not bring any pets. Since I am currently wrapping up my military service abroad, I cannot attend in-person viewings immediately, but I am fully available and happy to jump on a video call (Zoom, WhatsApp, Teams) to introduce myself properly! Looking forward to finding a great place to stay! Best regards, Juan

Hi, my name is David. I'm a 49 years old working male. My budget is € 1000 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

Hey, ik ben Maud en ga aankomend jaar beginnen aan de studie Forensisch Onderzoek aan de Hogeschool Saxion. Ik ben een sportieve enthousiaste meid die af en toe van een biertje houdt (had je misschien al gezien op de foto;)). Ik vind het heerlijk om met vrienden onder het genot van een drankje en een hapje leuke gesprekken te voeren en spelletjes te spelen. Ik vind het altijd leuk om samen te koken en om het uiteraard samen op te eten. Ik hoop een gezellig studentenhuis te vinden waarbij iedereen lekker zichzelf mag zijn.

Ik ben een nette, rustige man van 39 jaar, fulltime werkend in de hospitality sector. Woonachtig in Amsterdam sinds 2005. Ik ben op zoek naar een fijn appartement in Amsterdam, dat per direct of op korte termijn beschikbaar is. Stabiliteit en een rustige thuisbasis zijn, na mijn relatiebreuk voor mij erg belangrijk. Ik ben netjes, betrouwbaar en zorg goed voor mijn leefomgeving. Ik hoor graag of deze woning beschikbaar is voor bezichtiging! Met vriendelijke groet, Maurice

I am a Master’s student in Aerospace Engineering at TU Delft, currently living in Delft. I am originally from the Canary Islands, Spain, and previously completed my Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering at TU Eindhoven. Outside of my studies, I enjoy spending time with friends, being outdoors, and doing sports. I have an international group of friends and speak fluent English, so I enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds. I have lived in shared accommodation before, including with both students and working professionals, and I have always had a very good experience. I am respectful, tidy, and easy to live with. I value a clean and calm living environment, and I have never been late with rent or payments. I am looking for a comfortable place where I can focus on my studies while also contributing to a friendly and respectful household.

I am Kayde, searching for a place to rent while I study in the Netherlands. My preferred rent is about 900 euros a month.
