(English version below!) Hallo! Mijn naam is Mika en ik ben een student uit Duitsland die vanaf het komende herfstsemester de bacheloropleiding Civiele Techniek aan de Universiteit Twente in Enschede zal beginnen. Ik word financieel ondersteund door zowel mijn eigen spaargeld als door mijn ouders, die ook bereid zijn garant te staan voor eventuele huurcontracten. Ik ben erg dankbaar dat ik op hun steun kan rekenen. Een beetje over mij als persoon: mijn hobby’s zijn zwemmen, bordspellen, programmeren en videogames. Daarnaast speel ik graag een potje sudoku of schaak wanneer ik daar de tijd voor heb. Ik heb voor Nederland gekozen vanwege de wereldwijd erkende expertise op het gebied van civiele techniek. De Universiteit Twente sprak mij in het bijzonder aan vanwege de unieke campusomgeving en de zeer internationale studentenpopulatie. Ik zou mezelf omschrijven als een zeer verantwoordelijke en georganiseerde persoon. Ik vind het belangrijk om gedeelde ruimtes netjes te houden, mijn eigen rommel op te ruimen en ervoor te zorgen dat huishoudelijke taken op tijd worden gedaan. Ik geloof dat rekening houden met elkaar en betrouwbaar zijn belangrijke eigenschappen zijn bij het samenwonen. Momenteel ben ik Nederlands aan het leren, hoewel ik nog niet op een niveau ben waarop ik vloeiend gesprekken kan voeren. Toch ben ik optimistisch dat ik de taal relatief snel onder de knie zal krijgen, mede doordat Duits mijn moedertaal is en de talen veel overeenkomsten hebben. Ik zou het erg waarderen als jullie mij zouden willen overwegen als toekomstige huisgenoot. Ik kijk ernaar uit om jullie mogelijk te ontmoeten en deel uit te maken van een gezellig huishouden! Met vriendelijke groet, Mika --- Hello! My name is Mika, and I am a student from Germany who will be starting my Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering at the University of Twente in Enschede this coming fall semester. I am financially supported through both my personal savings and my parents, who are also willing to act as guarantors for any rental agreements. I am very grateful to have their support. A little bit about me as a person: My hobbies include swimming, board games, programming, and video games. I also enjoy a good game of Sudoku or chess whenever I have the time. I chose the Netherlands because of its world-renowned expertise in the field of civil engineering, and I was especially drawn to the University of Twente because of its unique campus environment and highly international student community. I would describe myself as a very responsible and organized person. I take pride in keeping shared spaces clean, cleaning up after myself, and making sure household tasks are completed on time. I believe that being considerate and reliable is an important part of living together. I am currently learning Dutch, although I am not yet at a conversational level. However, since German is my native language, I am optimistic that I will be able to pick it up relatively quickly with some practice and immersion. I would be very happy if you would consider me as a potential future roommate. I look forward to the possibility of meeting you and becoming part of a friendly household! Kind regards, Mika

Hoi! Mijn naam is Sasha, ik ben 19 en ik ga volgend schooljaar diergeneeskunde studeren in Utrecht, dus ben ik erg geïnteresseerd in een woning! Ik verhuis vanuit Hong Kong omdat ik daar momenteel mijn tussenjaar heb. Ik heb mijn gymnasium diploma in 2025 afgerond op het Erasmiaans in Rotterdam en ik kan weer naar Nederland verhuizen vanaf juli of augustus. Ik ben geboren in China en ben half Chinees, dus ik spreek zelf ook Chinees, vandaar mijn tussenjaar in Hong Kong. Ik ben een sociaal persoon, ik houd van gezellige avonden met vrienden, en voor de rest is badmintonnen mijn passie, vorig jaar was ik nog Nederlands kampioen in mijn leeftijd.

Hi, ik ben Isa, 18 en ga binnenkort beginnen met mijn studie in Groningen. Ik kom uit Ede en heb dus dringend een kamer nodig, op en neer reizen is namelijk niet mogelijk (reistijd van 2,5u) :) Ik doe graag sporten, hou van gezelligheid en vind het leuk om nieuwe mensen en plekken te ontdekken!

Hi, my name is Martin. I'm a 20 years old student male. My budget is € 700 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

My name is Michał (Michael), and I’m interested in renting a room for at least a year starting in August. I’m 18 years old, and I come to Eindhoven from Kraków, Poland, to study Applied Mathematics at TU/e. I am fluent in English and Polish and I would love to start learning Dutch while living in Eindhoven! At the moment I am self-employed as an online tutor of Mathematics and English for primary school students and I plan to continue doing this through my studies along a stationary job in Eindhoven. I’m a clean, organized, and quiet person who does not smoke or drink. In my free time, I love watching films (my recent favorites include Challengers, Dog Day Afternoon, and Before Sunrise) and discovering new music of almost any genre. I am open to making new friendships and spending time together, either studying or relaxing!

Hi, my name is Simon. I'm a 27 years old student male. My budget is € 1200 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

Hi there! 👋🏼 My name is Ines. I am originally from Bulgaria, and I grew up in Spain (I lived there for 10 years), and I have been in the Netherlands for about 7 years now. I came here for my studies, and last year I graduated from my MSc in Finance and Investments at RSM in Rotterdam. Currently, I work in M&A Deals Advisory at a Big Four firm, and due to my long commutes for work, I am looking to move to Amsterdam for the long term. I would describe myself as easygoing, tidy, and considerate of others. I value a clean and comfortable shared space, and I am someone who communicates openly and respectfully. I enjoy having a friendly connection with housemates, whether it's having dinner or doing something together occasionally, but I also respect everyone's need for personal space and quiet time. In my daily life, I am quite active, and I keep a balance between working, studying- currently I am intensively learning Dutch, as well as relaxing. In my free time, I enjoy doing different sports such as running, playing tennis, or kickboxing. I also enjoy exploring places around the city, such as cafes or restaurants with friends. What I am really looking for is a place with a good atmosphere, where people are friendly and mindful of each other. I take good care of the place I live in and always aim to be a pleasant and trustworthy housemate.

I am a responsible ICT student at Fontys University of Applied Sciences in Eindhoven. I am currently looking for an apartment. I am a quiet and tidy person and a reliable tenant. I have a part-time job and also receive financial support from DUO. I am planning to continue supporting myself while studying and working in Eindhoven.

My name is Basile, I’m a 19-year-old PPLE student at the University of Amsterdam. I’m French-Australian, clean, responsible, and easygoing, and I’m currently looking for a comfortable place in Amsterdam any time from now. I have a stable source of income through family and can provide all necessary documentation immediately.

Ik ben Ulrike, 27 jaar oud en werk als Brand Marketeer bij een online media publisher in Haarlem. In augustus verhuis ik terug naar Amsterdam na 2 jaar in Barcelona te hebben gewoond! Even kort over mezelf: - Ik doe veel aan hardlopen (soms ook een wedstrijdje) - Ik ben gek op honden (favorieten: Tollers, Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Cocker Spaniels) - Ik houd me graag bezig met wijn (om te drinken, maar heb ook veel wijnkennis die ik graag zo vaak mogelijk inzet haha) - Ik vind het heel leuk om (samen) te koken, musea te bezoeken en nieuwe restaurants te proberen! Barcelona was voor dat laatste echt het walhalla, maar heb heel veel zin om alle nieuwe restaurants in Amsterdam ook te gaan afstrepen. Ik ben sociaal, positief en zelfstandig en vind het leuk om af en toe samen te eten, een glas wijn te drinken of iets te ondernemen. Minstens zo belangrijk vind ik een huis waarin je achter jezelf opruimt en rekening houdt met elkaar. Na 8 jaar met verschillende huisgenoten te hebben gewoond, weet ik dat ik dat erg belangrijk vind en zoek ik een plek waar ik me echt thuis kan voelen! Ik ben zelf inmiddels geen groot feestbeest meer en zoek ook geen huis waar regelmatig feestjes worden gegeven.

Hi! I'm Diya from India and an incoming Master's student in AI at the University of Amsterdam. I'm looking for a place in or around Amsterdam, preferably with my own bedroom and bathroom. I'm a responsible, organized, and tidy person who likes to keep shared spaces clean and comfortable. In my free time, I enjoy going to the gym, cooking, and anything creative or artsy. I am also pretty social and love meeting new people :) Hence I am open to roommates who are friendly and have similar housekeeping habits.

My name is Ibimina, a 44yr old woman and mother who was fortunate enough to be awarded a scholarship from the University of Utrecht and would be starting this September with Social Health and Organizational Psychology. I was audacious enough to pivot career paths from Real Estate Management to Psychology in my 40s. I feel so proud of myself and so pumped up to start off this new academic year. I love meeting new people, sharing and learning together to make impact wherever I find myself.

Dear Sir or Madam, I believe I would make an excellent, reliable tenant, and I'd like to explain why. I am Grethe, a first-year student at the University of Amsterdam, currently enrolled in Politics, Psychology, Law and Economics (PPLE). I am looking for a stable home to call mine for the next 1-2 years while I complete my studies. I am a non-smoker, have no pets, and am respectful of neighbours and property. I fully understand that student income can raise questions, so I want to be upfront: my father acts as my financial guarantor. This means the monthly rent would be covered reliably from day one, backed by a financially stable adult. I am happy to provide guarantor statements, proof of income, bank statements, and any other documentation you require. I would be very grateful for the opportunity to attend a viewing and introduce myself in person. Please let me know if you are available. I am flexible and happy to work around your schedule. Thank you for your time and consideration. Warm regards, Grethe
