Hi! I’m Lucas, 18, and I’ll be starting my Mechanical Engineering bachelor's at the University of Twente this September. I’m originally from the U.S., but I’ve mostly lived in Argentina and Italy, so I’m very comfortable in international environments and enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds. I’m easygoing, social, and looking for a friendly house where people like to spend time together. I enjoy cooking with others, playing cards or board games, or just hanging out in the evenings. I’m respectful of shared spaces, keep things clean, and stick to house agreements. I play volleyball and enjoy rock climbing. I don’t speak Dutch yet, but I plan to take classes at the university once I arrive. I’ll be in Twente for my full degree, so I’m hoping to find a place where I can stay longer term, settle in, and be a positive part of the house. Feel free to reach out if you think I’d be a good fit

My name is Efe (18) and I am an incoming international student at Eindhoven University of Technology. I will begin my studies in the upcoming academic year and I am currently looking for a comfortable, peaceful, and long-term place to live. As an only child, I had the opportunity to develop myself in many different areas from an early age. I graduated from the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) in Turkey, which helped me become responsible, independent, and open-minded. Growing up with a mother who works as a librarian, I spent much of my childhood surrounded by books, which shaped me into a calm, respectful, and harmonious person. My father is a naval officer holding the rank of Captain, and through him I learned discipline, responsibility, and respect for shared living environments. My curiosity about how things work naturally led me toward engineering — a field that truly excites me. At TU/e, I will be studying Mechanical Engineering, which has been my dream field for many years. I live a calm lifestyle focused on my studies and personal development. In my free time, I enjoy skiing, mountain biking, swimming, and cycling. I also play the drums in a music band, which is one of my biggest passions. In the past, I practiced judo and played basketball as well. Overall, I value a balanced, active, and respectful lifestyle. My studies begin in early September. However, I would prefer to start renting slightly earlier so that I can arrive in the Netherlands in advance and complete important preparations such as furnishing the room, university and municipality registration, and arranging health insurance. My intention is to stay long-term — ideally for 1 to 2 years — and build a stable living environment during my studies, of course fully respecting your rental conditions. During my studies, I will be fully financially supported by my family. Our family’s average monthly income is approximately €5,000, ensuring stable and reliable financial support throughout my stay. I am a responsible, respectful, and tidy person who values a quiet and well-maintained home. I do not smoke, I respect house rules, and I take great care of the places I live in. My goal is to find a safe and peaceful home where I can focus on my education and be a reliable and considerate tenant. Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I would be happy to provide any additional information or documents if needed. Kind regards,

Mijn naam is Robin, 24 jaar, en ik werk in de sport- en fitnessbranche. Sport en gezondheid spelen een grote rol in mijn leven en zorgen voor een gestructureerde en actieve levensstijl. Ik ben rustig, netjes en betrouwbaar, en vind het belangrijk dat een woning schoon is en dat er respectvol met elkaar wordt omgegaan. Ik ben geen feesttype en hecht veel waarde aan een prettige, stabiele woonsfeer. In mijn vrije tijd sport ik veel, luister ik muziek en ben ik bezig met persoonlijke ontwikkeling. Ik rook niet, ga zorgvuldig om met de woning en kom mijn afspraken na. Ik ben op zoek naar een plek voor langere tijd waar ik me echt thuis kan voelen en waar wederzijds respect centraal staat.

Hi, my name is Gabriel Josief. I'm a 19 years old working student male. My budget is € 800 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

Dear landlord, I am writing to express my sincere interest in your property. I am a dedicated Master's student at TU Delft, staying in a Duwo student house and I am currently seeking a new residence in Eindhoven or a close city. My relocation is necessary as I will be undertaking my Master's thesis at IMEC, a world-leading research institute in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, as part of an officially approved academic-industry collaboration. I plan to live alone and am looking for a comfortable home for approximately 12 months, which aligns perfectly with the duration of my project. Although until 1st of September I have no personal income, I want to reassure you that I have a reliable financial guarantor – my stepfather – who is the sole shareholder of a company and has a stable monthly amount of 10.000 EUR income, being fully able to guarantee the rent during my tenancy period. I also hold a valid Dutch residence permit for the entire duration of my stay, and all supporting financial documents, including my father's guarantee statement, can be provided upon request. I am a quiet, responsible, and non-smoking individual, fully committed to my academic and professional work. I have prior experience living in the Netherlands and understand the importance of maintaining a property with care and respect. You can be assured that I will be a considerate tenant who values a peaceful living environment. I do not have any pets. I would be very grateful for the opportunity to discuss my application further. Kind regards, BERKE

I’m a 24-year-old male from Mumbai moving to the Netherlands this August to start my M.Sc. in Management of Technology at TU Delft. I’m looking for a room in The Hague/Rotterdam/Delft (or nearby) starting mid-to-late August 2026. I’m easy-going and pragmatic, with a big emphasis on keeping a tidy and organized home—I’m a firm believer that a clean space makes for a happy house! I’m a big fan of music, love exploring the city’s hidden gems, and I enjoy cooking (always happy to share a meal or a new recipe). I’m social and friendly, but I also value personal space and quiet time for studies. I'm looking for a house where we can have a coffee or a chat in the evening, but where everyone can also do their own thing.

I’ve just landed in Amsterdam and I’m looking for a place to call home, even if only temporarily. I’m 49 years old and work in finance at a large multinational company. I value peace and personal space, but I also enjoy sharing moments to talk, laugh, and connect. I love food and cooking.

Hello, I'm Emilio. I’m 22 years old and will be 23 in May 2026. I was born and raised in Napa, California but have lived in Denver, Colorado for the past 2 years. I have three citizenships, American, Italian and Canadian. I speak English and some Italian, but no Dutch (yet!). I plan on settling into my new home in Amsterdam in June 2026, and will work part-time after getting settled in. I’m willing to rent sooner for the right home to avoid housing chaos. I do have savings and allocate my financial resources responsibly. I enjoy playing video games such as Cities: Skylines, and going to many EDM shows. I’m social but not a big partier. I love travelling and have visited my family in Italy since I was 6 months old. I’m very passionate about non-car centric city planning, which is why I’m going to Amsterdam to study it since I believe they have the best cities in the world. I hope to take that knowledge of the Netherlands and bring it back to the USA to help improve our car-centric cities here. I’m pursuing a Bachelor’s at University of Amsterdam to study Human Geography and Planning, eventually gaining a Masters in a related field. In terms of housing, my preference would be in Amsterdam within a reasonable commute to the Roeterseiland campus, but understand I may need to look further out. I would prefer to live in a private studio, but I’m also open to shared housing. In Denver, I’ve lived with three various other roommates the whole time, and all of us have gotten along very well. I’m very clean and quite quiet, though I do like socializing with my roommates when we’re able to. Having lived with roommates the past 2 years, I’m more than happy to share a space with others and I keep common areas very tidy. I’m excited to meet people from around the world and experience my next chapter.

Hoi! I'm Gokul, 25, currently completing my MSc in Computer Science & Embedded Systems at TU Delft. I'm starting my thesis in October at Schiedam and will be working in Delft over the summer. I've been living in Den Haag, ending July and am currently looking for a place from mid-July until at least June 2027, ideally 12 months so I don't have to move during my thesis. I'm tidy, respectful of shared spaces, and quiet. I enjoy gym, photography, and music. I'm happy to do a video call or visit in person.

Hoi, ik ben Hanne en ik ben 18 jaar en ben op zoek naar een leuke kamer in Groningen. Ik begin vanaf 1 september 2025 aan de studie bewegingswetenschappen aan de Rijksuniversiteit in Groningen, en ik kijk ernaar uit om het studentenleven in Groningen te ontdekken! In mijn vrije tijd sport ik graag, ik zit op hockey en tennis, en ik hou van gezelligheid, samen eten of gewoon een drankje doen met huisgenoten.

En daar sta je dan... met mijn huurster afgesproken dat ik tot November kon blijven in haar appartement, maar binnen de eerste maand belde ze al op dat ze terugkwam van haar vakantie. M.a.w. ik moet nu voor 15 mei een nieuw onderkomen hebben geregeld. Dit is uiteraard niet prettig als je net gescheiden bent en je ex in je huis woont. M.a.w. best wel spoed met mijn zoektocht. Daarnaast heb ik een eigen bedrijf dat momenteel erg goed loopt, dus ook veel werk met zich meebrengt. Wel leuk werk overigens. Alleen door deze onverwachte wending moet ik nu ineens alles neerleggen om dit op te lossen. Ik heb eerder op woningen gepast en zie een tijdelijk appartement dan ook echt als eigendom van de ander en ben daar zeer voorzichtig mee en onderhoud het goed. Mocht je een studio of appartement hebben waar ik tenminste 2 maanden kan wonen, dan hoor ik dat graag.

*REGISTRATION NEEDED* I am originally from Mexico and moved to Amsterdam in 2024 to purse my master degree in environment and resource management at VU. I'm concluding my thesis, and I already got a part-time job as a hotel night receptionist. I have a background in social anthropology. I deeply value and respect others way of living is important. I have lived with housemate and roomates before. So, I know that I am clean, organized and respectfult of shared spaces. I do appreciate a peaceful and friendly environment. Personality wise I am a friendly, soft spoken, shy, calm and sometimes an awkward person. Not so much of a party person. I'm gay, so a queer-friendly environment would be ideal. In my free time I like to read, cook, going for walks, do excercise or house cleaning (not joking, it helps me to relax). I have a speech repetition pattern, I might repeat or ask the same thing a few times without realizing it. Feel free to gently let me know when I am doing it! I wont be offended at all, but please be kind.
