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.

Hoi, Mijn naam is Alisha☺️ Iets over mij: Momenteel woon ik nog thuis met mijn ouders en 2 zussen in zuilen.Iedereen is volwassen dus we merken wel echt dat de ruimtes die we hebben te klein worden😅 Ik ben 20 jaar ben net klaar met mijn opleiding en werk fulltime in de kinderopvang. 4 dagen ben ik op mijn werk en ik spreek ook best wel veel af met mijn vriendinnen. Ook vindt ik het heerlijk om gewoon thuis te blijven en niks te doen🤣🙃 Ik kan koken en schoonmaken. Ik ben niet van het stappen of feesten wel van spelletjes spelen en gewoon een gezellige avond creëren😁 Ik zou graag nog wel de studie pedagogiek willen beginnen binnekort, maar ik zoek liever eerst mijn eigen plekje waardoor ik mij daarna kan focussen op mijn studie! Liefs, Alisha☺️

Hallo, mijn naam is Max, 19 jaar en ik ga Aeronautical Engineering studeren in Delft. Ik ben een rustige, verantwoordelijke en nette student en ik rook niet. Ik ben op zoek naar een kamer voor de lange termijn en ben van plan om voor de duur van mijn studie te blijven. Ik betaal altijd op tijd en ga zorgvuldig om met de woning. Ik hoor graag van u!

Hallo, Mijn naam is Norah. Ik ben 18 jaar en start in september met de opleiding Criminologie. Ik woon nu nog in Apeldoorn, maar hoop snel een eigen plek te vinden in Leiden. Ik ben rustig, maar houd wel van gezelligheid. Als jullie iemand zoeken die graag af en toe samen eet, koffie drinkt, een spelletje doet of een glaasje wijn drinkt, dan pas ik er goed bij. Verder vind ik het ook fijn om samen te studeren of om even mijn eigen ding te doen. Groeten, Norah

Hi! I’m Kimi, from Switzerland and Italian is my native language. I also speak French, German, English and Spanish. I'm a marketing specialist. I understand just a little bit of Dutch, but I'm always happy to learn more 😊 I’ve spent the last years travelling solo as a backpacker across most of Asia, Australia, Oceania, South America and Europe. I’ve just returned from Australia and I’m now planning to come back to the Netherlands, where I already worked last year in Bloemendaal and had a really great experience. I love nature and animals, although I can’t have pets at the moment because of my lifestyle. I’m clean, respectful and easy to live with, and I enjoy both my own space and occasional social moments with housemates. Looking forward to meeting you!

My girlfriend, Libby, and I have been living together in Utrecht for the past 1.5 years. Our current rental contract will be running out at the end of July so we are looking for something new. She is working as a journalist in Arnhem, I am about to finish my Computer Science Master's degree at at the VU Amsterdam this summer. Libby is from London and did her Master's here in Utrecht. During her Master's she works as a tour guide, now she has been working as a business to business journalist for the past 1.5 years. During my Bachelor's I worked as a Ski instructor in my home town, Garmisch-Partenkirchen. I am currently working with a small German web development company part time and will continue to do so till at least the end of my Master's.

Hi! My name is Andrea, I'm 30, Italian, and I'm moving to Amsterdam in July/August to start a Master's in Global Cross-Media Cultures at UvA this September. I work as a ghostwriter — commissioned biographies, mostly — which means I work from home, keep my own hours, and am generally a quiet presence around the house. No wild schedules, no noise, no mess. I spent years in publishing and film production before going independent, so I tend to be pretty organized and self-sufficient. I'm leaving Italy to get back into academia, pick up a side job, and be closer to my girlfriend who's already in the Netherlands. As a flatmate, I'm calm, tidy, and genuinely respectful of shared spaces — the kind of person who cleans up after himself and doesn't need to be asked twice. I'd love to learn more about the room and the flat dynamic. Feel free to reach out anytime! Looking forward to hearing from you, Andrea

Heyy, ik ben Noortje en ben op zoek naar een kamer in Breda.

Hey, my name is Manon, a 20-year-old Art History student from Belgium (so I speak fluently Dutch). Starting 1 August 2026 I will be coming to Amsterdam for a six-month Erasmus exchange to study at the UvA. I am looking for a cosy and nice place to live and study in Amsterdam. In my daily life I am social and love discovering the city’s “hidden gems” or enjoying a sunny outdoor café, but i also value a cosy evening at home. In my free time I enjoy sewing (so a loose button is quickly fixed!). In addition I also love cooking (I can whip up a bowl of Japanese ramen in no time) and I don’t snore - always a plus ;) Hope to hear from you soon

Hi, my name is Pim. I'm a 24 years old working male. My budget is € 900 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

Hello! I'm Mélissa, an engineering student looking for a place to stay from July/August onwards during my master in Mechanical Engineering at TU Delft. I am a friendly, relaxed and clean person coming from Belgium :) I enjoy chatting over dinner/coffee and making meaningful connections but also value other's boundaries and personal space. I like to stay active and do almost all kind of sports (badminton and gym are currently my favorite). Coming from Chinese origins, sharing food is one of my main love languages.

Hi, I’m Emily! I’m a 33-year-old American, who has been living in Prague, Czech Republic for the past two years, and come July, I will be moving to Amsterdam for work. I received a postdoc position at the Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica, where I will be analyzing mummies (and other ancient human remains) using X-ray imaging. Outside of work, I love being active and outdoors. I consider myself a sporty person, e.g. swimming, hiking, climbing, tennis, biking. My less active hobbies include poker, billiards, sauna, and museum visits. In regards to past living experiences, I have been a tenant for over 15 years and have always maintained friendly relations with my landlords and neighbors. I consider myself a responsible and clean person (I know everyone says this, but it is very true in my case!). Additionally, I value a peaceful and quiet home environment. I have no pets, don't smoke, and will be living alone.

Hi, my name is Stefano, I am 22 years old and I am from Italy. I am looking for a room/studio in or around Delft, as I will start my MSc in Systems and Control at TU Delft this September but I am also available to start renting earlier if needed. Ideally, I am looking for a place until 2028, but any shorter period will do. I am a very clean, polite, and respectful person, and I really appreciate a quiet environment where I can study. I already have experience living abroad, since I did an Erasmus period in Elche, Spain, where I shared accommodation with other students.

Hi, my name is Polina. I'm a 27 years old working female. My budget is € 1000 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

My name is Victor and I will be starting my studies in Data Science at the Eindhoven University of Technology in September 2026. I am financially supported by both of my parents, who will cover the rent and living expenses, and they are also available to act as guarantors. I do not smoke, dont have pets, and intend to register at the address I occupy if possible. I am open to both short term, and long term living conditions, as I am very aware that such is the reality of student life. I would appreciate the opportunity to view any apartment on April 30th or May 3rd. Please let me know if any additional information is needed.
