Hello! I'm a long-time self-employed multidisciplinary creative professional (photographer/creative director/media background) pursuing fluency in Dutch, relocating late January via a DAFT Visa. I already have a BSN, a network of Dutch friends and a sense of community, having spent extended stays in the NL twice in two years. This time, my move is permanent. I have never felt more at home than I do with my feet in the ground in the Netherlands. I have excellent references, rental history, and would be delighted to be the dream tenant you hope for, far beyond just the standard financial responsibility. I care for my space, have a green thumb, and love people, adore animals, art, golf, opera, and even the raindrops most complain about - there's serenity in gray days, too! I am open to anyplace accessible to public transportation (I have sold my car for the time being) in communities in the north, like Alkmaar, Zaandam, Edam and Haarlem, to areas I'm also familiar with, such as Hilversum, Bussum, Huizen, Laren, Blaricum, Utrecht, Eindhoven, Amersfoort and even Venlo - though this would be quite the commute to the Randstad! I would love my independence and a studio or apartment, but I also understand the housing shortage is real, so I'd be open to discussing sharing in a bright, comfortable place with someone kind and grateful to be alive. :) Huge bonus if you have a dog! ;) Please reach out if you feel I could be a good fit for you. Thank you!

Hi, my name is Cris. I'm a 20 years old student male. My budget is € 6000 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

Hallo! Wij zijn een rustig en verantwoordelijk stel: twee fulltime studenten die beiden 38 uur per week werken. Ik zit in mijn tweede studiejaar en mijn vriendin Ruslana in haar vierde jaar (graduation internship). Wij hebben allebei een stabiel maandelijks inkomen van ongeveer €2000. Door Ruslana’s afstudeerstage zijn wij op zoek naar een appartement of studio in of rondom Rotterdam. Wij leven eenvoudig: onze grootste uitgaven zijn boodschappen en brandstof. We hebben twee auto’s en gebruiken die vooral voor werk en studie. Hygiëne is voor ons heel belangrijk. Ruslana heeft een stofallergie, waardoor wij de woning elke 2–3 dagen schoonmaken. Onze huidige woning is in perfecte staat, en we zorgen altijd netjes voor onze leefruimte. We hebben geen huisdieren, niet het type dat feest, en alcoholgebruik is minimaal. Wij hechten veel waarde aan een rustige leefomgeving. We respecteren altijd de privacy, rust en regels van buren en verhuurders. Wij zijn heel makkelijk in omgang en houden van een nette, vreedzame atmosfeer in het gebouw. Daarnaast sparen wij actief voor onze toekomstige bruiloft en een eigen business-startup, dus wij gaan verstandig met geld om. Indien nodig kunnen onze ouders optreden als garant. Wij zoeken een betaalbare, nette en rustige plek waar we kunnen slapen, eten en herstellen van onze drukke dagen. We willen graag voor minimaal 8 maanden huren, en blijven met plezier langer als de samenwerking goed loopt. Alvast bedankt voor uw tijd! Wij horen graag van u. ENGLISH Hello! We are a calm and responsible couple, both full-time students who also work 38 hours per week. I am currently in my second year of studies, and my girlfriend Ruslana is in her fourth year doing her graduation internship. Each of us has a stable monthly income of around €2000. Due to Ruslana’s graduation internship, we are searching for an apartment or studio in or around Rotterdam. We live simply: our main expenses are groceries and fuel. We own two cars and mainly use them for commuting to work and university. Cleanliness is very important to us. Ruslana has a dust allergy, so we clean our home every 2–3 days. Our current apartment is in perfect condition, and we always take good care of any space we live in. We have no pets, do not party, and drink only occasionally. We highly value a peaceful living environment. We always respect our neighbours’ privacy, quiet hours, and house rules. We are easy to communicate with and appreciate a clean, friendly, and respectful atmosphere in the building. We are also saving for our future wedding and a business startup, so we manage our finances carefully. If needed, our parents can act as guarantors for rent or any financial matters. We are looking for an affordable, clean, and cozy place where we can rest, cook, and recharge after long days. We plan to rent for at least 8 months and would be happy to stay longer if the cooperation with the landlord goes well. Thank you for your time! We look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Richards & Ruslana

Hi! My name is Alessandro, I’m 22 years old, originally from Italy, and I’m looking for a room in Utrecht as I’ll be moving there soon for work. I’m a tidy, calm and sociable person. I enjoy sharing a dinner or a chat with housemates, but I also really respect personal space and privacy. I’m responsible with rent and I always keep shared areas clean. I’ve been living on my own for the past three years, so I’m used to managing a house independently and taking care of everything responsibly.

I am a 22 year old, first year master's student at Leiden University. I am from the US and grew up in Chicago. I am excited to move to Leiden to further my studies! I am clean and respectful, and can be trusted to make all payments on time. In my free time I enjoy nature, yoga, concerts, and also learning Dutch!

Hi! I’m Nivin, interested in the room/place :) Hey there! 👋🏼 I’m Nivin, 23, originally from India but I’ve lived in 5 cities across Europe over the past couple of years thanks to a wild master’s program that took me through Belgium, Germany, Portugal, and Ireland. I’ve got stories from all of them if you’re ever up for a chat! I’m moving to the Netherlands soon under the highly skilled migrant visa category and will be job hunting here (I’ll need to register in the city too). I’m looking for a cozy, clean place nearby, and I’d love to know more about the furnishings and especially if there’s a washing machine. More about me: I love football (both watching and playing), going to the gym, traveling, eating good food, and running when I’m feeling motivated. My girlfriend’s Greek, so I visit her often and usually bring back a few Greek treats. I’m super clean, friendly and chatty when there’s a vibe, but also very respectful of personal space. My family’s in the US, so I also travel there once in a while. Let me know if the room or place is still available and if a viewing is possible. Thanks :) – Nivin

I’m Vendelín, I come from the town of Olomouc in the Czech Republic. I've been studying Molecular Life Sciences in Utrecht for a year now. I am a big plant biology and generally natural science fan, and so I enjoy my studies quite a bit. For that reason I would definitely like to stay studying in Utrecht, and therefore I am looking for a place to stay for at least a part of my studies I have some experience with living alone and with others in new places since I've lived alone for the past year and in general travelled a bunch. Furthermore, I was an exchange student in the USA and lived with two host parents and another Danish exchange student in Ohio for 10 months. I like to read, run, and play tennis. I am self-sufficient and tidy, I don't smoke or take any drugs. I enjoy meeting people, so it is definitely nice if there are more people around.

Hallo, ik ben opzoek naar een kamer met parkeerplek en inschrijving. Ik vind het niet erg om oms de beurt de gezamenlijke ruimte opteruimen. Ik hou niet van feestjes thuis. Mijn hobbies zijn wandelen, volleyballen en paardrijden. In de toekomst zal ik ook met me poes willen kunnen wonen.

Working full-time as a bartender and also very busy building my own business. I’m a very tidy person and I consider honesty/integrity, reliability, and responsibility to be extremely important values. Lastly, I try to spend the free time I have on the tennis court.
