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.

Hi, I am a professional nurse with 8 years of experience in healthcare. I am coming to Amsterdam for an intensive language program at UvA Talen from September to November. I am a highly responsible, tidy, and organized person who values quiet, clean, and respectful living environments. I am looking for a peaceful room where I can focus on my studies. I do not smoke, I don't have pets, and I am very respectful of shared spaces."

Hello, I am Maria, currently living in Noord-Holland and looking for a place to move into around Amsterdam or Haarlem, as I am working in this area. I am organised, responsible, and employed full-time. I have no pets and I do not smoke. I am searching for accommodation for just me, starting as soon as possible. I like the location of the house; it looks like a quiet area but still close to everything one might need.

Hi, I’m Christian, 22 years old and from Germany. I’ll be starting my master’s degree at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in September and I’m currently looking for a room in or around Amsterdam from August. A room in a shared apartment would be my first choice, but I’m also open to a small studio if it feels like a good fit. I would describe myself as social, relaxed and reliable. I like living in a place where people can easily have a chat, cook together or sometimes do something as flatmates, while still respecting that everyone has their own routine and sometimes just needs a bit of space. For me, a good home has a friendly and easy-going atmosphere where things feel natural rather than forced. In my free time, I do a lot of sports, enjoy meeting friends, trying out new things and exploring new places. At the same time, I also take my studies, work and personal projects seriously, so I really appreciate a home that feels comfortable and respectful. I’m tidy and responsible with shared spaces and I care about keeping the apartment nice for everyone in the long run. I’d be happy to tell you more about myself by texting or video call. :)

Hi, my name is Simone. I'm a 17 years old student female. My budget is € 6000 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

Hello! My name is Leonardo. I'm an Erasmus student from Italy and I’ll be staying in Enschede from August until the end of January. I’m easy‑going, clean and respectful. I’m generally a quiet person, but I also enjoy chatting and spending time with others. I like to cook and watch TV series, but I also enjoy a lot going to the pub to drink something or having a night in playing games or just chatting.

I am a 19 years old future student of psychology in Tilburg university. I came in the Netherlands in December 2022 from Bulgaria to work in order to fund my education. I consider myself as an organised, clean and responsible person. Currently I am working full-time as a warehouse employee and I will continue working part-time when I become a student. For the time I have been here I have lived in many different accommodations with international people, so I don‘t have a problem sharing communal areas and respecting others privacy. My biggest passion is learning about the human mind, helping people regarding their mental health and developing myself as a better person. In my free time I love reading novels, self-help books, listening to music, being in the nature and watching anime.

Ik ben Myrthe (22) en in september 2026 start ik met de opleiding Forensisch Onderzoek aan het Saxion. Ik ben rustig en avontuurlijk tegelijk en sta spontaan in het leven. De afgelopen jaren heb ik als skilerares gewerkt in Oostenrijk, ben ik daar een zomer lifeguard geweest en heb ik als stewardess gevlogen. In mijn vrije tijd speel ik tennis en ben ik regelmatig met vrienden te vinden voor een drankje of gezelligheid. Ook denk ik erover na om me aan te sluiten bij een studentenvereniging en tennisvereniging. Daarnaast heb ik een Australische herder van 1,5 jaar, Monty, die ik graag meeneem, dus mijn voorkeur gaat uit naar een woning waar huisdieren welkom zijn of dit in overleg mogelijk is. Wat ik zoek is een schoon en opgeruimd huis waar het gezellig is, maar ook rust heerst.

I recently graduated from UWC Maastricht, an international boarding school where I lived in a student residence for two years sharing a floor with around 25 students, so I’m very comfortable with co-living and shared spaces.
