Hi! My name is Olivia, and I will be moving from California to the Netherlands in August 2026 to begin the Master's programme in Physics and Astronomy at the Universiteit van Amsterdam, specializing in GRAPPA (Gravitation Astroparticle Physics Amsterdam). I am 26 years old and recently completed my degree in Astrophysics at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). In addition to my studies, I run a private mathematics and science tutoring business, which I will continue remotely on a reduced schedule while completing my master's degree. I have lived independently since 2018 and have rented my current apartment since 2019. I am a quiet, responsible, and respectful tenant who takes pride in keeping my living space clean and well maintained. Outside of academics, I enjoy cooking, reading, spending time outdoors, and exploring new places. I am excited not only to study in Amsterdam, but also to become part of a new community and experience life in the Netherlands. I will be living alone and will not be bringing any pets with me. I am looking for a comfortable place to call home during my two years in Amsterdam, ideally with a reasonable commute to Science Park. I am open to a variety of housing arrangements, including independent studios, apartments, and shared housing with considerate housemates. I look forward to meeting new people and finding a place where I can settle in and make the most of this exciting opportunity.

I am a mechanical engineer relocating to the Netherlands for a Master’s in engineering, with a strong focus on developing my technical and professional skills in design and energy-related fields. I already have experience in mechanical design and engineering projects, and I’m used to working in structured, demanding environments. I’m also a former professional basketball player. Sports have shaped my discipline, mentality, and daily routine, and I still train consistently. I live an active and structured lifestyle and I value cleanliness, respect, and a calm home environment. I’m easy-going but focused, responsible with shared spaces, and I’m looking for a place where people respect each other’s space while living in a friendly atmosphere during my studies

Mijn naam is Ewout. Ik ben een man van 24 jaar en met spoed op zoek naar een kamer! Mijn hobby's zijn gamen en fitnessen. Ik ben makkelijk in de omgang en sociaal ingesteld. Verder hou ik van een praatje maken en van veel lachen, want lachen is nou eenmaal gezond😀

Hi there! I'm Ozan and I am a 22-year-old Electrical Engineering student from ODTÜ (Middle East Technical University) / Turkey and I am moving to Eindhoven for a short-term summer internship. I am looking for a furnished room from July 1st until the 15th of September. What I do & What I like: I will be working full-time on an engineering project focusing on electrical machine control, optimization and simulations during the week with G. Hande Bayazıt in TU/Eindhoven. Because of my busy schedule, I am looking for a clean, and organized place where I can relax and socialize after work. I am a very easygoing, social, tidy, responsible, and non-smoking person who respects shared spaces. In my free time, I usually play guitar/bass or compose some music of my own, play or watch basketball and hike. In my home university, I compose music for theatre plays with a band of mine and we perform it live as the performers act. I like socializing and I'm eager to make new friends, always! What I am searching for: I am looking for a possibly furnished room with clean housemates. My budget is flexible for the right place. I have my official internship acceptance letter ready to share to verify my stay. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi everyone! My name is Marc, I’m a 21-year-old student from Barcelona, and I’m moving to Enschede to start my MSc in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Twente, specializing in Medical Device Design. I would describe myself as an active, tidy, and easy-going person. I’m a huge sports enthusiast, I’m a long-distance runner, so you’ll often see me heading out for a run to explore the local trails. I’m also a big football fan, both watching and playing, and I’m always up for a match or a chat about the game. When I’m not studying or practicing sport, I love traveling and discovering new cultures. I really value a clean and organized living space, but I also enjoy the social side of house-sharing, whether it’s sharing a meal, a beer, or just hanging out after a long day at the university. I’m looking for a friendly place to call home while I focus on my Master's. If you think I’d be a good fit for your house, I’d love to hear from you! Best regards, Marc

English version above – Nederlandse versie hieronder. Hi, my name is Paul and I'm moving to the Netherlands to pursue my Master's in Design for Interaction at TU Delft – a dream I've been working towards for a long time. I'm originally from Germany, studied and worked in Design in Weimar, and I'm someone who genuinely loves shared living. I've lived in shared apartments for 5 years, so I know what makes it work: mutual respect, clear boundaries, being there for each other, and keeping shared spaces clean and comfortable. Living together well is something I take seriously – and enjoy. Outside of studies I love cycling, hiking, sitting in cafés, and exploring new places. I'm looking forward to building a real home, not just a temporary stay. What I bring along: a great vinyl/CD collection, useful household appliances, and furniture for shared spaces if needed. Financially I'm well set up: I have savings and will be working part-time alongside my studies, so rent is covered reliably and on time. I'd love to meet you and hopefully become part of your home. Paul Hoi, mijn naam is Paul en ik kom binnenkort naar Nederland om mijn Master Design for Interaction te studeren aan de TU Delft – al lange tijd mijn grote droom. Ik kom uit Duitsland, heb Design gestudeerd en gewerkt in Weimar, en ik ben iemand die echt houdt van samenwonen. Ik woon al 8 jaar in WG's, dus ik weet wat belangrijk is: respect voor elkaar, duidelijke grenzen, er zijn voor elkaar en de gedeelde ruimtes netjes houden. Goed samenwonen is iets wat ik serieus neem – en ook gewoon leuk vind. Buiten mijn studie hou ik van fietsen, wandelen, in cafés zitten en nieuwe plekken ontdekken. Ik leer ook Nederlands, dus ik hoop snel een beetje mee te kunnen praten! Wat ik meeneem: een mooie cd-collectie, handige huishoudelijke apparaten en eventueel meubels voor de gemeenschappelijke ruimtes. Financieel sta ik er goed voor: ik heb spaargeld en ga naast mijn studie parttime werken, dus de huur wordt altijd op tijd betaald. Ik zou jullie graag leren kennen – en wie weet worden we binnenkort huisgenoten. Paul
