I am a 35-year-old single Japanese male living in Hilversum, sharing a flat. Currently, I work as a freelance AI trainer, and I plan to start a new educational business in NL in the near future. I am very friendly, always keep promises, clean a flat, and do not cause any trouble for other residents or flatmates. From 2021 to 2023, I lived in London, renting from the same landlord without any issues, including paying rent on time. I am currently looking for a shared flat in Den Haag, Rotterdam, Delft, Leiden, Amsterdam, or anywhere near these cities. I am sorry I can't speak Dutch for now, but I am trying to study Dutch every single day. Hope I can see you soon!!

I’m Dimitri, a 21-year-old Master’s student in Computer Science from France, and I’m moving to UT for an exchange semester from August 2026 to 30 January 2027. I’m a non-smoker, easy-going (I’d hope so, at least!). I’m a relatively calm person, but I’m definitely down to share dinners and hang out. I really enjoy board games and video games. I’m still a beginner cook, but I like eating and I’m very proficient at cleaning and helping out. I speak English, basic German, and I enjoy practicing languages.

(English version below!) Hallo! Mijn naam is Mika en ik ben een student uit Duitsland die vanaf het komende herfstsemester de bacheloropleiding Civiele Techniek aan de Universiteit Twente in Enschede zal beginnen. Ik word financieel ondersteund door zowel mijn eigen spaargeld als door mijn ouders, die ook bereid zijn garant te staan voor eventuele huurcontracten. Ik ben erg dankbaar dat ik op hun steun kan rekenen. Een beetje over mij als persoon: mijn hobby’s zijn zwemmen, bordspellen, programmeren en videogames. Daarnaast speel ik graag een potje sudoku of schaak wanneer ik daar de tijd voor heb. Ik heb voor Nederland gekozen vanwege de wereldwijd erkende expertise op het gebied van civiele techniek. De Universiteit Twente sprak mij in het bijzonder aan vanwege de unieke campusomgeving en de zeer internationale studentenpopulatie. Ik zou mezelf omschrijven als een zeer verantwoordelijke en georganiseerde persoon. Ik vind het belangrijk om gedeelde ruimtes netjes te houden, mijn eigen rommel op te ruimen en ervoor te zorgen dat huishoudelijke taken op tijd worden gedaan. Ik geloof dat rekening houden met elkaar en betrouwbaar zijn belangrijke eigenschappen zijn bij het samenwonen. Momenteel ben ik Nederlands aan het leren, hoewel ik nog niet op een niveau ben waarop ik vloeiend gesprekken kan voeren. Toch ben ik optimistisch dat ik de taal relatief snel onder de knie zal krijgen, mede doordat Duits mijn moedertaal is en de talen veel overeenkomsten hebben. Ik zou het erg waarderen als jullie mij zouden willen overwegen als toekomstige huisgenoot. Ik kijk ernaar uit om jullie mogelijk te ontmoeten en deel uit te maken van een gezellig huishouden! Met vriendelijke groet, Mika --- Hello! My name is Mika, and I am a student from Germany who will be starting my Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering at the University of Twente in Enschede this coming fall semester. I am financially supported through both my personal savings and my parents, who are also willing to act as guarantors for any rental agreements. I am very grateful to have their support. A little bit about me as a person: My hobbies include swimming, board games, programming, and video games. I also enjoy a good game of Sudoku or chess whenever I have the time. I chose the Netherlands because of its world-renowned expertise in the field of civil engineering, and I was especially drawn to the University of Twente because of its unique campus environment and highly international student community. I would describe myself as a very responsible and organized person. I take pride in keeping shared spaces clean, cleaning up after myself, and making sure household tasks are completed on time. I believe that being considerate and reliable is an important part of living together. I am currently learning Dutch, although I am not yet at a conversational level. However, since German is my native language, I am optimistic that I will be able to pick it up relatively quickly with some practice and immersion. I would be very happy if you would consider me as a potential future roommate. I look forward to the possibility of meeting you and becoming part of a friendly household! Kind regards, Mika

I’m Ryota from Japan. I’m 30 years old. I live in the Netherlands with a Working Holiday Visa. I used to work as a mechanical engineer and in sales in Japan. I used to live in England, where I worked as an assistant to a sushi chef. I love breakdance and have been doing it for over 10 years.

Hi! My name is Àlvar, I'm 26 years old and I'm from Barcelona, Spain. This September I'll be moving to Groningen to start the MSc in Molecular Medicine and Innovative Treatment at the University of Groningen. Before this, I completed a Bachelor's degree in Biotechnology and a Master's degree in Molecular Biotechnology. I also worked as a research assistant at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), where I participated in drug discovery research for retinal degenerative diseases. Besides my research experience, I have also worked in Regulatory Affairs, which has helped me become organised, responsible and used to working in professional environments. I'm looking for a place where everyone feels comfortable, respects each other's space and enjoys a friendly atmosphere. I'm a tidy, quiet and considerate person. I don't smoke, I don't have pets and I'm not someone who throws parties at home, although I do enjoy having dinner, watching a movie or sharing a drink with housemates from time to time. Outside university I enjoy going to the gym, hiking, cycling and discovering new places. I'm also looking forward to meeting people from different countries and making Groningen feel like home over the next few years. Ideally, I'm looking for a long-term room, as I plan to complete my Master's degree and hopefully continue my career in the Netherlands afterwards. If you think I'd be a good fit for your house, I'd be happy to introduce myself further or arrange an online meeting. As I'm currently living in Spain, I'm happy to arrange a video call to introduce myself and answer any questions you may have. Thank you! Àlvar

Lovely Room

I'm Maria, a 24-year-old Italian biomedical engineer starting a PhD at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in September 2026, as part of the SmartNudges project in collaboration with Philips and Catharina Ziekenhuis. My research focuses on cardiac signal processing and machine learning — so expect a focused, desk-working housemate! I'm tidy, respectful of shared spaces, and used to living in student residences. I don't smoke, I keep regular hours, and I genuinely care about creating a comfortable living environment for everyone. In my free time I play tennis and enjoy cooking. I'm looking for a place I can call home for the full duration of my PhD (ideally 4 years), so I'm a stable, long-term tenant. I have a university employment contract starting September 1st and can provide all necessary documentation upon request. I'd love to find somewhere I can settle in, focus on my research, and be a good neighbour.

Hi I’m Eden! I’m an 25-year-old VU master student, studying Computer Science. I keep my living spaces clean and organised, barely party and noisy at night. I like to play tennis, yoga and live plants. I generally reply within 6 hours daytime and nightime.

Hi, my name is Shane. I'm a 18 years old student male. My budget is € 6000 p/mnd and I would like to move immediately

Hi! I'm Roni and I'm looking for a flat/room. A bit about me: I'm from Barcelona and currently I work at the VU as a lecturer. I work from the office always, and weekends I can be out and about quite a bit. So even if I am probably not going to be around much, I still want to find a place that feels like a home and where people take care of the shared space. I have lived in many different shared houses already, I'm used to it and I'm fairly easy to get along with and adaptable. I am a very clean person (I have a passion for ironing) and also not a great cook (so I won't be taking up many hours the kitchen). I'm into hobbies ranging from french film to house parties. I will talk to my family quite a bit on the phone, but I have learnt to tone down the Spanish volume to acceptable standards. Also, not a smoker! I don't really have social media but you can check me online (you need a website when you work in uni) to make sure I am not a fake. Let me know if there is anything else you might want to know!

I'm a non-smoker with no pets, and I'm excited to meet new people, learn Dutch, and make the most of my time in the Netherlands.
