We are Bálint (26) and Zóra (25), a peaceful worker-student couple. Bálint has recently finished his studies in Film & TV at the University of Stavanger, Norway and will now work and explore further career opportunities. In September, Zóra will begin her studies in Transformation Design at Willem de Kooning Academy (WdKA) in Rotterdam. We are looking for a bigger room / studio / apartment where we can live together. Our main preferences are having a living space (bedroom) spacious enough for two people, and a location with good connection to Zóra’s academy in central Rotterdam. In addition, registration should be possible for both of us. With regards to a budget, we are looking for accommodation around 1000 € / month, and our parents are prepared to be our guarantors. We are aware of the housing market’s limits and are flexible and open to any solutions. A little bit more about ourselves; we are a peaceful couple of 3 years, who enjoy a relaxed living environment. In our spare time we enjoy cooking together, watching series, listening to music and attending cultural events. We enjoy getting to know and meeting other people and are absolutely open to live in shared housing. Tidiness is important for the both of us and having lived in shared housing before, we both understand how to share common spaces respectfully with others.

Sociale, rustige jongen zoekt een kamer of studiootje in Utrecht/ Zeist/ Amersfoort/ Nieuwegein. Houd van sporten en gezellig iets leuks doen met vrienden.

Mijn naam is Emma-Jane. Ik ben 27 jaar en werk als onderzoeker bij het Erasmus MC. Vanwege omstandigheden moest ik mijn eerdere woonruimte verlaten. Nu ben ik op zoek naar een fijne woning voor mijzelf. Omdat ik de laatste fase van mijn onderzoek inga, is stabiliteit en een vaste woonplek voor mij erg belangrijk. Ik kom oorspronkelijk uit Zuid-Afrika. Na mijn studie in Duitsland ben ik naar Nederland gekomen voor mijn PhD-onderzoek. Ik begrijp Nederlands goed en kan het ook goed schrijven. Zelf spreken vind ik nog wat lastiger, maar ik ben het actief aan het leren. Daarnaast ben ik al geruime tijd in een stabiele en toegewijde relatie. Toch woon ik graag zelfstandig, omdat ik merk dat dit het beste werkt voor mijn onderzoek en werkzaamheden. Een rustige eigen woonruimte helpt mij om mij volledig op mijn werk te kunnen concentreren. In mijn vrije tijd breng ik graag tijd door met vrienden en ben ik graag in de natuur. Vooral een lange fietstocht langs een meer of de zee vind ik heerlijk. Holland heeft inmiddels echt mijn hart gestolen. Ik voel mij hier thuis en zou mij hier graag voor de lange termijn willen vestigen. Ik zie mezelf hier voor langere tijd wonen, me vestigen en een gezin stichten. Daarom ben ik op zoek naar een woning waar ik met plezier en voor langere tijd kan wonen. Met vriendelijke groet, Emma-Jane

My name is Michelle, I'm 23, and I'm from Italy. At the end of August, I'll be moving to Amsterdam to start my Master's in International Trade and Investment Law at the University of Amsterdam (UvA), also planning to work part-time alongside my studies. I'm a very outgoing and sociable person who loves meeting new people and having long chats over a good cup of coffee. Travelling is one of my biggest passions, and I've already lived abroad for more than a year in Norway, so I'm very comfortable sharing a home with others, adapting to new environments, and using English in my daily life. I'm also a very creative person who loves cooking, and I always enjoy bringing people together around a homemade Italian meal! As a housemate, I'm clean, tidy, respectful of shared spaces, and mindful of everyone's privacy and routines. I'm looking for a place to start this new exciting chapter in Amsterdam and I'd love to live with friendly and open-minded people and contribute to a positive atmosphere in the house :)

Hey, my name is Matylda, I am currently finishing my first year of Economics and Business Economics at UU. For the past year I've been living in a student accomodation, and now I am looking for a new place for the next year in Utrecht. I am a responsible tenant, I'm easy-going when it comes to living with others and sharing space, but I also really appreciate my time alone. In my free time I love running and reading books!

Hoi, ik ben Gijs, ik woon in Amstelveen en ben net klaar met het VWO, volgend jaar wil ik in Delft gaan studeren. Ik hou van hockeyen, surfen, leuke dingen doen en ik ben een sociale en gezellige jongen.

My name is Mariam. I work in IT industry. I am a reliable, responsible, and calm person. I do not have pets and lead a quiet lifestyle. In my free time, I enjoy spending time in nature and reading books.

Dear landlord / letting agency, My name is Inhye Lee, and I am writing because I am very interested in this apartment. Starting this September, I will be moving to Groningen to study interRelational Art Practice at the Frank Mohr Institute, the master's program of Minerva Art Academy. I am a 35-year-old woman, and I am currently based mainly in Seoul, South Korea. [Financial situation] As I am applying as a student, I imagine you may be wondering how I will cover my living costs, so I would like to address this directly. During my two years of study, I will be supported financially by my family. I want to make clear that paying rent will not be a financial difficulty for me. As a Korean national, my family members residing in Korea are also able to act as financial guarantors. [Living habits and housing experience] Above all, I value cleanliness and a quiet environment. I lived in a boarding school from my high school years, and afterward, during university and my working life, I lived in various one-room apartments and other types of housing around Seoul. Throughout this time — whether living with others or living alone — I came to understand how important it is to maintain a clean living space, and I have always taken care to keep the spaces I live in clean and treated with respect. My hobby is taking walks, reading books and as I have a quiet personality, I do not make noise at home or engage in behavior that could disturb my neighbors. [Why I would like to live here] While searching through many different listings, I came across this place, which is fully equipped with everything I need. It is also conveniently close to my school, which made me feel that this is truly the perfect place for me. The rental period also matches my needs exactly, so if possible, I would love to begin this new chapter of my life here. If given the opportunity to live here, I would take great care of the space, treating it as my own home. Thank you for considering my application. I would be happy to provide any additional documents or information you may need. I sincerely hope to have the opportunity to live here. I am currently based in Seoul. However, I do have a local friend in Groningen. If a viewing is possible, I would like to ask whether my friend could view the apartment on my behalf. Thank you. Warm regards, Inhye

Hello, my name is Yavor. I'm 26 and I'm studying ICT in Eindhoven (3rd year). I'm looking for a room / studio for long-term renting (2+ years). After I'm finished with my study, I'm planning on staying in the Netherlands and developing a career. I have a part-time job and receive DUO for my finances. My brother also lives in the Netherlands and can help me if needed (haven't needed to yet 🙂) Ik versta Nederlands best goed, maar ik heb nog wel wat moeite als ik moet praten😅. Maar ik ben aan de slag om vloeiend te worden 💪. I don't smoke, don't throw parties, and I like to keep things clean and well maintained. In my free time I like to go to the gym, cook and do home improvement / DIY (fixing broken, old things, making things look nice and modern 🏡)
