Hello guys, I prefer to live alone in a house though sometimes I feel sad but I still want to have my own privacy so I can do whatever I want.

Tobe totaly honest, if having enough finance, I prefer living alone because I want my own privacy. However, it's also very great to live with interested people. I am really a person who want my cake and eat it too.

Although I am an introvert person, I'd rather live with my housemate because I think we can take care of each other also we can easily arrange our time to do housework, cooking, sometime we may help each other.

In my opinion is sharing a hause interessant as long as a ensuite bathroom is existing. One can get to know new people and makes friends.

It is hard to say. I like to share the house with lovely, interesting and funny people . It is a way to learn and exchange life experience, but same time I like to be on my own in the house.
