I prefer to share a house. I used to live in share house when I was in overseas countries. That time I was able to save much money compering with living alone and make a lot of friends. some of them became my besties. but I guess whether the share house is nice or not depends on flatmates.

well currently I still live with my parents, and I think that there is an age where you just wanna be independient. I won´t like to live alone, I would like to live in a flat with good friends and have fun after work.
