I played football for my sixth-form school and I am hoping to join a university team. I'm a morning person and I get up early to train and go to the gym. So I would prefer to share with other people who don't like late nights either! Also I am vegetarian and, if possible, I would prefer to share a kitchen with other non-meat eaters.
Tips
- If the form is on paper, write clearly. Use capital letters if your handwriting isn't clear.
- If there is not much space to write, make a list instead of writing full sentences.
- Check it. It's easy to make small mistakes!

I am an ambitious , so I would like to share the accommodation with positive mentality , I prefer to stay with someone who cares about his future plans, so she strive to achieve his dreams , and so like that
I am extroverted person but I do not prefer to share a room with someone. In the other hand I also want to experience with sharing room LOL. Anyways if I have to share room I would like to share with friendly person who I can get close easily plus kind of person who respect others privacies and respect boundaries.
I would like to live flat share off campus at university, so I meat eating fish , chicken I would prefer to live with , non- eating vegetarian flatmates.

I'd prefer to share a room with people who are quiet, aren't nosey, neat and tidy. I'd prefer to have a separate bathroom although this may not possible for budget friendly accomodation. If I were to share a room, I would love to share with people from different countries, this could be an advantage for me to know more about other culture, customs and language. It would be awesome
I prefer to share accommodation with quiet people, no smokers or alcoholics, people who respect my space and personal things. I love to sleep for that reason and prefer roommates who don't regularly come home late.
I would like to share a flat two or three people who live from different countries when I live in abroad. So we can share our nature and get experiences from them. I am a quiet person so I don't like too noisy people, I don't mind stay up late or watching TV. And I think we need to clean our flat equally and respect to each other.
If I am in a foreign country for the purpose of learning their language, I prefer to share acommodation with one to two people because communication can help me a lot to improve my language skills, espacially listening and speaking. However, to avoid potential conflicts and disagrements, I would like to be with people who have respect for the others. Also personal hygiene is an important issue for me. I would like them to keep the place ( facilities and kitchen) clean after their use. I don’t smoke so, I cant share acommodation with smokers. Another point is that I don’t like noisy people but it doesn’t bother me if they stay up late watching TV or studying.
