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 would like to share a room with a smoking person because I also smoke so I can deal with it. I don't have a problem with sharing a bathroom, but I can't share bathroom kits. I am humble and talkative, so my future roommate doesn't need to worry. Just make yourself feel at home. Lastly, I just can do simple cooking, so if you are Masterchef, I won't hesitate to accept you as my roommate :).
I would like to share a room with non-smoking persons who have a good personality and accept criticism, if possible, in the same field of activity with a good culture and likes sports.
The kind of people I would like to share a house or flat with are those who have these characteristics:
Good practice!

I want to find a flatmate who is non-smoking because I don't smoke. I am a morning bird and into playing sports. Therefore, I would like to find a person who is sporty and can go to bed early. I have a healthy diet and prefer to share my meals with my roommate.
What kind of people would you like to share a house or flat with?
I prefer a shared room with 2 people only but only non-smoking persons. I like friends who are get up early in the morning and try to sleep on time as well. I like to get up early in the morning and go to the park for exercise and freshen my mind. I like vegetable and meat both so I pefer people that like both type of foods. I like people who do not waste their time and my time because time is very precious and will not come back once gone.
I prefer non-smoking accommodation,because I'm not smoker and I dont like people who's smokers.
