I think living alone is a little bit hard and scary .. U can't handle with everythings and of course presence of a housemate is helpful and funny ..

I prefer to live alone in an ensuite room instead of share with other people. But I want there is someone else around me in another room. I can do anything that I like without disturbing and annoying other people. I can sing loudly because I really like singing.

If I could have a single ensuite room I would share a house with other nice guys. Otherwise I'd like to live rather alone in a small flat near the city centre.

If I have to live without my parent, prefer to live alone. but I like get-together friends or family. and if I have to get a shared house I prefer to have a personal ensuite single room and shared a kitchen and living room.
