I prefer to share a house with my friends because it'll help save money and somebody to hang out with

I used to live in rented properties for years when i was younger , the hardest part was to find nice and clean flatmates . i am still friends with some of them and we did indeed shared some great adventures together .

I like living alone, but somethimes it would be great to share the flat with an other person I like. So you can have a nice talk in the evenings or cook together on weekends. Rent in Germany is becoming increasingly expensive. Sometimes you haven't a choice to share a flat.

Actually, I really prefer to live alone because i can do all what i want without someone to bother me, but also I do love to have someone in my house to share ideas, so in brief I like to live with someone who i love!

I prefer to live alone. It's not because I hate people, but I am not a talkative person, and I like to be in a calm environment.

I was studying in Germany for 5 years. I prefer to share a more ensuite bedroom house with my best friends, it makes me happy and do not feel alone and do not get homesick a lot.
