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

  1. If the form is on paper, write clearly. Use capital letters if your handwriting isn't clear.
  2. If there is not much space to write, make a list instead of writing full sentences.
  3. Check it. It's easy to make small mistakes!

I would like to share a flat with someone who loves peace and silent. I don't like a talkative person so I would prefer to share with the one who respect the other person's privacy.

I get tired of people quickly, so I don’t wanna share room with someone. Home for me a place where I can relax. But if it’s necessary I would prefer to share room with quiet, clean girl :)

I am not a talkative person also not so good at communicate with others so I prefer to share a room with someone that'll respect other's personal space but with a reasonable idea of it, not too much

I would like to share a house with nearly the same as like me. I love travelling and talking about the future plan. And then, I like to learn different language. If possible, I want to live with the person from different country and different language. I want to learn their language and their culture, their tradition.
