Hello!

I am moving to Amsterdam soon from the US for a job in the city center and am looking for accommodation closer to the city center. Would love to connect with possible room mates who already have a place or would like to live with me. I am hoping to get my own place soon. I am quiet and expect to be very busy with work. I am not a great cook or shopper and prefer female room mates who can help me with some of those tasks. Students are fine as well.

I like traveling, sports, going out on weekends and meeting new people. I plan to explore the city and Europe. Anyone with similar interests and want to connect, please reach out to me with the best way to contact you as I am still in the US.

Thanks.

Felix Baltes Written 5 years ago

Hey this is Felix,

22 years old Dutch-apprentice looking for a room in a flat with dutch-speaking students (but I'd take anything :D). I study music-production in Darmstadt, Germany and decided to move to Amsterdam for one term (Oct - March 2020), since I love this city so much and also want to improve my yet rather little Dutch-skills. I am interested in the city, its people and architecture, music and arts in general.
Apart from that I'd consider myself a very open minded and - I guess just as importantly - clean and tidy person and like to keep the space live in neat and quiet so that it works as a retreat.

Time is knocking on my door so please hit me up if any of the above resonated with you!

Love from Germany
Felix
