We are looking for someone who

- Working or engaged in a regular schedule (job/self-employed/internship/research), with a stable schedule and a sense of responsibility. - Prefers a quiet home base: respect for privacy, minimal drama, and clear communication. - Neat and caring: can participate in a simple cleaning rotation and leaves common areas tidy. - Respects house rules such as quiet hours (after 10:00 PM), no smoking indoors, and generally being considerate of each other. - Long-term oriented: someone who prefers to "come home" rather than constantly moving. ## What fits Cyclo Casa well: - Open-minded and internationally oriented, with respect for differences. - Reasonable with energy/water and shared belongings (living together = caring together). - Willing to share (kitchen/living space/garden) without it becoming a "social obligation" home: everyone has their own life, and there's always a nice chat every now and then.

Something more about your co-residents

You'll live with people who view shared housing as a peaceful, well-organized home base (not a party place), with clear agreements and respect for each other's boundaries. Personality & Atmosphere - Open-minded and respectful; we communicate directly and resolve issues through discussion. - Everyone has their own lives, but there's also room for a positive group atmosphere. Rhythm & Activities - Predominantly working/professional housemates with their own schedules, so peace and predictability in the home are important. - There are set times for coordination, including dinner/talk/cleaning, to plan effectively and keep the house running smoothly. Daily Habits - Cleanliness is paramount, especially in the kitchen and common areas; there's a cleaning schedule that everyone follows. - Quiet hours are respected, especially between 10:00 PM and 9:00 AM. - Shoes are removed inside the house; Smoking indoors is not permitted. Social, guests & appointments - Occasionally, there are dinners/activities; anyone inviting guests should announce this in advance, especially for larger gatherings. - Sometimes there are also short-stay guests; this is done in consultation to ensure it remains manageable for everyone.

These things we like to do togther

The atmosphere in the house is peaceful, social, and open, with a strong emphasis on respect and good communication, but without a mandatory "hippie commune" feel. ## Atmosphere in the house - There is a friendly and international atmosphere: people from different countries, with tolerance for diverse lifestyles and backgrounds. - Conflicts or tensions are preferably addressed through consultation and direct, honest communication, so that the atmosphere remains manageable for everyone. ## Recurring activities - Every Thursday there is a regular "dinner/talk/cleaning" time or home brunch around 2:00 PM, where we eat together, clean, and talk about the house and living together. - On the first day of each month, there is a collective "cyclo dinner" to discuss practical matters of the house while also simply sitting at the table together. ## Additional social events - Housemates are welcome to organize their own dinners, small parties, or gatherings; for more than three additional guests, this will be announced in advance within the group. - We regularly have overnight guests or short-term guests (e.g., friends, CouchSurfers), which creates a dynamic yet respectful social energy in the house.
