We are looking for someone who

Are you looking for a place to party, a spotless environment, or someone to keep an eye on your every move? Then look elsewhere 😊. Are you looking for a place where you are welcome whether you seek peace and privacy, and also if you want to cook, eat, or play a board game together, where we do our best to keep everything tidy but sometimes fail, where the garden also welcomes some weeds, where one person likes to chat or do something together (Ine) and the other likes to be left alone a bit (Mirko), where spelling (and other) errors are not a sin... then you have come to the right place! If you’re looking for a party spot, a spotless environment, or someone to keep tabs on your every move—then you’d best look elsewhere 😊. But if you’re looking for a place where you’re welcome whether you want peace and privacy or feel like cooking, eating, or playing a board game together; a place where we try our best to keep things tidy but don't always succeed; where the garden is allowed to host a few weeds; where one person loves a chat or doing things together (Ine) while the other prefers to be left alone (Mirko); and where spelling errors aren't a cardinal sin... then you've come to the right place!

These things we like to do togther

Co-housing is relatively new to us. We decide on the atmosphere and shared activities together. I'm thinking of: cooking and eating together (not every day), a chat, a board game, watching a series together... And lots of time to ourselves. I work full-time outside the home; on weekends I enjoy going for walks and I also have to do housework. Mirko is a quiet young adult, is going to work, and still needs to get used to it. In his free time, he is often in his room or out and about (3D printing, cycling, Gallic Farm, his girlfriend...). His girlfriend is also here regularly. The house has been our home for years. We feel that we have the space to let someone feel at home in our home temporarily. We do not (yet) have the 'space' to create a new home together with a co-houser. Co-living is relatively new to us. We would figure out the atmosphere and shared activities together—I'm thinking of things like cooking and eating together (though not every day), chatting, playing board games, watching a series together... while also having plenty of personal time.
I work full-time outside the home; on weekends, I enjoy going for walks and also need to take care of household chores. Mirko is a quiet young adult who has started working and is still adjusting to that routine. In his free time, he spends a lot of time in his room or out of the house (3D printing, cycling, the Gallic Farm project, his girlfriend, etc.). His girlfriend is also around quite often.
This house has been our home for years. We feel we have the space to let someone feel at home here temporarily, though we don't (yet) have the capacity to create a *new* home together with a co-living partner.
