Zimmer in der GSS 193 ab Januar

The flat is located in the north-west of the Leipzig central station. You can get to the city centre in about 15 minutes with the tram or a bike. The closest lake is about 20-30 minutes away with the bike. If you just want to get out of the grey and into the green of nature you can do that by foot. It takes about 15 minutes to reach the river and 5 more minutes to reach a vast forest.

You can go for biking tours along the river or just stroll along the river side path. If you want to go for drinks your closest bet are the city center or Plagwitz (west part of Leipzig). With the S-Bahn you can get to Plagwitz in less than 10 minutes. If you take the bike it'll take about 15 minutes.

You will share the flat with my three roommates.

First, there is Pauline. She studies Earth System Data Science and Remote Sensing. She is usually busy with her two jobs plus the school but you will always see her smiling. During her free time, you can find her doing yoga, going out for mushroom hunting in the nearby forest or watching a series (probably Avatar). She loves to talk about science and scientific topics in general so you can always hear interesting facts from her.

Then, we have Hanna. She studies Social Work at HTWK. When she is not working, she occasionally likes to go clubbing or grab some drinks at a bar. She also repaints and renovates different types of furniture to sell it online. She is, at the same time, very handy with the sewing machine, tidying and modifying clothes. She is also a really good listener and very understanding.

There is also Jakob who is very relaxed. He loves music and acting. He often jams with his guitar and loves to sing. He would be happy to get together and jam with you. At the moment he is writing his master’s thesis on Societal Theory at the University of Jena. He loves to banter and joke around. His interest in politics, theory and sociology make him a truly formidable opponent in an argument. When he is not injured, he loves to play football and do yoga/work out.

Your fourth flatmate Tom is currently doing an Erasmus in Naples and will be back in March, replacing Hanna. He likes cooking, playing (card) games, talking about politics, playing football and going out to concerts and techno parties.

We are looking for a flatmate who wants more than just a place to live but who wants to participate in our active flat life. We like cook and eat together and spend evenings together in our large living room or on our sunny balcony. At the weekends we like to go cycling together in the countryside or to open air concerts. We also regularly play cards and other games.

In our flat we have plenty of space on our two balconies and in our large kitchen for joint hangover breakfasts. We have a cleaning schedule, help each other a lot and are always happy to have visitors. We also have a vegetable garden in our backyard. If you like gardening, you are welcome to join us.

Those are of course just crude descriptions of my roommates, but I hope you get a vague picture.

I hope this is enough for you to guess how living in this flat might turn out. Just let me know and we can arrange for a personal meeting with all my flatmates or if it's more convenient an online meeting.

Since the house is quite big, we do have a cleaning tasks for specific rooms. We expect people to take responsibility and follow them.
