Anywhere in the city or neighbouring areas, Delft and The Hague too, if need be.
Wensen pand
A single room in a welcoming home.
I don’t care about the space too much, mostly interested in the people. Nevertheless, I particularly appreciate DIY furniture 🧰, plenty of plants 🪴, and all objects and elements that give an identity to the place. 🌼
Wensen groep
A community of comradery, empathy, and care. 💕
I wish the group of humans I live with to be neurodivergent- and queer-friendly 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️. I would love us to do things and have many moments and conversations together. At the same time, I strongly value boundaries and alone time 🧘. The equilibrium of our living together must be based on earnest, sensitive, and conscious communication, so that we can all understand and respect each other. ❤️
Unfortunately, I have issues with pets: I am afraid of dogs, and I am a bit allergic to cats. This is not a deal-breaker, as I want to overcome these limits, but it’s something that we have to take in consideration.
Beschrijf jezelf
I am a white, heterosexual, demimasculine person, born and raised in Italy, who has travelled and lived in vastly different environments in many European countries.
Those who know me say I have a lot of energy, and that I am full of ideas. Nevertheless, I also feel the oppressive, unjust, and violent pressure of the individualistic, patriarchal and capitalist society we live in. I am quite bad at dealing with this. Therefore, I am usually joyful and positive, committed to do my part to make the planet a bit better, but sometimes I am overwhelmed by all the troubling inputs I receive.
I am looking for a community of empathy and understanding also because of this. As I believe that as happiness is only real when shared (cit.), I also think that struggle and pain can be managed only if they don’t fall upon the shoulders of single individuals, but rather if they are addressed collectively. I see cooperative housing as the first but critical step towards building a more horizontal and participatory environment, in which communal dwelling goes beyond a mere economical necessity.
I tend to talk a lot, and I like it, but only when it’s not vacuous chitchat. I love listening too, and I am into gossip more than I care to admit.
More practical stuff: - I am moving to Rotterdam because I am starting the master https://xpub.nl at WdKA, so I will be living there *at least* a couple of years. - I have ADHD - I am a native Italian speaker, I fluently speak English and French, I can get by with a bit of Spanish, and I am very interested in learning Dutch, too. - I am not an expert technician, but I am a nerd and my main interest is in Political Technology, so I am super interested about anything related to digital rights, tinkering with stuff, building and hacking things. Happy to contribute to the house also in this way.
