Looking for a flatshare

L: Update: This post does not apply anymore, we uh, found a flat long ago

English

Update: Click here for contact options Update: Got the news our friend won't share a flatshare with us for certain… so now it's certain we need to find something else…

Until recently… we planned to have a flatshare with a friend, who wanted to study in Berlin… right now, we're unsure if that will work out though, given it has been hard to contact said friend recently… and they… sort of hinted at maybe not wanting to live with us anymore… Which… puts us in front a pretty big challenge ‒ finding somewhere where not only we can study psychology, but we also want to live… we don't want to live alone… but we'd… have to find some creatures we're comfy with…

T.: Berlin does've some advantage, yk, lesbian bars, pride orgs, kink workshops, ya name't, but then again, it's a large city w overloaded bureaucracy, an insane flat market, etc. So like, yeah, we'd be fine w going there, then again, it's not all great, so we'd also go somewhere else after all, 't just depends on whom we end up being ablea live w where.

So… we're looking for some people which we could found a flatshare with, or whose existing flatshare we could join, if things don't work out as planned with our friend… Do you know some place in Germany which fulfills some or all of these criteria? (maybe… you even live there yourself…)

• needs to be a place where we can study psychology, and also access things like hormone therapy, and ideally electrolytic hair removal (needle epilation)
• if it isn't in Berlin… we need feedback before 15th of July… the way the DoSV (the centralized way most universities in Germany take applications, if there is a numerus clausus on the subject…) works means we need to have decided where we'd like to study most before the application deadline is over, and before we know if we even got accepted…
• flatmates should be friendly and accepting towards us… we'd… like something where we don't just share a living space, but actually… are friends or something, and do things like eating or chores, and perhaps some free time activities as well, at least on occasion… ideally, some queer/leftist people… though… if we do meals together… there might be the problem we're somewhat pescatarian/vegetarian/vegan, yet very picky at the same time… we do like cooking, though, for what it's worth, assuming we have enough time…
• shouldn't be too far from things like university, physician's offices, grocery stores, etc.… like, say less than one hour with public transport…
• VDSL2 or better internet connection (our 100Mb/s down / 40Mb/s up VDSL2 connection… has barely been enough sometimes, with the services we host… so FTTH or at least DOCSIS would be better…), with at least one of, ideally both of IPv4/IPv6 public addresses being non-shared, and available to us without specific ISP firewall restrictions, so we can keep hosting our things… as long as you don't need the ports we need… we'll gladly manage the LAN…
• space for a double bed in our room would be nice… when we have people visiting us, and such…
• we're… noise-sensitive… not sure if we could sleep well if there's lots of traffic nearby even at night, without good noise isolation… especially things like rails used by night trains…

I… know it might be hard to fulfill all of that… but… some might be possible, and we would compromise on the others, what really matters is we find… something at all… So… please do share, with people you know, who fit, or might know someone else…
