It's a bed and a desk, they even had to cut up the bed otherwise it wouldn't fit into the room. He custom made his desk for the small space. They have two other bedrooms in that house, a shared kitchen and a small garden. No living area, although they often use the largest bedroom room as one.
He has been living in Amsterdam for almost two years now, if you're young, don't want to spend a lot of money and you want to live in "de ring" (the inner city) it's your only option.
It's perfectly livable though!
- wffurr 12y agoIt sounds like a small space, but since it is a shared unit, saying he only has 8 sq M is misleading. Instead, it is 3 people living in ~40 sq M. I did the same thing when I first moveD to Boston. I got a bedroom in a four bedroom one bath townhouse, and the rent was quite reasonable split four ways. The shared kitchen and bath were not a problem, and I had plenty of space for one person with just a bed, desk, and dresser. Now I pay more than that entire place for a 60 sq M place for my wife and me, that is only a 15 minute bike ride from work.
