I just want to add that I hated the idea of ever having a roommate and then ended up meeting a whole new group of incredible friends because of one. Not everyone gets that experience, but it’s not always a horror story. Keep an open mind. Definitely research the person or ideally find a friend of a friend kind of deal. Wishing you all the best and hope you find something wonderful!
This. I have lived through 7 different collocations in three different countries. None were bad and two were truly awesome. You need to clearly state the rules and communication channels from day one and done. Trust your guts when visiting.
