Looking for accommodation

Visiting Researcher Seeks Quiet Studio/Room near KI Solna (~5000-10000 SEK)
Hello,
I am a visiting researcher who will be based at KI Solna starting in late February 2026. I am looking for a quiet studio or one-bedroom apartment for an initial period of 3 to 6 months, with the possibility of extension depending on my project's progress. My ideal move-in date is early March 2026.
My key requirements are:
• Location: A quiet area in Solna or Sundbyberg with convenient access (walking, cycling, or short public transport) to KI Solna campus.
• Budget: 5000 – 10000 SEK/month.
• Layout: A private bathroom is essential. A private kitchen is preferred but not an absolute requirement.
• Condition: Clean, well-maintained, and conducive to a peaceful living environment.
About me: I am a responsible, optimistic, tidy, and quiet professional. I value a calm home for reading and unwinding after work, and enjoy outdoor activities like running and walking.
If you have a suitable apartment available, please contact me at yb@wmu.edu.cn with details including the exact location, size, rent, utilities included, and some photos.
Thank you for your time and consideration

Hey!I’m Gaya, a research assistent at KI, looking for a new place to live. I’m looking for a furnished room/studio/apartment that allows me to commute to the Flemingsberg campus within approximately 1 hour. Currently, I already live in Flemingsberg, but I will have to move out before February 1st. The move-in date is therefore flexible between now and the end of January. It would be great if I could live somewhere until the end of November 2026.
Some more background information about me, I’m 24 years old and from the Netherlands. In my free time I love hiking, visiting museums and watching movies (either at home or at the cinema). Beside that, I love cooking and baking so it would be amazing if your place has a nice kitchen with oven. I like living in a tidy and organized space, so I always clean up. Furthermore, I don’t smoke and don’t own any pets (although I do like animals).
My budget is up to 10,000 SEK/month.
Please let me know if you have any more questions! You can reach me by email at gaya.verhagen@xs4all.nl Kind regards, Gaya

Dear all, My name is Haydn Farrelly, I am moving from the UK to start a postdoc at KI in March 2026. I am looking for an apartment for myself and my partner, Cate. We will both be working full time in Stockholm, we are quiet, tidy, non-smokers, and do not have any pets. We are looking for a two bedroom (or three bedroom) apartment so we have space for a home office and to have somewhere for family members to stay when visiting.
We would ideally like to be within an hour of Solna campus, but we are open to areas slightly further away. We would also like as many utilities (electricity, water, heating etc.) included in the rent as possible, and for the apartment to be furnished where possible. Partly furnished would also be okay for us. If you think we may be a good fit for your apartment please contact me. Thank you!

Dear all, we are Rita and Miguel and we are looking for accommodation from the end of Jan/beginning of February to the end of July/mid-August 2026. Rita will be working as a KI research specialist in the Solna campus and Miguel will be working between Sweden and France (where we currently live and where Miguel has his team/laboratory installed). We are looking for a one-bedroom apartment, smoke free. We have a 14-yo in-house cat and a well-behaved 3-yo labradoodle (who has partly followed training to become a guide dog). We would prefer a commuting time that is no longer than 40 min. We are city people but we would not mind a bit of peace and quiet either. You can contact us at a.rita.d.araujo@gmail.com and miguel-godinho.ferreira@unice.fr  Thank you for your consideration.
