Hi there,
I am Yatong Wen, a female postdoctoral researcher at Karolinska Institutet (KI). I am currently living in KI Housing, but my contract will soon end, so I am now looking for a suitable apartment near the Solna or central Stockholm area.
I am a calm and responsible person, non-smoker, and not into parties. I like to keep my living space clean, tidy, and cozy. Ideally, I hope the room can be kept clean and cozy, with some green plants to bring a fresh atmosphere. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, cooking simple meals, and going for walks in nature.
I also love animals and would be happy to live in a pet-friendly place. Ideally, I would prefer accommodation where the landlord or other tenants are female.
Since I am living alone, I would very much like to find a quiet and private space where I can focus on my research and also rest after work.
I am looking for either a studio or a one-bedroom apartment, furnished if possible. Ideally, the rental period could be for 6–12 months starting from November 2025, with the possibility of extension.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to know more details about me or my stay. I am happy to provide references and proof of employment.
Looking forward to hearing from you! Best regards, Dr. Yatong Wen yatong.wen@ki.se
