What advice do you have for someone who is looking for a roommate?
Haley: Use social media to meet and talk to people. Once you find somebody that you “click” with, ask them to meet for coffee and get to know them better! That’s how I found Alyssa. I’m so glad that my roomie is one of my best friends because I couldn’t imagine it any other way!
Alyssa: Go with your gut and keep an open mind! Haley was the person I thought I would get along with best. We actually do mesh really well and now I don’t only have a roommate, but a best friend!
Could this room get any cuter?
