In a shared residence, creating a comfortable and friendly atmosphere among housemates is crucial for a harmonious living experience.

One effective way to foster connections and break the initial awkwardness is through the use of ice breakers. These activities or items can help turn a group of strangers into a close-knit community.

Here are some of the best things you can bring from your home to the share house:

1.Board Games and Card Games

You know what’s an instant mood lifter? Board games and card games! Dust off that Monopoly set, grab Uno, Jenga, or whatever gets you rolling the dice. Have a mini-game night that turns strangers into a competitive yet fun crowd.

2. Tech Gadgets and Gaming Consoles

Maximize your share house experience by bringing devices like Nintendo Switch, PlayStation or Xbox for gaming enthusiasts. Try to invite your housemates for multiplayer sessions for shared entertainment. Having a speaker is also a nice way to lift up the mood by playing a nice music in the common areas.

3. Movie or TV Series Collections

Are you a movie buff or a TV series lover? Get those DVD collections, Blu-rays or a loaded streaming device ready. Movie nights are not just about watching films, they’re also about shared laughter, debates on plot twists, and creating inside jokes only your housemates understand!

4. Musical Instruments

Who’s got the guitar skills or can pull off a cool keyboard riff? Share the music love by bringing in those instruments. Cue impromptu jam sessions or gather up for a mini concert. Bonding over a shared love for music is a pretty cool activity with your housemates!

5. Books and Magazines

Our share house has a communal bookshelf where you can put your books for swapping reads. Maybe you can even start a mini book club where you can discuss about different literary tastes and create intellectual connections among housemates.

6. Photography Gear

Are you in the mood for a photo op? Bring in cameras or Polaroids to capture those candid or epic share house moments. Create a shared photo album that’s like a visual diary of your journey from strangers to buddies or create your personal share house journey that will make you reminisce those shared moments.

7. Unique Item from Home

Why not bring a little piece of your home country to share with everyone? Think of your favorite snacks from home, or maybe a traditional arts and crafts materials, or even traditional game board. These items will surely allow your housemates to embark on a multicultural experience.

There you have it, friends! Your ultimate guide to turning your share house into a hangout place! Bring in those games, instruments, and good vibes. Let the laughter echo through the halls, the music flow through the rooms and artistic vibe in every corner. Cheers to building friendships, creating memories, and turning your share house into the coolest spot in town!
