Living with a roommate can be fun and challenging and when you actually get along and become friends it is even better. Either you barely know your flatmate or either you know each other for some time, you'll probably feel the need to do something to search for ways to bond with your roommate. What a better way to get close to your roommate and to change the boring atmosphere than doing activities together.

So, here are 11 Fun Things to do with your roommate for a quality time together:

1. A Movie Night

By proper we mean a good movie atmosphere with popcorn, nachos, juice and other snacks that you prefer. We also advice to dedicate your time for each other without social media scrolling.

You may try also a whole tv-series night. Those who fall asleep first must come up with a better activity idea next time.

11. Read or learn together

We all know that when it comes to learning we hardly begin. This is a good way to motivate each other. Or if you decide to have reading classes together you can share what you have read and so the reading will become even more interesting.

Now, roommates don’t have to be best friends, but getting along and being able to understand each other is a must.
