Living alone is being independent. You live alone in your apartment, take care of your food and other necessities by yourself. You command your own finances, manage your bills and be the master of the house. However, living alone does not necessarily mean that you are lonely. SOLO-Living is the end point of processes of individualism and individualization. Ulrich Beck (Beck, 1992, Beck-Gernsheim, 1995)

However, for some people, they are not voluntarily living alone. A single person is someone who is unmarried, not in serios, commited relationship or not part of civil union as described by Tanya(2009). Klinerberg emphasizes that 'singles' may or may not live alone - some live with romantic partner, roommates or children.

Co - Living Home is a modern form of communal living in which residents get a private bedroom in a furnished home with shared common areas. Coliving is popular in major cities as a means of affordable living for students, workers, digital nomads, or individuals relocating.
