Chris

Hi Everyone! I'm Chris, your super-awesome-amazing-wonderful potential new housemate! I'm currently seeking a new place to live as my current situation has proven itself to me slightly less than optimal for my current circumstances.

A little bit about me: I am a very kind, nurturing person, who can sometimes be a little shy at times but easily able to open up once I get to know someone. I have a deep love for keeping active as well as anything to do with the outdoors. I'm always down for a swim, hike or bike ride, and have recently started playing competitive water polo. I'm also very much your stereotypical nerd; I love a good board or video game, as well as digging deep into a good science fiction novel when I have the time (Current read: Contact by Carl Sagan). I love to cook, and especially love it when I have people to cook for. I'm also someone who strongly values a clean and organized household, but don't worry; I know life gets in the way sometimes so it's not like I'm an asshole about it.

As for my ideal living situation? Right now, I'm not too fussy. I'd ideally like to have housemates somewhere around my own age (mid 20s-early 30s) who have a relatively good idea of what they're doing with their lives, however I'm not too fussy; as long as you're sane, respectful and not someone who's going to force me to do the dishes all the time we should get along just fine. I'm also not too fussy in terms of location- I've mostly been working odd jobs to pay the bills lately so am not currently tied down to any one location, so as long as I'm within an hour or so of the CBD I should be happy. Ditto in terms of the house itself- Ideally I'll be able to have a decent amount of privacy when needed (so no shared rooms), and would love some kind of garage or workspace for tinkering on my bikes etc, however again I'm not too fussy there. My one non-negotiable is that any place I end up must be a place that is respectful and affirming of different identities and life experiences- as a proud member of both the LGBTQIA+ and Autistic communities I have unfortunately had far too many experiences where people have been either unwilling or unable to provide me with even a basic level of tolerance or respect, and do not wish to waste any more of my life dealing with those kinds of attitudes.

So anyway, don't be afraid to shoot me a message if you think I might be a good fit for your place. You probably wouldn't have read this far if you didn't already think that was the case, so please don't waste any time getting in touch!
