Hello everyone,
I'm Bastien. I'm a 35-year-old professional originally from Lyon, France. I would like to find my dream room in a nice share house in the surrounding areas of Melbourne for the next 12 months.
To share a little bit about myself, I have just returned to Australia after a year abroad, spending time with my family and travelling to Chiang Mai, my second home.
My first time in Australia was in 2019, when I arrived in Perth a few months before the COVID lockdowns happened. I spent a few years there before heading to Melbourne in 2022, where I've lived my best life until 2025.
I am planning to stay in Melbourne for a year, enjoying the remaining year of my visa as much as I can, or maybe finding a sponsorship opportunity that could allow me to stay longer. Let's see :)
I would consider myself a respectful and chilled person with values and integrity, but I also don't take things to seriously and enjoy a bit of banter with people I'm close to.
I am not a clean freak, but I do need to have a clean and tidy environment. Especially when many people are living together, I think it's quite important to maintain a healthy home at all times.
I enjoy cooking, as this is my occupation, and sharing what I do.
Going on food tour around the city is also something I like to do, especially looking for hidden gem places.
I'm social enough, but not a party animal. I actually prefer one-on-one or small-group conversations, and I tend to prefer a quieter house over loud places.
About my career, I work in hospo as a Chef de Partie, mostly in hotels and fine-dining restaurants.
I like to go outside when I'm not working, walking around Albert Park or Merri Creek.
Well, I think that's enough to give you an idea of who I am.
If you feel like we could be a match, feel free to contact me :)
Bastien
