Lachie and Nikita

Hey! My partner Nikita and I are planning to move to Melbourne around mid-January from Byron Bay. We met in Brisbane five years ago and decided it’s time for a new adventure. We’re both experienced in share-house living — individually and as a couple — so we know how to be respectful, clean, and considerate, and how to contribute to a warm, community-minded home.

We love creating a space where everyone feels comfortable, relaxed, and supported. We’re pretty focused during the week, but we’re definitely up for the occasional shared dinner, movie night, or vino on the weekend — while also respecting everyone’s downtime.

A bit more about us:

Nikita (26, she/her): Life of the party and I'm a competitive card-game enthusiast. Always keen to try a new wine bar or dive into a creative project. I love the gym, journaling, reading, and all things pottery. I have a double degree in Marketing and Fashion Communications. I'm currently working in retail while planning to study again in 2026.

Lachie (25, he/him): I'm an actor currently living the starving-artist dream, with hospitality on the side to keep things rolling. I'm laidback, easy to get along with, and a low-key germaphobe — so the cleaning skills are elite. I love playing guitar, going to the gym, watching films and theatre.

Rosie (3, cocker spaniel): The people’s princess. A little shy at first, but once she’s settled she’s a full-time snuggle bug. Very calm around other animals and mostly just wants pats, food, and to share any carrot she catches you eating.

We’re clean, considerate, and always pull our weight — plus we come with glowing references. If you have a room within our budget and think we’d be a good fit, we’d be stoked to hear from you!
