Hi! I’m Micah, I'm 23 and non-binary. I moved out of home this year due to experiencing severe transphobia so housemates who are trans or allies is a must for me. I am currently unemployed (receiving JobSeeker payments) due to disability but am fully capable of living independently/with a housemate. I also occasionally receive extra income from participating in local theatre projects and selling my crochet makes. I am open to living anywhere that is within short walking distance of a bus stop or train station. I don’t own a car and am unable to walk very far so access to public transport is a necessity for me. My budget is $200/week for rent alone, or $250/week including bills.
I am very much a homebody; spending most of my time making music, crocheting and generally crafting, and watching tv/gaming. I am a very social person and love to chat, do activities with, and generally exist in the same room as people; but I also need a good amount of personal time, and am very respectful of others’ need for the same. I try to maintain a ‘tidy as I go’ habit to ensure I leave all common areas free of mess after I’m done, however during times where i am more affected by my disabilities i appreciate patience and understanding from housemates.
I adore animals and will gladly assist in taking care of pets in any capacity I can. This would likely include; feeding, poop scooping (given they aren’t too gnarly), playing, and the occasional short walk on a good pain day. I have my own cat who will be staying at my mum's house until I’m able to get my own place, so I would be glad to have an animal companion (or a few) around to keep me company.
