Lucy

I’m 24 in June, currently studying a Bachelor of Arts (Creative Writing) at RMIT, alongside working as a Nanny in Fitzroy. I’m relatively new to Melbourne and keen to explore the city and surrounds while settling into a calm, respectful household. With full-time study combined with work, I’d love a place to come home to where I can relax and unwind.

I’m an avid writer, reader, gardener, knitter, podcast-maker, and painter (with the latter hobby being very much a work in progress). I love live gigs, thrift shopping, and ocean swims. My music taste ranges from Radiohead to Jeff Buckley, Khruangbin to Sharon Van Etten, and Nick Cave to Kendrick Lamar. My all-time favourite podcast is Radiolab.

I’m from the Far South Coast of NSW, Yuin country, where before moving to Melbourne I worked as an outdoor education instructor, and also a Youth Convenor for a local not-for-profit organisation. Before that, I spent some time in Sydney, where I lived in share houses and loved the experience of coming home to friends, and binge-watching shows over shared meals and a glass of wine.

PS: In follow-up to aforementioned shared meals, I can cook a mean spanakopita.
PSS: My boyfriend is an artist, so I could contribute some incredible artworks to the shared spaces if there’s spots free!
