I’m a grounded, thoughtful person who values a home that feels steady and respectful. I have background is philosophy and have worked a university tutor in youth support and education, so I’m used to listening well, communicating clearly, and being mindful of how shared spaces affect people. I’m not a party-house person: home is somewhere I like to decompress, cook, read, study philosophy and education And most of all, reset. I am currently working as an online high school tutor while I finish up second master's in secondary teaching), but last masters was in philosophy

I’m friendly and easy to chat with, but I also really respect personal space and independence. I value occasional good conversations, not forced socialising. No forced philosophical discussions from me! I’m clean without being obsessive, reliable with bills, and will always do big on doing my share without drama. I tend to keep common areas tidy and believe small things (like not leaving dishes “for later”) make a big difference in shared living. Style-wise I’m pretty understated — lots of denim, boots, and practical layers — and that probably reflects how I live too: low-key, functional, and intentional.

What I’m looking for as a place that feels like a home rather than a crash pad. Ideally: Calm, respectful flatmates, clear communication and shared expectations. A tidy, looked-after space is what I value People who are comfortable doing their own thing. I’m flexible about age and background: I care more about how people live than who they are on paper. House vibes that work for me are shared responsibility, (no passive-aggressive notes lol) Quiet nights during the week and, mutual respect for routine.
