I'm Raoul.
I’m good company, and genuinely easy to live with.
Currently finishing my honours in psychology.
I work in the resources sector and I'll be away roughly 75% of the time, so I'm after something cheap and practical. The upside for whoever I live with is pretty obvious — the place is mostly yours.
When I am home, here's what that actually looks like. Some days I'm out — beach, coffee, friends. Other days I'm planted at my laptop building something nerdy with AI tools, completely in my own world and not bothering anyone. Most evenings there's decent food involved because I actually know how to cook. I’m a big fan of Herdsman Fresh and Torre Butchers.
If the mood's right and we end up at the kitchen table with a gin or a cider putting the world to rights — psychology, philosophy, theology, politics, whatever rabbit hole we fall down — that's a good night. I'm genuinely curious about people and I love a conversation that goes somewhere. I also know when to leave someone alone.
I'm direct. People sometimes need a minute to calibrate to that but they generally end up appreciating it. What you won't get is passive aggression, moodiness, or any of the weird unspoken flatmate tension that makes living with someone exhausting. I say what I mean, I keep my space clean, and I'm actually in your corner if you ever need it.
Not looking for a party house. Happy for friends over for dinner and drinks — just not interested in the place being trashed every weekend.
If that sounds like your kind of living situation, get in touch.
