Hi, I'm Paul, 23 year old law student from Germany, currently on exchange at Deakin (Burwood) until July 2027. I've been in Melbourne for a few weeks and I'm looking to move closer to the city – ideally inner north/east or the CBD – from early/mid December.
I'm on campus two days a week and work part-time remotely for a law firm back home, so I'm around a fair bit but keep to myself when I'm working. Outside of that I run, cook (properly – I'll happily feed the house), follow F1 and football, and mess around with podcasting and design projects. Big fan of dogs and cats, so pets in the house are a plus, not a problem.
What I'm like to live with: I'm genuinely tidy, not "tidy on the profile". I clean up after myself straight away, keep the kitchen and bathroom in a state I'd be happy to show to guests, and I'm fine doing my share of the common areas. I'm looking for people who feel the same way – a clean, calm home matters a lot to me, and I'd rather be upfront about that than find out it's not a match in week two. Beyond that I'm easy-going, communicate if something's up, and pay rent on time – I've got stable income and savings. Not after a party house, but I'm very much up for the occasional dinner, drinks or movie night with housemates. Happy to meet in person or jump on a call anytime.
