Finn

Hi all - Finn here!

I’m a Brisbane local currently studying psychology and working part-time in the corporate health space. I’m looking for a place to call home for the next 1-3 years ideally. I’m open to share houses/flats, stufio/granny flats, and setups that don’t fit neatly in either category!

I come with a diverse personal and professional background, combined with a decade+ of sharehousing. Basically this means i am fully housetrained! 😅

I have been the solo boy in all woman identifying houses, shared places with only other boys, and most of the possible co-ed gender combos. My slight preference would be for a good balance, but I’m genuinely open to all - I’ve enjoyed each different way of living.

Would love to join a place where the basics aren’t a consistent issue ie dishes, general tidiness etc. I have zero issues with any type of cleaning from tidying to bond-level deep cleans. I also have experience in general property maintenance for little bits n bobs that may come up. Essentially an expert lightbulb screwer haha.

My schedule and living style tends to be phasic based on my uni semesters. I’m always up for a chat over a Bev or some noms - housemate dinner nights and stuff are great. That being said, in the delirium that is assessment season during semester, you may look around one day and ask the gang; “Has anyone actually you know.. tried talking to the wraith that has been floating in and out of Finn’s room earlier and later than usual, or not at all?”
“I did!” One of your amazing house mates will say.
“Oh yeah? What did he say?”
A quizzical look flashes on their face, “Not much honestly, he assured me he is okay and will be pack with us corporeally soon and not to worry. Although he didn’t so much say it as communicate it through silent screams - but i got the gist, he’ll be aight”
“That’s good to hear - do you have any coffee? mine just ran out” 😱😱

‘Scuse the novel, but it serves a purpose. I can confidently say I’m a fully grown big kid with good socialisation and survival (life) skills - a real claim to fame i know! 😅

I don’t expect anything else of you or the other potential roomies, we’re all just trying to dance the dance for as long and as well as we can - in unison with a community if at all possible as we go.

This strange shared space we’ve found ourselves in that is a flatmates message thread or listings board, is the only time i ever have to state in writing that i know how to take the bins out on the right night 😂

I prefer the world where we don’t have to address this, and hope to contribute to it’s swifter arrival. However i also realise the need and my starter pokemon privilege 🙋‍♂️.
I’m comfortable with any type, sub-type, or otherwise to be discovered version of the human experience someone was born with, did or didn’t develop, or chose to adopt along the way. Studying psychology, living and travelling overseas 3+ years, and enough work experience to have a few oddball gigs in my past informed an early attitude of initial confusión and then inclusión of almost all ways people want to play this sweet lil game of life we’ve got going. I’m a straight white dude - not much to it and I’m more of a “this isn’t about me tbh so I’ll just get out of the way let me know if n when you need a hand - I’ll be over here rock climbing and building toy soldiers while i listen to audio books about the toy soldiers etc etc etc 😂

If you made it this far good lord you’re a trooper. Thanks a bunch and hope to hear from you! 🕺

It’s 100% your preference but I’ve included my number and happy to take a text so we can put a quick call in the diary - might be easier in case we have an unknown unknown lurking somewhere 👀

If not all round - good luck and feel free to shoot any tips through! Haha I’ll do the same if friends are looking 🤝✊
