Bridghid

My name is Bridghid and I moved to Melbourne from the U.S last week.

I’m 29 years old and originally from Philadelphia, but have lived in a few different places around the US (New York, Boston, and others). I’ve lived with several roommates as I’ve moved around, and also grew up in a large family, so I’m used to sharing space with others.

It’s been a dream of mine since I was young to live in Australia, so I’m super excited to be here. I’m on the working holiday visa to start, and then if I enjoy living here and want to extend my stay I’ll likely try to continue my career in higher education.

I only know a handful of people in Melbourne so I’m looking forward to being friendly with my housemates as I continue building community here. I’m definitely a social butterfly who likes to stay busy, and then I use time at home to recharge. I like to stay active, go out to live events (sports, music, comedy), read, journal and I’m always down for a happy hour or coffee chat!
