$350/week•50 year old man
Looking to move end of August. Very busy until next week so I might not reply, but I will get back to you as soon as I can.
Hi, I'm Rick. After having to move back to the country for a short while in 2023, I'm struggling finding my own rental property in Melbourne. I'm currently boarding in the northeast with terrific house mates, but it's too far out (takes me almost 2 hours to get home currently) and I want to be closer to the city for work and socials .
- I'm looking for a home, not a party house, where I have space to recharge mentally and physically. Preferably with a study space or large bedroom as I work from home two days a week and also writing/studying.
- I've shared in the past with all ages and backgrounds and know the drill with respecting personal space, keeping common areas clean, putting bins out, noise, etc -- being an adult! Happy to provide references and a police check.
- I love reading (I own a lot of books). I'm also a writer plus learning to draw. Love the arts, history archaeology, SFF and games (yes, Dungeons & Dragons, I can be a nerd), travel/culture, watching Josh Gates's Expedition Unknown or Bettany Hughes, films, dessert, all the good stuff in life. Be great to share with other creatives but no deal breaker. Might also be studying ancient Greek history and planning a big trip next year.
- Week days I'm out for the 9-5 work grind, gym in evenings a few times a week and maybe out for a board games night. I can be a hermit working on a novel, but I'm always up for a chat about the work day and life. Oh, and sunny Sunday motorcycle rides for an ice cream.
- Very allergic to perfumed candles, incense, etc. Like a vampire with sunlight.
- I'm also a cat whisperer -- lost my soul cat of 15 years, so if you need to go on holiday I can definitely look after kitty. I get along with dogs, rabbits, fish, birds, reptiles, spiders, and insects too.
- I'm a non-smoker, no vaping, and prefer the same. If you're an anti-vaxxer, please don't message me.
- I have a motorcycle I ride for commuting and to get an ice cream on sunny Sundays. Will need off-street parking.
- I'd like to be on the lease or at least see it -- be fair with the rent please, too many people taking advantage of the housing crisis.
- Just looking for like-minded people to share a home with in these crazy times.
- I'm over 40 but honestly don't feel it. No girlfriend or messy divorce, in my Obi-Wan Kenobi phase for a while and just chilling in my own space.
