Hey! We're a couple from England who have been working in Melbourne to fund the next part of our travels to SE Asia. Currently living in Richmond but the guys room we're in are back on 7/10/18, so looking for a short term let until 12/11/2018 when we fly out of Melbourne. I'm working in Administration and Nathan works in Construction. We're clean and tidy, easy going and respectful! Hoping to find someone who's going overseas for a while and we could look after your room while you're away. This is an early post, but if you know you have something available from 6 or 7th October - 12th November 2018, give me a message! Thanks :-)
Alice
Looking in: Toorak, South Yarra, Richmond, Prahran, Fitzroy, East Melbourne, Collingwood, Abbotsford
I'm Alice, and I'm returning to Melbourne after living in London for two years. I work as a pastry chef, and do love to cook at home. I'm generally pretty quiet and chill at home, and don't make a fuss about anything. Looking for somewhere with social housemates who still do their own thing- it's nice to have that balance in a share house.
Tahlie
Looking in: Carlton, Thornbury, Preston, Northcote, Fitzroy, Collingwood, Coburg, Brunswick, Abbotsford
Hi, my name is Tahlie and I have just moved from the far south coast of NSW to Melbourne to work and study! I am working in hospo and I am currently searching for a place to call home with people around my age or just some awesome, friendly folks who I'm able to connect with! Trying to meet more people in Melbourne! I am a very clean and tidy person and clean up after myself wherever I go! I pride myself in keeping the place I call home beautiful and comfy and clean! I like to have my own space as well as to socialise. I'm very reliable when it comes to paying rent and bills and I have previously share-housed with friends and have also lived in my ow unit. My interests/ hobbies include bush walks, adventuring/exploring or some good beach trips (now that I live in Melbourne), healthy goodness food, community, practicing enviro friendly stuff everyday, all that good stuff etc. I'm not a big party person but do enjoy a night out dancing or a drink at home occasionally.

**I'm available to move out ASAP** I'm 25, in my final year studying Nursing and I am a Disability Support Worker. I'm a pretty quiet/laid back person. Always up for a chat over coffee/wine/beer/food. I like having some time to myself but I don't plan to be an invisible housemate. I always clean up after myself, especially in communal areas as I understand what that can get like. I've lived in share housing for the last 2 years. Love a good movie or TV show and listening to music quietly (and I have a small record collection). I cook when I have the time between studying and working. I don't smoke and don't have any pets. I'm looking for housemates who are nice, easy going, not party animals, relatively clean and LGBT+ friendly (and friendly in general). Please send me a message if you have any questions at all!
Chloe

Hey there! I’m a 25 year old from Melbourne looking for a social place to live. Working full-time, I’m laid back, loves a drink or a brunch out with family and friends. I enjoy being out and about on the weekends, going for a drink, to the footy and also enjoys keeping quite active during the week. Love socialising but am very independent and I enjoy my own space. I’m clean, organised and respects people space and privacy. I would love to move in with a few people that are looking for a social place to live :)

Jessica
Looking in: Richmond, Fitzroy, East Melbourne, Collingwood, Abbotsford
I'm Jess, a 30 year-old Aussie working full time, and about to become a Lawyer. I'm very excited to move back to my old stomping ground in the East, with all of the amazing food and coffee, and proximity to the Tan. About me: I'm a friendly creature and enjoy creating a warm and welcoming environment at home, with the occasional shared meal and vino. 😊 Like everyone though, I like my space and am respectful of everyone's down time. I’m tidy and appreciate those who feel that a clean shared space (kitchen, bathroom) gives the place a nice vibe. I'm an avid yogi and runner and completed my sixth half marathon on the Great Ocean road in May. I would be interested to meet with any like-minded, potential roomies.😊

Angie
Looking in: Richmond, Prahran, Collingwood, Abbotsford
I’m Angie ❤️ I’ve lived in the western suburbs for almost my whole life and as a blossoming, creative and empowered young person I feel the need to move out of this area to really kick off the next chapter of my life. My current living situation is at one of my parents houses, although they are working away and I am managing this home on my own. You’re unlikely to have an issue with my level of cleanliness / behaviour around the house as I’m not a party animal, I make little to no waste (so environmentally conscious housemates are a must!), I understand how important it is not to distrupt the flow of someone’s household and if there ever was anything we needed to resolve - I’m a completely open person, great communicator, not the type to run away from my problems and be shy. Seek discomfort! Let’s chat about shit we can improve on. I’m not just looking for for a room, I’m looking for a home with a healthy dynamic, wholesome housemates and great energy. It’s also pretty important to me that small businesses, fruit/veg shops etc are accessible rather than just supermarkets and cafes. Absolutely must be LGBTQ and sex worker friendly, no discriminators of poc/refugeees etc, environmentally conscious. Hope to hear from you soon!

Chris
Looking in: Clifton Hill, Fitzroy North, Fitzroy, Collingwood, Carlton North, Carlton, Abbotsford
I'm quiet but have sociable habits. I'm intelligent, can be chilled and happy to give people their own time and space, or happy to cook for others every now and then (nothing fancy) and enjoy a brunch or dinner together, to go out for a drink or meal. I love friendly, happy dogs, so am happy to consider moving in with someone who has a dog, and will even walk it or dog sit when you go away. I travel a bit with work, and from now onwards this might increase to weekly trips, so you could possibly have the place to yourself 2-3 days per week. As well as a full time job coaching business owners, I'm currently getting a business idea off the ground which means I'll be spending a lot of time with my head in a computer. The ideal flatmate, really!
Jeremy

Hey there! I’m a single, 22yo product designer. Have been working full-time for 3yrs and freelancing for over a year now working out of an office in Collingwood (so won’t be working from home). I'm a frequent traveler for both work and pleasure and always happy to meet new people. Despite my age, I’m not a student and my party days are well behind me… I enjoy a quiet evening with a glass of wine, a board games and some friendly people. I'm pretty easy going and tidy but not obsessive. Looking preferably for a house rather than apartment, but I'm keen to see what's out there. If you've got any questions for me, please don't hold back! :)

I came out to Aus in April from the UK on a working holiday visa. I’ve been living in Hawthorn on a short term contract but i’m intending to stay in Melbourne for the rest of my time here now and will be starting a new job in September. I’m 28 years old and like to socialise on weekends with/without flatmates. During the week though, I’m fairly quiet but maybe enjoy the odd meal out with friends. I also play netball every week and like to catch the odd AFL game on a weekend if I can!

I'm 24. I am originally from Lismore, far north coast NSW. I'm a dual citizen of Australia/Ireland. I've been living in Fitzroy for the last 2.5 years - keen to stay in the area. Disability support and occupational therapy are my life passions. I work as a disability support worker (DSW) for City of Port Phillip, Scope and Independence Australia. As a DSW for City of Port Phillip I provide support in creative activities/community access for people with disabilities. In this work I provide support at Holiday Arts programs, a community disco, St Kilda Veg Out community garden, community kitchen and community theatre. As a DSW for Scope Australia I provide clients support with therapeutic creative activities at a day and lifestyle options centre. As a DSW for Independence Australia I provide in-home personal care for clients living with spinal cord injuries/cerebral palsy. I am also a 4th year occupational therapy student. I play weekly ultimate frisbee. I can attempt to show you how to forehand throw a disc. I love long distance running (half marathons), cycling, rock climbing, mountain biking and trail running. I am an avid traveller, I love backpacking and I've been on a few trips to Nepal and India which both hold a special place in my heart. I love watching footy! One of my favourite things to do in Melbourne is a day trip to St. Andrews markets. I'm clean, easy going and super reliable with rent. I have been living in sharehouses since 18 - and as a result I respect and value shared areas and open communication.
