Coburg Housemates & Roommates
Marlène Habib
Looking in: Fitzroy North, Fairfield, Northcote, Fitzroy, Coburg, Brunswick West, Brunswick East, Brunswick
34 years old and work as a freelance photographer and an arts therapist. At the moment, I work from home about 3 days a week (editing and planning) and 2-3 days out on location. I'm into sharing meals, wine, heart to heart chats and all that good stuff to get to know the people I'm living with. I value people and open communication. I would like to live in a multi cultural home or with open minded people that are open to cultural differences, after all diversity is the spice of life. I'm interested in permaculture, but yet to gain the skills, willing to put the hours into the garden to get my thumbs green. I'm quirky and creative. I enjoy gatherings and being social and every now and again I'll go off on a silent retreat when I need a little zen time and clarity. I love all kinds of music from around the world. Other loves... nature, dancing (african and latin), yoga (I gotta get back on that bike ;) ), travel, movies, documentaries, food, talks that scratch the surface, acting like a kitty cat and putting on random accents. If I sound like your hommie to be, feel free to contact me :) Also, I'm looking to move by late August, but if I find a suitable place, I can move sooner. I live in the South side but much prefer the creative and diverse flow of the North folk. Marlène (aka Marz)

Rune & April
Looking in: Moonee Ponds, Parkville, Coburg, Flemington, Brunswick West, South Yarra, Brunswick East, Brunswick, Ascot Vale, North Melbourne
We are two easy going people, who care about humans and are compassionate and respectful. We love going for walks and enjoying the nature. We like to get together with others and share a good meal and chat, possibly with a little wine/beer and a board game. We've both rented for the last 5 years, so we are reliable with our pay and tidy up after ourselves. We understand others need for downtime, as we need it too. If we catch your interest, write a message and we can chat over Skype. (Required since we currently live in Denmark) Cheers, Rune & April.

Looking in: Preston, Coburg North, Kingsbury, Pascoe Vale South, Coburg, Thornbury, Watsonia, Bundoora, Pascoe Vale, Reservoir
My name is Mitchell and I am starting my honours at La Trobe semester 2. I enjoy cooking, live music, hiking and camping (a glass of wine or a cold one at night is not a bad thing either). Looking for some relaxed, fun housemates to move in with.
Victoria & Brendon
Looking in: Northcote, East Melbourne, Fitzroy, Coburg, Richmond, Brunswick East, Brunswick, Collingwood
Hello! We moved to Melbourne this week along with a cute wee cat! :) I am a Social Media Manager and Brendon is a Music Tutor. We are relaxed, tidy, and creative. We enjoy good movies, playing boardgames and are very excited to explore and enjoy living in Melbourne.
Holly & Jesse
Looking in: Carlton, East Melbourne, Carlton North, Fitzroy, North Melbourne, West Melbourne, Fitzroy North, Abbotsford, Coburg, Seddon, Clifton Hill, Northcote, Footscray, Yarraville
G'day, we are Holly and Jesse, and we're looking for a new fabulous place to call home. Holly is a singer/songwriter, youth engagement worker and bartender, and volunteers at Triple R. Jesse is a gardener who works labouring for the City of Whitehorse and also writes fiction and spends a large chunk of time working on his writing. Jesse is American, Holly is Australian, Holly is a vegetarian, Jesse isn't. We both love pubs, beer, books, cooking, walks, talking, seeing shows and sitting in parks. We are both genuinely happy, positive people who thrive on meeting and getting to know new legends, and although we both love going out, we both want home to be a sanctuary and definitely not just a crash pad. We're currently in a pretty unique situation - we've been between renting temporarily with friends and long-term Airbnb stays, although we both have stable, steady work. Holly also regularly travels outside of Melbourne on tour. Jesse's current visa is up just before Christmas, so we're planning to leg it back to California at that time. It would be so lovely to find the perfect home in Melbourne for the next 5 months. Looking forward to meeting some great people here!
Rosa & Oliver
Looking in: Footscray, Thornbury, Brunswick West, Flemington, Northcote, Alphington, Kensington, Coburg, Prahran, South Yarra, Windsor, Middle Park, Richmond, Fitzroy North, Fitzroy, Abbotsford, Carlton, Brunswick, Brunswick East, Collingwood
Hi! We're a couple who are new to Melbourne. We're hoping to find a room to share for 2-3 months while we get settled. I'm studying winemaking while also working in wine retail. Oliver is studying software engineering and is a bartender at a music venue. We've both lived in share houses for 9-10 years so we're very well house-trained. We're clean, tidy and never have any trouble paying bills on time. We're equally happy to hang out with housemates or do our own thing. We're not party animals - we're much more into enjoying good food and wine than getting rowdy. I have a lot of diverse interests - cooking, sport (especially cricket), cinema (especially foreign and independent films), music, camping and hiking, history, learning new languages, etc. I'm a bit of a trivia buff and will never say no to a pub trivia night. I'm also very open to meeting new people and trying new things. Oliver's into sports (particularly cricket and AFL), fitness, music, web dev and puppies.

Looking in: Pascoe Vale, Coburg, Niddrie, Airport West
******************UPDATE: I found a place to move into and am secring the room with a Deposit. Thanks for your interest***************************************************************** I am an easy going working professional employed as a school counselor. I have lived in many share houses in the past. On my time off I like catching up with friends for a meal or a movie, the beach (in summer!) and bush walking. I would prefer a place that is fairly quite at night/bedtime on work nights as I value my sleep. I'm up for the occasional shared meal and home movie and generally just having a bit of a chat when crossing paths in the communal areas.

I'm very reliable, open minded and most important clean up after myself. I work well living with others, keen to get to know new people to create an awesome chill creative home vibe.

WE ARE ONLY AFTER WHOLE UNITS, NO SHARED FLAT. We have been living in Melbourne for the last year. At the moment I work part time and I am an RMIT Masters student. We plan to stay until the end of the year and probably extend if possible. We are extremely clean and quiet, this is the reason why we are looking for our own place.
Emily

Hey, I'm looking for a long term room in any of the inner suburbs, preferably within 45 mins cycling time of carlton. I work part time and spend the remainder of my time reading, tryna learn piano and going on outings with friends. Have lived in share houses before and am tidy + reliable with cleaning up and paying rent/bills. I'm always up for the odd cook up/cheap wine when I'm around but respectful of others' space/time. I'll need a place with parking available (street is fine). If you think you've got something in my budget - max $650 p/m - shoot me a message :) Emily

Jimmy
Looking in: Fitzroy, South Melbourne, Coburg, Richmond, Brunswick
Hi! I am Jimmy, from Spain. I have been traveling for the past 4 years, working for an Australian travelling company (Contiki) and exploring every continent by myself, but now it's time to move to Australia! I am here to study (audio engineering), but I have to work too to be able to comfortably support myself. The diploma is 7 months, so that would be my minimum stay, but I might stay a couple of months more.. it depends! I love music, I love people and I love outdoor activities. I am active, positive, super easy going, honest, real. I am almost native in english so no communication problems. I am responsible and old enough (29 years old) to know what respect and social behaviour is, and I expect the same in return. I am looking for modern, fully furnished accomodation, with not more than 2-3 people to share the flat with, not far from public transport and with aircon/heater in the rooms! If you would like to know anything else about me, don't bother asking!

I am from England, here on a working holiday visa but looking to extend for as long as possible. I am a pretty easy going person. I'd like to say I'm funny but again, British haha. I am a pastry chef so take my stresses out at work on bread dough. I am into sports, any really. I am sociable but don't don't go partying till the small hours anymore. I like to go to festivals and concerts whenever the bank balance allows and just exploring. I am quite into health and nutrition and try and get to the gym as much as I can be bothered haha.

Hi, my name is Nuno, I’m currently living in Melbourne for studying and I’m also a full time worker. I'm 38yo photographer, easy going and a relaxed person, tidy and organized. I like to meet new people and different cultures, listen to music and play it as well, watch a good movie and I love to cook and have nice dinner with friends, sharing experiences and have a good chat while drink some beers or enjoy a good wine, relax and have a good time whenever it´s possible. I like to have fun and I love action sports, which is my main work (as a photographer). Love the beach and the great outdoors and anything related, camping, trekking, 4wd off road trips, mountain biking, travel and explore are my main hobbies. I also love gardening (also do it as a side job) and I'm ok with pets if it matters, love wildlife, animals and don't mind to share a sofa with a dog or a cat.

Hey there, I just moved to Melbourne from Austria and I am looking for a place to call home for a while. I will be starting my PhD studies at RMIT in August, which means I am working full time and have a steady income. I am a quiet person in general who looks after himself and keeps things things tidy and clean. However, I do enjoy chats and get-togethers for meals or whatever. I respect the privacy of others if they want to keep to themselves. However, I would like to call people I live with day-in and day-out friends at some point and not just strangers you live with. Since I am still new to Melbourne, I like to explore the city and surroundings if time permits. Other activities I enjoy are watching some TV shows or the occasional movie. Although I've only listed a few suburbs it doesn't really matter to me where exactly I'll be settling down as long as CBD can be reached within reasonable time. Also the length of 6 months is more or less irrelevant. If it feels right I am open to stay for longer. If you feel like I would fit in with your current household, I'd be happy to receive a message from you. Cheers.

20 y/o Swedish undergraduate studying at La Trobe University. Always down for a bit of banter when I'm not working on my assignments. I love sports and try to maintain a healthy lifestyle but I also love baking so honestly that's a struggle. But hey, that means freshly baked goodies for potential roomies! I like to keep things neat and tidy but I'm not obsessive about it. During the week I usually keep somewhat anonymous because of my studies, but don't mind a nice lil' get-together here and there.
