Collingwood Housemates & Roommates
Benjamin
Looking in: Yarraville, Williamstown, Richmond, Footscray, Fitzroy, Collingwood
Hi Guys! I'm Ben and I am currently on the lookout for a new place to call home. During the week I am too buggered after work (8am - 7pm shifts) to do much but blob out on the sofa watching something on Netflix or Stan, but I do enjoy a couple of drinks on a friday after a hard week to unwind (gin &tonic anybody?). In my spare time I love to garden and you'll often find me either at a nursery pondering whether I have room for yet another pot plant or at the Royal Botanic Garden taking a stroll. Previously lived in a share house with a lovely greek lady and her teenage son so I know what its like being in a busy household! Suitable flatmates would be ones that don't hide in their room all day, likes to have a chat every now and then, but who is also mature enough to know that sometimes you just need your own space! It's important to me that common/shared spaces are kept tidy but as for your own room well that's your private area! I know this is pretty standard stuff to ask for but at the end of the day its important to me that its a homely environment. If there's anything you want to ask me, please fire away! Cheers, Ben

I work full-time on site. I am chirpy and social but I give people the personal space required. I keep my room and my house very clean. I enjoy cooking for people once in a while to make them smile :).

Hey y'all I just check out your place and would love to come check it out.

I also love to go out for a drink or meal or chill it home enjoying a meal together or binge watching Netflix. Im a clean person and will tidy up after myself. I'm respectful of personal space and items but am happy to share things like food etc. ! Ben
Beth
Looking in: Richmond, Collingwood, Parkville, Fitzroy, Carlton, Brunswick
Hi there, I'm Beth. I'm 29, I immigrated from Cape Town about a year ago and have just moved to Melbourne! I'm the creative type, having worked as a graphic designer and makeup artist, I enjoy all things artsy, but I am also keen on social sports and keeping active(ish). I have a love of RuPaul's Drag Race, music and movies of all varieties and of course, dogs. I'm mostly a chatty introvert, but enjoy a good shindig every now and then. I'm tidy and enjoy cleaning far more than I do cooking, God knows why, but I'm relaxed and easy-going about cleanliness. I value my privacy, but very much enjoy watching a movie and hanging out over the weekend. A mutually respectful and zen environment is all I need to live in.
Sarah
Looking in: Clifton Hill, Windsor, Richmond, Northcote, Fitzroy, Collingwood, Abbotsford
My name is Sarah and I'm currently looking for a share house in the inner city area. I am a Account Manager for a publishing company and work pretty standard hours. I've lived in share houses for years so I am house trained and always keep communal areas tidy. I have previously lived in Abbotsford so pretty keen to get back there or to a suburb pretty close. I really love socialising with my friends, boozey lunches and heading out to the pub but also love an occasional lazy Saturday night in. I generally keep reasonably quiet during the week and head to the gym or yoga most nights or catch up with friends or family. I enjoy having a drink and socialising with my housemate but also will be out a fair bit and respect peoples personal space. I'm also flexible with move in dates.

I've just moved down from Cairns for a new job in wholesale travel. Looking for a place that feels like home and to meet some friendly new faces. I love food and wine, adore animals and having a good laugh. Need to get something sorted by 3 June at the latest as I’m going interstate for training on the 4th.
Gemma
Looking in: Thornbury, Northcote, Fitzroy, Fairfield, Collingwood, Carlton, Brunswick, Abbotsford
I'm 30 years old and am looking for a new place Northside, to call home. I am studying Jewellery Design at Melb Polytechnic in Fairfield and work for a Melbourne based chocolate company, with the occasional shift in coffee. I do a bit of yoga and enjoy riding my bicycle. I listen to tragic disco records and am constantly thinking about food. I like a homely house but also my own space, so sometimes housemate hangs are always welcomed especially over a bottle of wine.
Isaiah
Looking in: Melbourne, Richmond, Northcote, Flemington, Fitzroy, Collingwood, Carlton, Brunswick
Hey people - Looking for somewhere to stay close-ish to the CBD, if anyone has a room free please let me know! I am also open to starting a new sharehouse if you're looking for someone to join up About me: I recently moved from Perth - enjoy a bunch of things like cooking, gardening, camping/outdoors, seeing live music, festivals and taking photos. I'm pretty easygoing and respectful to my housemates, always tidy and considerate. I like a good balance between spending time on my own and with housemates and would be up for dinners and drinks together. I don't have a car so won't need a parking space. I'm flexible with move-in date and length of stay, I'll be studying at unimelb for the next two years

Alix
Looking in: South Melbourne, North Melbourne, Northcote, Fitzroy, Collingwood, Carlton North, Carlton, Brunswick
I am a 29 year old social worker, originally from the UK. I love living in a big houseshare, and I have lived in lots of house shares. I am pretty clean and tidy, not over the top but I do have sporadic deep cleans of shared spaces which people I live with have always been very pleased about! I am a social human and enjoy going to gigs, having meals together, going out for drinks, walks, bike rides etc. Like all other people I also enjoy some alone time and respect other people's space when they want alone time to! I understand what a closed door means :p I am also queer so would like any house i live in to be queer friendly!

Annabelle
Looking in: Parkville, Fitzroy North, Collingwood, North Melbourne, Maribyrnong, Brunswick, Ascot Vale, Kensington, Flemington, Fitzroy
I’m a 23 year old beachy girl who’s recently moved to the city. I’m working full time Monday to Friday and aim to spend my time off exploring this insane city or spending time working on things that benefit my life in some way, sometimes that’s just gotta be down time. I like to believe that I’m very open minded and a very positive person. My perfect house would be described I guess as a tidy but not uptight environment.

Hi there, my name is Danni and I'm a 27 year old, full time bartender. As such I work mostly nights so that would need to not be an issue for you! I've been in mostly share houses since the age of 18 so I'm well versed in sharing spaces with others, I'm friendly, outgoing, clean and respectful. In my downtime I usually keep to myself and read or have Netflix binges but I don't mind a good chat and a drink with housemates either. If I sound like a good fit for your place, hit me up. x P.S - Bonus points if your house has pets of any sort, happy to contribute all the pats.

Hey, future bestie! I'm an international student at the University of Melbourne, with major in Construction Management. Pure Armenian raised in Russia. Have lots of cultural backgrounds to share! Passionate about languages, now speaking English, Armenian, Russian and currently learning Spanish. My life goal is to speak 10 different ones. I consider myself as mature, hard-working person. Always clean up everything after myself and respect others. I believe that my freeness end where another persons begin. I am easy going and positive, with high hygiene standard. I love European food, exceptionally crazy about Italian... mmm... lip-smacking! Recently fell in love with the Indian and Chinese kitchen as well. Also, I could sell my soul for a good apple cider or vine, not an alcoholic though:) Oh, btw, I have an awesome red motorbike, so grab a helmet and hop on the bike for a windy race! If you've read till this point and think that we share common values and interests, I would be happy to share living space with you! I'm looking for a place for at least 6 months or more (1 year or more). Feel free to drop a message!
Kapil
Looking in: Fitzroy North, Fitzroy, Collingwood, Carlton
32 year old doctor moving to Melbourne from Brisbane where I've been stuck the last 10 years. Originally from South Africa. In my spare time I enjoy collecting vinyl records, eating at whatever new restaurant that pops up and finding exciting little cafes and bars to relax in. Looking for open-minded, clean and respectful housemates who like to be social. Have spent most of the last 10 years in Brisbane in various flatshares. I don't mind a beer after work and am pretty open to sharing the occasional meal (as long as you don't mind veggies).

Update: I found a place, come live with me I'm a young guy working full time as a web developer in Fitzroy, looking for a fun inner city place with some cool housemates. I'm generally pretty laid back, and not much bothers me. I just want to live with fun people I can have a laugh with. I'm perfectly happy either chilling in my room for days on end or hanging out with people and being social. I'm super considerate, the worst thing I can think of happening is that my actions will negatively impact someone, so I'll generally do my best to make sure everyone is having a good time. I have two adorable 6 month old cats, Audrey and Wally, who are super loving and really clean. I'm vegan, but again I'm pretty laid back. As long as you're cool and respect my lifestyle I can roll with the punches. I'm also a musician, playing guitar, bass and keyboard, but aside from singing in the shower I play with headphones so you wont have to worry about any loud 3am jams. Being a computer nerd, I come with my own supder high speed unlimited internet connection, and am happy to be the house IT department. I also come with a good fridge, a Nutribullet, basic kitchen supplies and one of those cube shelving/TV units from Ikea.
