Hi!, I’m easygoing but clean, tidy and responsible. I’m originally from Ireland and have been here for 10 years now. I work in East Maitland and am studying to be a dietitian at UON. I have a dog called Dougal who is very entertaining! During the day I work and study and we usually like to go walking in the evenings. I also sometimes like Yoga and capoeira for fun.

I am a construction diver who leaves for work early and retires early. I don't drink or smoke...will quietly play guitar and video games and prepare quite spartan meals.
Dustin
Looking in: Merewether, Lambton, Islington, Hamilton
Hi! My name's Dustin, I'm a pretty 'go with the flow' type of guy. I love to cook, but I assure you I always clean up after myself. I'm currently doing my cert III in Design Fundamentals at TAFE, so I'm out busy doing things Wednesday to Friday. I'm a pretty artsy dude, I love to draw and I can be found at my laptop 80% of the time playing around with photoshop or doing assignments. I'm currently hunting for a job to fill in more of my time, I like to be busy. I also absolutely adore animals, so if you have pets that's a massive bonus haha.

I am a 27 y/o creative designer that is looking to move back to Newcastle after 8+ years living in Sydney and Sweden. I love music, design, travelling, camping, Star Wars (hello there), video-games and keeping fit/healthy. I am extremely tidy, respectful and environmental. I am a little shy upon first meeting, but I come out of my shell in no time. I like to feel comfortable in my space - I will be walking around in comfort clothes or hardly any. I am a social creature and will definitely participate in house dinners and drinks. I like to be social on weekends and would like to host friends over for wine and such. I have a cat named Mishka who is indoor/outdoor and will be your next best furriend. She is house trained, loves people and will sleep on your lap if you're sitting long enough. My ideal housemates would be super cool, cultured, love a drink, going to gigs and social events, good music, are clean, sustainable and have an interest in recycling/minimising waste. I am interested in starting a share house. Move in date is flexible (looking for work before moving up) & length of stay but prefer 6+ months
Emmalee
Looking in: Tighes Hill, Mayfield, Adamstown, The Junction, Merewether, Maryville, Islington, Hamilton, Cooks Hill, Carrington, Bar Beach
Hi I'm Emma, a PhD student studying infertility I also have a friendly white indoor cat called O'Malley. I spend most of my time at uni (I'm there 8:30-5 usually), or at the beach. I also love to stay at home with a good movie cuddling O'Malley. We've lived in sharehouses for the last 3 years and he's so sociable with people and other cats. I'm a tidy person, and I'm pretty sociable. I love cycling, good coffee and brunch. I'm looking for a room with a wardrobe for all my stylish clothing, with friendly, tidy housemates. I make excellent muffins!
Shannon
Looking in: Wickham, Newcastle West, Islington, Hamilton, Broadmeadow
I'm an open minded, fairly non judgemental fashion student, working for myself looking for somewhere closer to the Newcastle Tafe campus and major transport hubs. Currently interning in Sydney so often commuting. I've lived in share houses before, I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty and will respect your space and time. I'm working on continually improving myself, used to go to law school, sometimes prioritise abs over alcohol, like to think I'm poly-lingual and a pretty decent addition to any trivia team. If you have any more questions, don't be afraid to ask :) also can come with fridge and front loader
Charlotte
Looking in: New Lambton, Islington, Mayfield, Hamilton, Georgetown, Broadmeadow
My name is Charlotte (27 yrs), I am moving to Newcastle, Australia from Goa, India to complete my PhD in immunology at Hunter Medical research centre. I ain't-a fussy roommate, love giving space and a stickler for house rules if there are any. Love the beach and a self-proclaimed great chef and I am very into sports. Allergic to dairy products especially albumin (eggs), pet dander (cats and dogs unfortunately although I do love them, I am not a monster!). I can blend in like a chameleon (haha! my spirit animal :)). I am also a lil bit of a geek- big anime fan as well as marvel and DC😬. I will be moving to Newcastle in the month of November!!

Brydie

Neat, respectful and easy going. Happy to keep to myself and/or be social with others. I enjoy cooking and don’t mind doing the dishes! I am relatively quiet and enjoy my own company, so there’s no risk of any wild parties or anything of the sort happening. I do however like to chat to people and love having good people that I get along with around me if having me be a bit more of a social butterfly is preferred. I’m pretty chilled either way :) I do smoke, but no more than maybe five or less in any one day and would always do so outside in a well ventilated area, I also have a good habit of disposing of cigarette butts appropriately and promptly once finished. I am currently, and have been for the last seven years, working as an AIN, and often am working on a rotating roster, so shift work is inevitable. I am happy to move out of where I am now and into a new place ASAP! :) look forward to hopefully meeting nice people and living in a comfortable, relaxed and cosy feeling home Kindest regards, B.
Lily
Looking in: Wickham, Newcastle, Merewether, Islington, Carrington, Bar Beach
Hello. I'm currently a student at UON studying environmental science. I'm super passionate about conservation and interested in all of the important things including plants, fungi and lichen haha. I work for trees in Newcastle and at a function centre and when i get a chance i'm straight into the bush for an adventure. I'm quite the fermenter so if you like kombucha or kimchi you will like living with me. I'd love to live in a peaceful space filled with good vibes, colourful decorations and smiles.

I'm a super easy-going and friendly individual! I am easy to live with, pay rent on time and am super clean. Desperately trying to find something as I'm moving to Newcastle sometime in November and looking for something until February. I have a small cat who is trained, toilet trained and lazy - she's very docile and sweet and is content to stay in my room.

Hi! I am Lisa-Marie, a 22-years old Dutch graduate student in the field of pharmacy. I am looking for a nice place to stay in Newcastle, as I will perform my MSc research project at UON. I would really appreciate a clean house with chill flatmates to come home to at the end of a hectic day, but most importantly I would love roommates who are open for a nice chat and a glass tea / wine. Ofc with respect for eachothers privacy ;) little bit about me: when I am free I love to meet new people / hang out with them, explore new restaurants / bars, go to the beach, bake, dance or do yoga.

April

G,day. April here. Im residing back to Newy ( Novocastrian born and bred), to study Bachelor of Nursing and working part time to and from Syd in the Fashion industry. Terrible at 'selling' myself in bio's, so ill simplify it with dot points. * Well accustom to housemate etiquette * Always up for the following- outing activity ( live gigs, beach, bush walking/running), A Netflix or movie binge, Cooking up a barbie or a feast for family and friends,atc. * I can vacuum til the cows come home if i have the right soundtrack. Includes all matters of cleaning actually. * I own a set of wheels, so car pooling/ lifts/ late night early morning pick ups/ roads trips are A-ok!. Looking for a place with in roughly 15km radius of Newcastle city. Reasonable size room and built in wardrobe would be great! unfurnished is a-ok , though if it has a bed already thats a plus. Dont get the chance to go out alot but enjoy live music when opportunity arises. Dont have any special diets or restrictions. Pets are a huge perk. Looking for a pad that has easy going, just legendary chums and people. Cheers
