$180/week•30 year old female
Hey! Need a new housemate? I'm a 31yo musician & vocal coach. Financially responsible, friendly, playful, very clean & considerate, and consider good communication a priority.
Looking for a friendly home, not just a place to sleep.
I'm looking for something from March onwards... ready to commit to 6-12 months.
Hoping for an existing sharehouse but also open to teaming up to start a new place.
I generally go by my surname, call me Tilley! (she/her)
I’m originally from here, I moved back after 5.5yrs in Melbourne in early July 2020 (escaping COVID).
The house I'm looking for will have:
- Somewhere off street for me to secure my small motorbike (this can be shed or just a side path or backyard).
- If the room included a wardrobe / shelves / desk that’d be helpful, but not essential.
I just need enough space for a bed, some storage, some rolling-on-the-floor space, and maybe a desk.
I work as a vocal coach, currently renting an office in the CBD.
Hoping to live with at least 2 others, who are not all male.
Hoping to be less than 10min walk away from regular buses (and/or walking distance to town)
Keen to continue living without much TV, (Netflix is ok, just not heaps of commercial TV/sports/TV on just as background noise)
We are hopefully all:
- Clean, communicative, kind, collaborative, caring, compassionate.
- Environmentally and energy usage conscious (tending to put some layers on first), but also not stingy, ok with putting on the heating when it’s cold.
- Careful with security (diligent with locking doors & windows when leaving).
- Not big drinkers or heavy partiers.
- Not working nights and needing to sleep all day (as I will often be making/playing music... but not incessantly.)
I do love a social house with friends coming over now and then for activities, dinners & movie nights, but not a "party house" (occasional parties are fine! Just not people over getting smashed every weekend.) My home is my sanctuary and I love my alone time and downtime but also, being connected to others is what makes me feel alive. I've been told I'm an "ambivert" lol and I get along with introverts and extroverts alike just fine.
More about me:
- Queer, left-leaning politics, intersectional feminism, currently learning about what it means to be antiracist. Friendly, silly/a total dork, love art/music, real-life philosophy & learning about people & psychology.
- I'm often singing or listening to music but happy to be asked to be quiet when needed.
- Usual hours: in bed by 11ish and up around 8am.
- Been renting since age 17, never had bond withheld, never had issues paying rent or bills. Very clean and tidy.
- I do eat meat, although I am keen to learn more vego recipes/work towards being vego at home. Don't care what you eat, just don't cook fish in the microwave plz (ew).
- I’m happy to help out in the garden (limited experience / knowledge but can follow instructions!) and with watering houseplants (v sad I had to leave my green babies back in Melbs).
Bonus points if the home has a piano, fire, and/or a bath!
Bonus points for any creative types!
If you’d describe yourself as a “balanced” person, who doesn’t over-identify with anything and has varied interests, this might be a good match.
Final note: Sadly incense, sage, palo santo, scented candles, scent oil sticks etc all make me quite ill, so you’d need to be ok with not using these.
If this sounds like a good match, let me know when I can check out the place and meet everyone!
Cheers :)
