About this person
I'm after a friendly, communicative share house situation.
Looking for either a room in an existing house, or like-minded people who are interested in co-creating one.

I'd like to live with other humans and their pets (if the house allows). I currently have no pets as I like to travel, but I love animals and cohabiting with them. Gender and age are of no bearing if the rest aligns, however I'm a female in my forties. LGBTQI+ friendly.

Some things about how I live and what I value:
- Clean, tidy, relatively uncluttery but not stressy about it
- Care about my home and garden
- Grow food when the space allows, separate rubbish, buy secondhand
- Into living sustainably, conscious energy/water use
- Respect others needs for rest and sleep
- Conscientious about illnesses, proactive about keeping each other healthy and safe
- House energy typically peaceful
- Pro-active, open communication

Where (my thoughts but flexi!):
- Melbourne inner north, house over apartment
- Near to public transport
Important personal qualities
- Capable at home maintenance (unblocking drains, leaky toilet cisterns, broken dishwasher doors, broken shower screen rollers are some recent examples)
- Being good at (or striving to be good at) respectful and open communication, negotiation and compromise
- Respectful of communal spaces (keeping my clutter to my room and leaving spaces clean and tidy)
Food sharing and furniture
Furniture:
I like combining furniture in a share house so that everyone feels like it's their home.
I have living and dining room furniture, currently in storage but would love to get them out some day!
I also have a large silver Fisher & Paykel fridge, but no other white goods.
Happy to collaborate on what works best depending on the house and other occupants.

Food:
I like to predominantly manage my own food as far as shopping and supplies.
That said, I love cooking for and with others on a regular basis. Firm believer that eating together when people are around is a lovely thing to do.
