About this person
Hello!
I’m looking to rent a room in a chill, creative household somewhere in Castlemaine or it's surrounds.
I’m a violin teacher—quiet and respectful by nature. I don’t need to practice at home, though a few students do visit me from time to time. Totally open to chatting about that—if you'd prefer I travel to them, that’s no problem.
Day-to-day I’m pretty low-key, but I enjoy a good chat and a shared cuppa when the moment’s right. I’ve recently returned to Melbourne after several years in the UK and am rebuilding my student base and musical life here, so I’m often out teaching or gigging.
I’m hoping to find a place with kind, like-minded people—naturally considerate types who are open to the occasional check-in over tea if anything ever comes up. Just looking for a relaxed, mutually respectful home where we can all be ourselves.

Compatible people
- I’m respectful of personal space and pretty good at reading the room—if someone’s in a quiet mood, I naturally adapt to that.
- I like having routines around chores—things like putting the bins out, keeping the kitchen clean, and generally staying on top of the shared space.
- I’m disciplined when it comes to noise. I’m always aware of when people are sleeping or resting and make a point not to disturb the peace.
- I’m friendly and easy to talk to—always up for a thoughtful chat or a bit of banter when the vibe’s right.

Food sharing and furniture
I don’t have much furniture beyond what’s in my room, so I’ll fit easily into most setups.
When it comes to food sharing—I'm pretty self-contained, but I do like to make myself a proper espresso using my Italian stovetop maker. It’s taken some time, but I’ve finally mastered it, and the result is genuinely café quality. There’s always a bit too much, so anyone nearby is welcome to share a cup.
I also like to do a pizza night every now and then—usually something simple and vegetarian with a tomato and basil base. If anyone’s keen to join, that can be a fun, low-key thing to do.
