About this person
Professional Gardener & Guitarist | Minimalist & Clean
I’m a self-employed gardener and guitar teacher building my own business. I value a high-standard, clutter-free home environment. I’m currently transitioning from a long-term property, so I’m strictly minimalist—I don’t keep "stuff" unless it’s functional or valuable.

The Lifestyle:

Cleanliness: Neat, health-conscious, and a daily cook. I prefer a shared kitchen that stays tidy.

Social: I value the "old school" style of flatting—sharing a meal or a movie sometimes, rather than just being strangers stuck on our games constantly.

Gardening: I’m a Permaculture enthusiast. I’m happy to manage the property’s greenspace to ensure it’s productive, fire-safe, and aesthetically sharp.

Music: I’m a professional musician. I practice regularly but am respectful of noise hours and house boundaries.
Compatible people
I am looking for a functional, mature household with a structured routine. I value a home that feels like a shared space rather than a collection of strangers.

What I’m looking for:

Standard Routines: I prefer living with people who keep "normal" daytime hours. I’m not a fit for night-shift workers or those working from home during late-night hours.

Shared Kitchen Standards: I maintain a clean, high-functioning kitchen. I’m a healthy, low-carb cook and open to a "one cooks, one cleans" arrangement with like-minded people.

Ecological Mindset: I value living with people who appreciate resource efficiency. I aim to grow what we’d otherwise buy at the supermarket and appreciate flatmates who value a productive garden.

Acoustic Respect: As a musician, I’m highly disciplined with volume and ensure my sound stays within my personal space. I expect the same level of awareness and open communication regarding noise in return.

House Rules & Boundaries:

Clean Air Home: I maintain a strictly smoke-free environment.

Stability: I value a stable, reliable household. I have zero tolerance for substance-related instability or lifestyles that compromise the cleanliness and safety of the home.
Food sharing and furniture
Kitchen & Nutrition
I maintain a Ketogenic/low-carb lifestyle and value a high-functioning, efficient kitchen. I like to avoid the "bottleneck" of five people cooking individual meals one after the other, but such an arrangement can always be flexible of course.

How I like to operate:

Shared Efficiency: I’m a fan of shared grocery expenses and communal cooking where it makes sense. I’m happy to cook for the house or take on the cleanup for those who cook for me.

System-Oriented: I prefer a "clean-as-you-go" approach to keep the space ready for the next person.

Dietary Focus: While I’m often strict with Keto, I’m happy to co-exist with any diet as long as the kitchen remains a clean, shared resource.
Description of pets
My cat Smithers is a very quiet and friendly cat. He easily grows to understand boundaries in a house hold, and only meows one or twice, quietly when he wants food, or to be let in, He's house trained, but is also capable of taking his business outside. He can be friendly with other animals in time.
