About this person
Hi there! I'm David π
Professional Safety Coach & Consultant | 47 | Clean, Quiet, Reliable
Looking for a comfortable room in Perth where I can unwind between work travels. I'm a professional safety coach and consultant who spends a fair bit of time working away β sometimes 2+ months at a stretch β which means you'll often have the place more to yourself than not!
A bit about me:
I'm at that sweet spot in life where I've outgrown the party scene (thank goodness!) and genuinely appreciate a clean, calm, and quiet living environment. Think of me as the housemate who remembers to take the bins out, doesn't leave dishes in the sink, and actually enjoys a good Netflix binge over a house party.
What I'm bringing to the table:
Minimal belongings β most of my stuff is in storage, so I won't be cluttering up common areas
Frequent traveler β you'll get plenty of space when I'm away for work
Mature and responsible β I've been around the block enough to know how to be a considerate housemate
Professional references available
My small companions:
I do have two very low-maintenance pets that I'd love to bring along:
A small fish tank (quiet, no smell, just peaceful bubbling)
Barry, my Stimson python β Australia's smallest non-venomous snake who lives full-time in his secure vivarium. He's honestly adorable and about as exciting as watching paint dry (which is perfect for a Python!). Happy to provide more details and arrange a meet-and-greet if you're curious.
What I'm looking for:
A peaceful space where I can recharge between work trips. I value cleanliness, respect for shared spaces, and the kind of household harmony that comes from adults who communicate well and look out for each other.
Available immediately and happy to provide references, police check, and answer any questions you might have!
P.S. - Barry says hi, but he's not much of a conversationalist. The fish are even quieter.

Important personal qualities
Having lived through my fair share of sharehouses over the years, I've learned that the best flatmates share a few key qualities that make living together genuinely enjoyable rather than just tolerable.
Mutual respect and consideration top my list. This means being mindful of noise levels (especially since I value that quiet environment for recharging between work trips), keeping shared spaces clean, and just generally thinking about how your actions affect others. I've outgrown the days of passive-aggressive notes on the fridge β I much prefer housemates who can have a friendly chat if something needs addressing.
Reliability and trustworthiness are huge for me, especially since I'm away for work so frequently. I need to know I can trust my housemates to keep an eye on things while I'm gone, and they need to know they can count on me to handle my responsibilities when I'm home.
A sense of humor and easy-going nature make all the difference. Life's too short to walk on eggshells in your own home. I appreciate people who can laugh at life's little mishaps and don't stress about every small thing β like the occasional python shed or the gentle hum of my fish tank filter.
Similar lifestyle preferences help create harmony. I'm looking for people who, like me, appreciate a calm, clean environment where everyone can relax and do their own thing without drama.
Basically, I'm after housemates who treat shared living like the adults we are β with respect, communication, and maybe the occasional shared laugh over a cup of coffee. The kind of people who'd be genuinely curious about Barry rather than immediately freaked out!

Food sharing and furniture
I'm completely self-sufficient when it comes to food and prefer to arrange my own meals. Having spent years working away and living in various accommodations, I've become pretty organized about my own grocery shopping and meal prep. This works out well since I'm often away for extended periods anyway β you won't have to worry about my milk going off in the fridge while I'm on a 2-month work stint!
I'm not vegetarian or vegan β I'm an omnivore who's pretty easy-going about food. I keep to myself in the kitchen, clean up after cooking, and won't be raiding anyone else's leftovers or expecting others to cater to any special dietary requirements.
As for furniture, I'm traveling pretty light these days. Most of my belongings are in storage since I'm away so much for work, so I won't be bringing any living room furniture with me. This actually works out well for established households β I won't be trying to squeeze my oversized couch into an already furnished lounge room or clashing with anyone's decor style.
What I will have is my bedroom essentials, my small fish tank, Barry's vivarium, and the basics I need to be comfortable. Think of me as the low-impact housemate who adds to the household without taking over the common areas.
This setup has worked really well in my previous share situations β I get the space I need without disrupting the existing household dynamic, and my housemates appreciate having someone who's genuinely independent and undemanding.
