About this person
Hello! My name is Michaela and I'm a 26 year old exchange student who will be attending UNSW from August to December. I like to think I'm pretty easygoing and clean. I definitely prefer staying in over going out, but would love to have some fun adventures while I'm in Australia. It'd be nice to meet someone who could be a friend and a guide during my stay! I have a cat, but she unfortunately will not be joining me and instead will spend a few months getting spoiled by her grandparents. I'm also an avid reader and will never turn down the chance to talk books with anyone!
I am an avid animal lover too. I work at a dog kennel and have grown up with pups of my own. I live life constantly covered in dog and cat hair, so I have absolutely no problem living with a pet (in fact I prefer it!).
Important personal qualities
Mutual respect and clear communication for sure. Nobody is perfect, but I think it's incredibly valuable to be able to have an open dialogue if something starts to bother you. In my experience it makes it much easier to find a solution that both parties are happy with. I like my privacy, but also am prone to self isolating, so it's important to me to live with someone who also appreciates a nice balance between community and alone time. As far as mutual respect goes, I appreciate people who clean up the messes they are responsible for, and don't have an issue with sharing any group responsibilities.
Food sharing and furniture
I am great at cooking if I'm following a recipe. Without that, I'm a lost cause. I do have some sensory issues with food but they can be a little random and unpredictable. I'd like to say I'm open to eating most things, but sometimes a hard limit will sneak up on me.
As I'll be travelling from the US, I won't have any furniture to contribute, and I'm hoping to find a place that is furnished.
