About the occupants
Hi I am Elena from Italy but also Australian citizen. I am living with my 17 years old son. He is in grade 11 and he spend a lot time in his room and you can rarely ear him. I am studying and working. In the house there are very good vibes and I would like to keep it in that way.
Compatible people
I am a very emphatic and deep person, I do yoga and I am a Shiatsu Therapist and a Dance Therapist, I am studying Mental Health. I teach Italian. I studied French at school. I have a degree in Italian literature and history and critic of Art. I studied theatre and literature. My dissertation has been on Italian Cinema between 1930 and 1940. I have a lot interests and hobbies I can talk almost about everything because I think even what is not in my first interest maybe in the right moment could be worth be explored. I like to cook and do gardening. I can sew something. I like to fix and adjust things. I like to listening any kind of music (just few exceptions).

Everything can find a solution, the important thing is speak clearly and be open and respectful. I work from home and clients come for treatments so for me keep the house cozy and clean is important. I am quite open minded and flexible but for me common sense always comes first. I am quite creative person so solutions and different way to adjust come easily. In the house everything is quite well organized and set up but I understand people are different and maybe need different arrangements. I am happy to talk about it. I am quite sociable person but I have really clear the concept of personal boundaries (I worked in social field and I am studying Psychology as I said).

I would like have a good relationship with the new housemate and live with someone who looking for a home rather than just renting a room. I am looking for someone mature (that not always comes with the age). For me doesn't count age, race, sexual orientation, religion for me really it depends on the person. Important thing for me are honesty, sincerity and reliability. I would prefer someone who is clean and loves tidy place.
Description of pets
Gatto is a tabby neutered cat that enjoy stay in the house and sometimes in the garden. He sleeps most of the time. I love him very much but it is not allowed to stay on tables or kitchen counter and generally he even try to go there. At the first he could be a little shy and scared but he never scratch or bite at least he runs away. He has good and gentle nature. He is in his middle age and the worst he does he scratch sofa and armchair.
