My main goal is to live life in harmony, seek consciousness and to promote kindness, love stoic philosophy and seek to live by their virtues. Inspired by ayurvedic way of living, my weekly food mostly comes from the backyard/earth (fruit and vegetables). Mostly vegetarian, however, not into packaged food. I cook on the nights Andrea is in Mon & Tue. For my vocation, work full-time as Project Crusader supporting others in delivering success. As a knowedge seeking last year I did attempt a career change to study full time for 6mths Cert IV - Mental Health, I have since realised the overall system of care and perspective in mental health doesn't align with my personal beliefs. My usual weekend routine includes a sauna/steam room hang down at Prahran pool and market, then relaxing at home vinyl playing.
Other homie is Teinaki is a Kiwi (frm NZ) 28yo and works in IT. He enjoys life pursuing his political interest which often includes protesting against Pauline Hanson.
Socially, we catch up for a meal at least once a week. Over winter we have been exploring Sunday Roast experiences.
The best home vibes are those based on general social intelligence, including having time to converse beyond talking about the weather. Equally important, is open communication and living with humans who can contribute to living at a common agreed standard.
I would prefer to share the home with like-minded humans who are conscious consumers for the sake of the planet, their health and humanity. Pain points for me include over packaged goods, plastic packaging, chemical toxic cleaning stuff and CAGED eggs.
We live a chilled life full of harmony, no bad vibes, open and frank discussions and peaceful evenings, some good tunes on the weekend. I love listening to community radio PBS or RRR, when there is screen time TV, my preference is to watch doco’s or something that is going to help me understand the world or myself better SBSondemand, ABCiview.
