Details
The bedroom is a really decent size. I used to live in it with my queen bed and a desk, and it still felt too big so I moved to the smaller one. It overlooks the garden and washing line. It’s the back bedroom of the house and the WiFi is in there. It’s closest to the bathroom.

By the way, I’ve since had that shelf taken out.

About occupants
I am a 21 year old law student who is in need of a roommate, around my age who I can get along with.

I started my career as a cook, then moved to case managing for both the Department of Justice and the Commission for Children and Young People in Family Violence and Child Abuse respectively. I now work as a tutor while in Uni.

I have 2 adorable cats who I have attached photos of. They’re very friendly and well behaved. I love to balance spending time at home with them and going out.
Compatible people
I definitely would like a friendly, fun person to move in. As much as I like my space, living with a total stranger just isn’t for me. I hate things being awkward or impersonal, so if that’s your style this may not work.

Looking forward to finding a roommate and hopefully a friend :)
Description of pets
My 2 cats are the sweetest little things on earth. One is a domestic shorthair named Clementine, the other a longhair named Marilyn. Marilyn is quiet, skittish and you can barely tell she’s in the room until you squint, but she warms up. Clementine will love you and affect you straight away. She has no survival mode at all. Very pretty, cute kitties. You have to love cats if you want to live here.
