Other information
An average sized room, with built-in wardrobe, that's large enough to fit a queen size bed, two side tables, plus an additional side table. It's very private and quiet, and faces east - so plenty of morning sunshine! The room has a large window and nice outlook over the common garden as well as nearby factory rooftops. It's right next to the main bathroom (your own private bathroom) with toilet and shower bath.

About the occupants
Hi there, I'm Lauren, I'm 32 and work full-time as a content marketing manager at a technology company in Pyrmont. I work pretty standard hours and also work from home every Friday. I enjoy socialising with family and friends on weekends, and also like getting out and about on week nights. I also equally enjoy a quiet night in with some takeout, trashy reality TV and some good banter.

My interests: I'm travel obsessed (always planning the next big adventure!), I also love heading to gigs (bonus points for good music taste!) and stand up comedy shows, writing, hiking, and good food and wine.
Compatible people
This is definitely not a party house by any means, but I do enjoy having friends over occasionally for dinners and some pre-drinks before a night out, and would want anyone that lived here to feel comfortable enough to do the same. I'm also very house proud, so a clean and tidy person that's happy to do their share of the cleaning (without being asked) is essential.

Ideally I'm just looking for a considerate, sociable, working professional with similar interests. Someone who is happy to socialise over a few drinks or dinner, but also has their own thing going on.
