About occupants
Name is Adrian, I’m 42, recently married. I do most of the coordinating and running of the house. I keep to myself and my partner (Merryl) as we stay upstairs (predominately our domain), rather than downstairs which tends to be for yourself and the other housemate. I like to watch boring, factual YouTube videos, and I’m an ex-maths teacher. I like skateboarding, motorbikes, and playing jazz guitar (Gypsy jazz). I tend to be quite laid back, but if u push me too far you will definitely know about it, in a clear, rational, logical manner.

My partner and upstairs housemate is Merryl, 39, my wife. She is great fun, works from home (her office is downstairs), super adventurous, from India, and loves riding motorbikes.

Atm Gabe is the other flatmate, he is in his 50s, works as a tradie and likes motorbikes, boxing, rock n roll n playing the drums & guitar. He may decide to leave the house in the coming future.
Compatible people
Someone who can respect and take care of the house, picks up on the vibe and fits the house, is pleasant, courteous and considerate. Someone that doesn’t mind hanging out sometimes, however that has their own life and interests and can amuse themselves.
Description of pets
We have two 1year old kittens, Mewtwo and Bagheera. They tend to mainly hang upstairs, but they will happily be your friend. They are inside cats, so it does mean being responsible and shutting doors so they don’t escape. One is a scaredy cat, other already wants to be your new best friend.
