About the occupants
My name is Tom, I'm 32 and work full time as a political staffer in the city.

My housemate Rosa is 30 and a psychologist. She works full-time in Parramatta.

While we're both home by mid-evening most nights during the week, we both have busy schedules on weekends and jobs that take us away for work sometimes.
Compatible people
We are looking for a housemate that is full-time employed, laid back but considerate and respectful of the people they share their home with - and that sums us up, too!

We would prefer a long term housemate who will make our place a home, as it is for us.

We are open-minded, chatty and friendly people with progressive values and a commitment to social-justice.

We enjoy eating out for dinner and getting brunch at local cafes, but we do some cooking at home too.
Description of pets
We are animal lovers and have dogs that are very friendly and cute.
