About the occupants
Hello, my name is Leonie, I'm in my 50's, and work full time as a Vocational Advisor. I live a pretty busy life with work and also sing part time with a band. I guess I regard myself as a fairly youngish 50's. My home is quiet and peaceful and I find it a nice retreat from the world. I don't watch a lot of tv and have reasonably early nights through the week.
Compatible people
I'm looking for a mature, easygoing, honest, reliable and friendly housemate. Definitely a non smoker. Someone who is reasonably quiet living and happy to do their share of household chores. Someone who has a positive outlook on life and probably not much into staying up really late through the week, watching tv etc. I prefer someone who is working full time or will consider someone studying. Must like animals.
Description of pets
I have a Chihuahua who is house trained, however elderly - almost 18 years old, but lovely natured. I also have a tortoiseshell cat who is also housetrained and loves to sit outside in the sun. She is quite friendly and loves a cuddle now and then.
