Wonderful dog
If you enjoy gardening I welcome your participation as I work to improve the space creatively and attempt to develop something beautiful.
I’m a PhD research student in psychiatry and will be here for at least four years but am likely to stay more permanently. I welcome professionals or other postgraduates that want something rather quiet and welcoming. I’m fairly busy with life, enjoying all the facets of Cambridge, as well as a fair bit of rowing. I like having a well kept, comfortable home and lodgers that are like minded.
My other housemate is scientific publishing with the Cambridge University Press and is an absolute pleasure. She is also quite tidy, quiet and easy to get along with.
Last important item, is that the key reason for renting a house is to have my dog Barney with me. He’s about 23kg and thinks he's a lap dog (very friendly), 10 years old and still surprisingly energetic. Thus it will help if you’re fond of dogs.
Look forward to meeting you and seeing if this is a good fit! :-)
