ABOUT ME AND MY CURRENT FLATMATE.
I am a Franco-British artist (sculptor, children's book illustrator) and I also teach philosophy, literature, and history.
I work a lot, rather an early bird. I am interested in people, literature, politics, cinema, history, music, gardening, rambling, swimming and the arts. I take pollution and global warming seriously.

My flatmate is a Chinese illustrator in her late 30s who did a Master in Cambridge, published several children books and has been living in this house for 8 months.
We get along well and in spite of our different timetables we share some meals. Both of us like cooking. In the summer, having dinner in the garden is a pleasure.

For this quiet & bright very comfortable room, I am looking for a flatmate who is sociable but not intrusive; quiet, clean, respectful of my life and work as we will be of his/her. I am very happy to share a drink or a meal from time to time, or even often, but not looking for it if you prefer not to. In short, Dongni and I are considerate, we expect our new flatmate to be the same.

Including the flatmate I am looking for, we will be three in the house.
