Looking for a new home!
Hi! After moving home for a little bit at Christmas. I'm looking for a new place with my roommate Darwin, the 21-year-old friendly tortoise!
More than anything, I love a good chat and would love to meet some new silly people to hang out with.
I’m not very good at writing these but like pretty much everyone in London in their 20s my time is split between going climbing, pretending I can DJ or listening to NTS radio. I’ve recently developed a mild Vinted addiction and a really severe Lily Allen addiction.
I'm from London and have a wide network of friends nearby who I spend a lot of time with (we’re always trying to meet new people!) but also love to get to know my housemates.
I’ve lived in house shares for the past six years and it’s how I’ve met some of my closest friends. I love to go out but I’m equally happy staying in feeding Darwin some dandelions or watching a film.
I always enjoy meeting my housemates’ friends and having people round for dinner or a drink.
Ideally, I'll be looking to move in spring and I'd love to have a garden to get Darwin some more sun in the summer.
I work as a journalist and I’ll be working most weekends (but not from home) and tend to have a few days off in the week which I spend swimming, running, walking our neighbours' dogs or trying to find gigs and club nights to go to that make me feel like I’ve not missing out on last Friday night.
I would be more than happy to live with any pets - as long as they don’t eat Darwin.
If you think we'd be a good fit for your place then please let me know 😊
