Bookish, friendly, active; looking for houseshare
Hi! 👋
I’m Philip, 40 years old. I’m moving back to Bristol after about ten years living in Wales, Hungary, and Germany, among other places.
I’m an academic by vocation who is never far away from a good book. However, I also enjoy yoga, running, gardening, and getting outside in general.
I write for fun as well as for work. I’m trying my hand at writing a play at the moment and having a lot of fun with it.
I’d like to find a houseshare that feels like a little community, rather than just some random people who happen to occupy the same space.
I’m clean, tidy, and organised, without being obsessive about it. As a rule, I like home to be a peaceful place. However, I’m also up to party if everyone else is.
I think I’m a fairly typical Bristol leftie. LGBTQ+ friendly (very friendly, some might say). I’ve been known to leaflet for the Green Party.
Budget ~£750 pcm.
Furnished is preferred, but unfurnished is also possible. Otherwise, I’m not terribly fussy about the room, so long as it’s not a shoebox.
