ABOUT US
Ruth (29): I work as a fertility nurse, Monday to Friday/Saturday, 9-5 hours and one wfh day a week, I have a boyfriend who stays over occasionally and I also equally go to his. I am generally always into a strange craft (currently beads) and will provide you with small trinkets. I like eating, sleeping, moving, touching grass, all the things humans do really.
Steph (29): I’m a psychologist, currently WFH from my room, soon to be working full-time outside the flat. I love music and enjoy going to events on the weekends or finding random hobbies I can’t seem to master like DJing, guitar, crocheting, drawing, cooking etc. (feel free to teach me). Currently single and enjoy socialising/getting to know people, but also value my down time and independence :)
We’re friendly and sociable (when not premenstrual) but also really value our downtime. We enjoy chatting when we’re in the communal areas, but there’s absolutely no pressure to socialise when you feel like having time to yourself.
We occasionally go out together on weekends, go for a drink or have one at home. You’re always welcome to join, but there’s never any obligation! We like going out but we are not a party house and see our home as a tranquil space 💆♀️
We’re both social smokers and occasionally smoke out the kitchen window (not inside so it never smells like smoke).
ABOUT YOU
We’re looking for someone who is friendly, social and also values having a balance with their own space. We’re happy for you to have friends over and overnight guests. We want everyone to feel comfortable and at home!
We’re a queer friendly household and value people from all backgrounds so being similarly minded is important to us.
If this sounds like somewhere you’d enjoy living, feel free to send us a message with a brief intro about yourself, and we can arrange a viewing. We’re going to be answering messages over the next few days.
House viewings will be held November 14th & 15th.
