About me
As for me, I am 29. I grew up in the Highlands, moved down to Edinburgh for university, and stayed. I am currently doing my PhD part-time and work as a piano teacher, so I don't work from home - but those who do work from home are more than welcome! In my free time, I love doing anything creative, playing the piano, and spending time outside (when the weather is nice...obvs).

Looking for
I would love to have a flatmate with whom I can easily hang out in the evenings and who is interested in some of the same things as I am. If that all sounds good to you, do send me a message :)
