Single in eco-friendly sociable house

Ad ref# 15131542

Hi there potential new housemate!

We are looking for someone friendly and respectful to live with, who is keen on good communication and mindful of their impact on the planet, and the human beans they live with :)

Please reply with some info about yourself (or give us your number and voice-note us responses) or we might not be able to get back to you, thank you :)

What it's like to live with us:-

We are a group of friendly, eco-minded, nature-loving, outdoorsy folks, working in earth sciences, sustainability, woodlands and food poverty - into everything from volunteering in social justice to climbing to foraging to wild swimming to racquet sports to learning languages (french, spanish and italian are spoken in varying amounts) and sharing plant-based / veggie/vegan dinners.
We sometimes hang out or have a cuppa together or eat food together; and sometimes do our own thing.

We like to borrow ideas of sharing living space from housing cooperatives - we buy bulk food (large bags of lentils (endless daal!), grains, spices :)) and a shared organic veg box from a local farm, and ideally, each of us cooks a large pot of tasty *veggie-vegan* food once a week, so that there is always food at home to eat.

We don't all eat together all the time of course, but this works well if everyone is up for it - and means we all save time, energy and eat well :)

(It is flexible and we have people over for dinners too, and works really well if you like cooking nice food but also like to do your own thing and don't have time to cook every day :) )

- We all chip in with with cleaning and making home a friendly place - and we have a decent, competent landlord that responds and fixes issues when needed to.

- We aren't big party animals or big drinkers, but we would like to have pals over for pot luck dinners and feasts and fires (and firey singsongs) and individually we do like to go out sometimes, go see live music, dance, and we laugh a lot! We very much also do our own thing - but it's nice if there are some shared interests too :)

Practicalities:-
- Room - sadly our pal is moving job to london :(
The room is a big (16.3 sqm), bright room, lots of space to work from home if you do, or to stretch/have pals to stay/do yoga/etc. You get beautiful evening light and our street is very quiet and friendly :)

If that sounds good then send us a message with some information about yourself when you message as this is very much a shared home, not a hotel-vibe :)

We have been a mix of professionals and phd students and we sometimes Work From Home. There are a couple of small spare desk / tables around to work on and desks in all rooms for anyone WFH, and phone signal is mostly good.

Wifi is good, the garden is lovely and sunny, there is secure bike storage in the back garden. Landlord is fair and decent.

**We have a strong preference for someone who will stay longer term*** - i. e. over a year ideally!
