THE VIBE

• Shared home with your own space too. It works well because it’s spread out over multiple floors and when we’re on different schedules we’ll often not run into each other at all (but we’re a friendly shared household when we do)
• Roommates are mixed gender 30-40 something professionals (& student) that work pretty hard during the week and prefer to leave the house when it’s time to go have fun.
• Cleanliness and tidiness is very important - Not leaving personal items around after using common areas, kitchen counters wiped after use and left sparkling for the next person, shared household responsibilities (recycling/compost, dishwasher dusting, sweeping, etc.)
• General flavour of the house super chill & friendly, but also fairly quiet overall because we tend to work a lot - sometimes in our rooms but often on our laptops throughout the house, sometimes with a glass of wine. Entertainment tends towards music over TV, and then learning/shows/movies over sports
• Cigarettes are a no-go, but 420 friendly

YOU

• Professional, mature student, or generally rad and engaged person with experience in shared living arrangements
• Conscientiousness - thoughtfulness about others in the space and treads with a relatively light impact (not slamming drawers or doors, speakerphone convos with others in the room, etc.)
• Proactive communicator, especially when there’s something bothering you, and not taking it personally when I tell you there’s something bothering me
