About the roomies
We are 3 mature adults, employed in construction management, carpentry, and graphic design, respectively. We are friendly and respectful. Home is where we rest and recover from our busy schedules. It is a quiet household (ie: not a party house) and it’s important to us to find someone who will also appreciate that type of environment. We have a weekly cleaning schedule to maintain the shared kitchen.
