Main interests
About the occupants
ME - left-leaning queer guy here, I work office hours (WFH 2 days) and enjoy getting to festivals/camping when I can. Occasional gardener.
Compatible people
YOU - A good fit is a queer guy who:
- has a life in Melb.- not just passing through
- is socially active
- contributes to the house and garden, not just live in a bedroom
- happy with shared pantry, proactive bills/cleaning

This place isn’t for you if you are just looking for a room rather than sharing a house; or those that need prompting with bills/cleaning.

If you think you would fit in from what you have read - please hmu with a note about what appeals, and the sort of vibe you contribute to a place.

If you msg be like "I like – when can I inspect the room" we are not a match.

Cheers :-)
Description of pets
