About the occupants
Available 23rd November. I am a 50 year old male currently working as a photographer. After work I like to prepare a meal, eat and then tend to, read or watch TV. My weekends are spent taking photos, working, relaxing or sometimes I listen to music while reading. I don’t have friends around very often and I never have parties or play loud music. I like to visit a café on the weekends for breakfast or go out to a restaurant for lunch or dinner and I sometimes catch up with friends for drinks at restaurants, bars or pubs.
Compatible people
I am looking for someone that is clean and tidy, someone that will clean their dishes immediately... and put them away. Someone that will put the inner role of the toilet paper in the bin when they are done with it. Someone that pays attention to details.
