Type of housemate Iâm looking for⦠Looking to cohabit with polite and friendly housemate(s), who is easy to get along with. Looking for person or couple who are preferably working or fully time students. Also friendly and happy to contribute towards a clean, tidy and happy home. I will respect your personal space at all times and give you space in the shared parts of my home when you want some time to yourself. The house is small but I am often busy and outside the home or just working in my office. Prefer someone or a couple where at least most of the time they go to their workplace or at least have plenty of outside interests. I do however have a home office so might consider home based working. Although I didn't tick the LBGT household box, I just wanted to say I'm comfortable with diversity of any kind and welcome anyone regardless of their sexual orientation, gender, nationality, or race. About me--- You will be sharing with a single professional, who is friendly and easy to get along with. Iâm by trade a scientist (PhD biologist) but now have a small tech company I run. I'm liberal, well travelled with grown up children and very much young at heart. Interested in fitness and adventure, art, music, the environment , film and photography, the natural world, music, engineering and science. Applicants can message or phone me directly. I will try to reply to your enquiries. Warm regards JonShow more
