Looking for Room 🦒

I'm currently looking at rooms to rent in St. Albans, or the surrounding areas. I'm looking for more of a landlord-and-tennant type-situation, rather than an agency, or a room in a large HMO.

I am Alex, 31, and I am a Content Creator at Hertfordshire Zoo. Ideally, I'd be no more than a 25-30 minute drive to work (that also means I'll have a car, so I'll need parking; on street is fine!). I work Monday-Friday, and the occasional weekends along the way. A room with a good, modern finish, plenty of storage and neutral decor will be sure to grab my attention. Somewhere really easy to live - new builds or recently renovated rooms are perfect. A dishwasher is a bonus!

I moved to St Albans last year, with my current live-in landlord (yep, she moved me with her), and I fell in love with the city, and have made good friends here. Unfortunately, my current live-in landlord (F, 51), is moving for work, and we’re both devastated to be parting ways, as we have become really good friends over the last 2 years.

I am a relatively quiet but equally outgoing, funny, mature, self aware, and caring gay man. I appreciate my own space, so don't worry - I'll respect yours too. I enjoy cooking as much as I do eating. I don't enjoy the hangover as much as I do drinking, so my party days are waining - but not fully past me just yet. Being a former zookeeper, I'm very handy when it comes DIY and repairs - and that of course means pets are not just tolerated, but appreciated.

At the weekend, I like to batch cook, enjoy a rosé, spend time with friends, and head into London. I have close friends from around the country, so if they were to have somewhere to stay when they visit infrequently, or were welcome to share my room, it would be a positive, but is not imperative.

I am very independent and lead my own life, so I am no necessarily looking for friends, but a glass of wine on the sofa with some trashy tv and a good laugh is very welcome. I have lived with people for 13 years now, with no issues, so I consider myself to be very considerate and clean and tidy.

If I am somebody you think you'd be interested in letting your spare room to, please get in touch - I'd love to hear from you!

All the best, Alex
