About the landlady:

I am a chilled, relaxed, respectful, friendly person, keen on creating a sustainable, progressive and relaxed household.

Respect of one another's space and privacy is key to comfortable cohabitation, and, although I use the living room as my bedroom at night, during the day, and when I am away, it is open, and I welcome lodgers to come in, chat, watch TV and also use the table and chairs for meals, by arrangement.

I am about 90% Vegan, 10% vegetarian and ask that lodgers close the kitchen door and open the window open,

I have a separate Ninja Foodi container for these foods.
