THE LANDLADY:
Chilled, relaxed, respectful and friendly, keen on creating a safe, sustainable, progressive and relaxed household, where cleanliness and tidiness are the expected norm.

Respect of one another's space and privacy is a key prerequisite to comfortable cohabitation.

When both bedrooms are occupied, I use the living room as my bedroom.

I am about 90% Vegan, 10% vegetarian but only ask that lodgers close the kitchen door and open the window when cooking meat (and especially fish! 🤢🤢🤢)

I have a separate Ninja Foodi container to cook these foods.
