What we're looking for in a housemate:

We are looking for a woman in her 30's, good hygiene and capable of taking care of herself and her space. You are an excellent communicator, not afraid to voice your concerns in a calm and respectful manner and you're more than willing to do your part of the chores without being repeatedly asked.
We have a cleaning system that works pretty well for us, but we're open to discussing how to make this work for you too. We understand everyone has their own way of doing things, so we're here to make things fair for everyone.

We are looking for someone who understands how to respect other people's space, but wants to actively be part of a home and make long lasting friendships. So, if you prefer to only stay in your room, this may not be the place for you.
We want to find a housemate and a friend, someone who enjoys spending time living with us and equally carries their weight.
