About me:
I am a 24 year old social media creator / currently bartender but looking to make a switch to a daytime part time job. I graduated in 2021 with a degree in fashion technology from Heriot Watt. I work mostly freelance and sometimes from home. My schedule is not 9-5 so I am around the flat a lot. I was born in Poland but have lived here for 16 years so I feel pretty local.

I love to travel, cook at home, try new things, I am pretty easy going and enjoy socialising when given the chance. I’m quite confident, positive and creative with a friendly and open attitude. I like to attend fun events, go for drinks, fuel my clothing addiction (all the fun girlie things 💅🏼). I listen to indie, pop, RnB, feel good tunes. Enjoy a good medical series, rom coms, new movies - not really one for reality TV.

My ideal flatmate:

• a fun outgoing and sociable girl - I love to sit down and gossip, cook together, share things, I am looking for someone to be my flatmate as well as become a friend over time. I would love to be able to go out together and coexist comfortably.

•. Looking for someone who is happy to keep shared spaces clean and organised to best extent and tidy after themselves, I’m not a clean freak but I believe everything has its own space.

• Must like cats !!!! 🐈 As the third flatmate is a furry little creature my ideal flatmate will love him as much as I do. He is super chill and sleeps most of the day, but he has his playful moments. The type of cat that will cuddle but on his terms. Not aggressive at all, very relaxed kitty.
I will ask you to help me with caring for the cat on occasion, like nights away or short trips. It would only include feeding and occasionally litter. This is very important to me and I really hope to find someone who is okay with this :)

• I’m pretty understanding and happy to share the flat accordingly, I’m really hoping to find someone who can communicate with me as just a reasonable person and have no petty behaviour.

• good common sense

• this is not a huge party flat however very open to host gatherings and little get togethers when you feel like it! All within reason. I do love a little drink!

• if you’re in a relationship (all good with me) however, I do not want them pretty much living in the flat as I have had bad experiences in the past with this. Sleepovers etc more than ok again, all within reason and communicated :)
