Hi awesome future flatmate!

I am a friendly, female Christian teacher and writer, who enjoys a good cuppa and a chat, but is respectful of your space and independence. I love music, singing, listening to worship songs, cooking and baking. It would be nice to share occasional walks to the beach or river or grab a coffee if you fancy. I’m open to occasional shared meals, games or movie nights also, if that suits. Mindful of personal boundaries and quiet time.

I want this house to feel like your home and a place to relax. I am a positive, thoughtful person looking to share my environment with another peaceful soul.
