WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR
I’d love to live with someone emotionally mature, respectful of shared space, and happy to chat sometimes—but also comfortable doing their own thing.
This is a healing home. Since I'm sober (no alcohol or drugs), we'll get along if you have a meditation or spiritual practice, think positively, and are cultivating a peaceful life.
You must love cats—I have two. One of them is extremely outgoing and affectionate and will greet you at the door!
Bonus points if you appreciate good design, minimal interior design, and prefer warm-toned lamps instead of overhead lighting.
I’m a sober, vegan, non-binary artist in my 30s who works a lot, so I deeply value coming home to a peaceful, restorative space. I enjoy lighting candles, meal prepping tofu, homemade sushi nights, coexisting quietly, and occasionally trading gossip over tea.
I read a lot of zines and art books—some from Secret Riso just around the corner. Lately I've been watching “The Rehearsal” and powering through gloriously bad shonen anime while I wait for the good stuff to come back from hiatus. I like to sing along to Brandy and neo soul oldies. Other times I play ambient music or old jazz and the cats and I just vibe. But mostly I'm using headphones or relaxing in silence.
I’ve lived with all kinds of housemates over the years—from folks in their early 20s to their late 60s, across major cities in the US and Asia. So I get how important it is to respect each other’s rhythms. I believe in open, kind communication, and if something ever feels off, I’ll show up with curiosity and try to make it right.
Current Tenant
- 1 month security deposit
