Animals
Two Maine Coons — Loki (6) and Leo (3) — and Lucian, a golden retriever who's six months old and still very much a puppy. All three are sociable and want to be wherever people are. You need to be genuinely comfortable living with animals. This one isn't negotiable.
Me
Elyas, originally from Greece, work remotely. I like a household that's relaxed — quiet when people need it, conversation when they don't, the odd garden gathering in summer. Tango, board games, travel when I can manage it.
You
Someone who keeps shared space reasonably tidy, raises problems directly rather than letting them sit, and wants a functional household rather than either total isolation or a constant social scene. Mid-20s to 30s tends to fit the rhythm here, though it's not a hard rule.
