FREE room in highrise with additional pay
Hi, I'm looking for a friendly person with some similar interests to occupy a private furnished luxury bedroom and bath with ocean and city views in a downtown highrise. I've been forced into a semi state of (very) early retirement surprisingly due to a concussive force injury from an explosion that detonated in the unit below my prior residence (directly underneath my place of rest that was strong enough to shake the entire building) that has resulted in a neurological injury. This would be a long term wellness assistant role geared towards someone comfortable providing prescribed relaxation therapy under the California Alternative Healthcare Act. In exchange for your positive minded 'team' mentality that you are able to approach with a good sense of humor and cheerful demeanor, you will receive compensation totalling $3000/month in the form of a rental stipend (I will cover your share of the rent) as well as additional income through my health insurance. This is a very easy arrangement that is entirely done online, the only one hanging over your head would be me, and whoever's here can rest assured that all boundaries and respect will be absolutely maintained. I consider myself a 'high frequency' individual with a very light step and am in otherwise excellent physical condition aside from the injury which features neurological triggers and a heightened sensitivity to space dynamics, meaning I am looking for someone who is naturally 'on the level' and can happily contribute to an ideally long term teammate type arrangement where your security would be completely assured. Keep in mind that I am an attorney as part of my line of work, and as a professional, I am not looking for a standard roommate to be living in my place which I otherwise enjoy having to myself. Although the actual amount of time that I require is pretty light, it is essential that whoever is living here in 'the space' is 100% committed to my wellness. Due to the neurological nature of my injury, I am looking for someone who ideally has some interest in personal growth, values a high degree of personal integrity and is comfortable flowing with a good sense of humor and remains cool under pressure when we are both up and at em. As long as I'm doing well, whoever is here is encouraged to pursue outside goals or just take it easy and enjoy the views. For the right person, in exchange for your complete insulation from any outside concerns, I require someone who is comfortable leaving doors open, and is open to enjoying a relaxing nighttime city vibe. Consider it a 'no fly zone'. Someone looking to get through the living room and into their room to shut the door is going to inadvertantly be aggravating my injury with the wrong 'vibe' in the house. So thats the trade off. Obviously some personal space and time alone is natural, but their must be a clarity on boundaries and an open door policy to provide therapy when the need arises. Aside from the injury, I stay pretty busy handling cases, socializing with friends online, having people over, and staying in shape with outdoor activities. Whoever's here should be happy to occasionally hang out watching TV, be comfortable going on evening/nighttime/early morning walks to contribute to the vibe and keep our energy in sync. I consider myself a pretty entertaining guy and usually have no problem putting people entirely at ease. I personally find the bar scene around here a bit 'meh' but I'm always down for a little adventure. Having a few drinks on the balcony with friends and music seems to be a much more practical choice these days. Whoevers here should have no problem sleeping extremely well even with the doors open, whether it be in the day with white noise (rainstorms, ocean waves etc) or at night with relaxing music playing in the background and the curtains open to enjoy the panoramic views of the city, ocean and mountains. I have the place well insulated from the sun that comes up over the mountains to the east and the AC keeps the place cool. The currently unoccupied room is shaded most of the day by another highrise in close proximity. Its definitely not an office type environment with the thermostat set to 78 that you'll looking to plot an escape from. Whoever's here can rest assured that as long as I'm doing well, I will ensure absolute luxurious insulation without any outside concerns. And being that this is the home environment, I absolutely do not expect whoever's living here to be anywhere in the vicinity of 100% always 'up'. Much more a relaxing therapeutic 'health spa' vibe with occasionally hanging out and doing things if we're up to it. As long as a reasonable effort is maintained to ensure I'm doing well, I believe I have a very good sense when it comes to maintaining a healthy space. I also have a new luxury electric SUV that stays plugged in that will take care of all of our needs. If you have a car, there should be an underground spot available as well, if not, all the better as in my opinion, due to this particular dynamic, one is more than enough. In this particular place, I'm possibly open to having pets, but I am more of an air purifier and hand sanitizer guy, so case by case on that. There is a security clearance required that I will handle. The apartment is a fairly high up corner unit in a 45 floor building recently furnished and fully equipped with multiple TVs, a pool table, wraparound balcony, views of the stadium, W/D, A/C, marble counters, hardwood floors that I have mostly covered with wall to wall carpet, blackout curtains, LED lighting, a pool, spa, gym, yoga studio, various lounges for studying or entertaining, underground parking, and is within walking distance to bars, restaurants, and an easy drive to beaches, the Embaradero, the Zoo, Balboa Park and other attractions. Both bedrooms have full private bathrooms. I currently use the 'green' room as pictured, but I'm open to taking the 'white room' which looks out over the ocean as well. Everything needed is already here (linens, new sanitary mattress covers, and the room has been unoccupied for over a year now due to me being pre-occupied with other matters). Everything in the apartment has been recently purchased. I'm looking for a high energy individual who is comfortable taking the reigns and making the place their own, happy to contribute to organizing, improving and tidying up the place to ensure that no one feels taken advantage of. Someone who likes to cook is also appreciated and I expect anyone here to be happy sharing meals to maintain a conducive vibe. Keep in mind that with me in particular, I'm well beyond the whole 'keep it real' thing. No need to put on a show, absolute comfort is of utmost importance in a shared living arrangement from where I stand. Again, no particular experience needed, just a positive attitude and willingness to make an effort. Someone with an interest in alternative healing, yoga, and health retreats is helpful but not necessary. Again, I am completely aware that this is a living arrangement, and whoever moves in can rest assured that their comfort, security and 'insulation' will be of utmost importance provided we are both happy living here. By 'insulation' I refer to peace of mind knowing I am not plotting their removal as long as the person is operating from a place of integrity. The person will be listed as an occupant on the lease and will be treated like a standard resident with access to the concierge and ameneties offered. Again, just seeing whose out there, I do have a wide network of friends, but everyone is already settled and I'm specifically looking for live in help who will be happy to have a safe place with a similarly minded individual in exchange for being willing to occasionally help me relax when the wild wind blows... I guess thats what it is as I didn't experience anything like this before an explosion went off underneath my bed. Good opportunity for a student, someone new in town, or someone interested in having a safe place to land from somewhere else. If your still with me, I will be more than happy to respond to what I consider to be genuine inquiries with more details or to answer any questions. I've been around the block a few times, jumped out of a few trees and usually have no problem keeping people completely relaxed, laughing and having a good time when we're up and about. If you think you have what it takes to survive in these kinds of conditions feel free to reach out with as much information as your comfortable sharing to give me a better idea of whether it would be a good fit.
