I’m a guy in my mid-40s. I’ve been living in this apartment since I moved back to Boston in 2024, and my two roommates are moving out at the end of this cycle. I work in the performing arts and I volunteer regularly. I grew up in Western Massachusetts and occasionally I visit friends out there on the weekends. My family lives in the midwest and the DC area.

I hope to live with someone who values maturity, stability, and direct communication. I’m laid back and friendly, and I mostly keep to myself when I’m at home. A cup of tea and a chat from time to time is great as well.

Professionals, academics, older students, and creatives are especially welcome.
