Personal introduction
Hi, I’m Tessa, 29, a Biomedical Sciences master’s student from the University of Amsterdam. I’m moving to Brisbane in October for a ~7-month research internship at the University of Queensland, where I’ll study endometriosis using organoid models. During the week I’ll be busy at the lab, but I make plenty of time for myself; whether that’s salsa dancing, lifting at the gym, or enjoying a quiet evening with a book. I’m also always up for a flat white or a pub night if there’s rugby on!
Compatible people
For me, a good flatmate is respectful of each other’s space and routines, but also open to sharing the occasional coffee or night out. I value cleanliness, honesty, and good communication. I enjoy my personal time, but I also appreciate a friendly, easygoing atmosphere at home.
Food sharing and furniture
I usually arrange my own food, though I’m happy to share occasionally. I eat everything, but I try to limit meat to about three times a week. Since I’m coming from Amsterdam, I won’t bring any living room furniture with me.
