Arlo

Hi! I’m Arlo, moving to Montreal mid-August from France and looking for a flatshare:) I’ll be moving to Montreal to do a film studies PhD at Concordia and ideally looking for a flatshare in the plateau area but am pretty open to anything, mainly wanting to live with people I can hang out with and be comfortable around! My budget is about 700-800 CAD max, and I’d like to move in mid-August but happy to start paying rent earlier if it’s a good fit! Ideally looking for a flat with a lease ending in July 2025 or a renewable lease as I am meant to be staying in Montreal til at least 2030. I’ve been living in flatshares since I was 17 (in London and Glasgow), I like being around people and socialising, ie going out, having a chill one at the pub, or just hanging at the flat and cooking or having a movie night. Also like having my own space and respecting other people’s need for that so I’m very happy to have a balance between chatting shit and hanging out and being a gremlin in my room to recharge. In terms of living with people, I think communication and respect are key values – I tend to let a bit of chaos in my own space but I’m very careful in common areas and think it’s good for everyone to be responsible and respectful about the flat in general. I’m from Paris originally but have been moving around a bit – I love travelling and meeting new folk etc etc. In terms of hobbies, I love cinema and talking about cinema (horror in particular), swimming, crafts (I make earrings @__wiredbyarlo on insta hihi), going to gigs (punk, psych rock, post-punk, HC punk…), reading, sometimes writing, going charity shopping, taking long main character-esque walks with a podcast or tunes on, and cooking! Feel free to pm me about anything else x Arlo
