About the room
One bedroom and a private small living room will be available November 1st. They are located on the first floor of the house where I have lived for 20 years, in the neighborhood of Sunnyside, in Calgary, Alberta. It is fully furnished. That bedroom and living room are my own space. I am renting that space out for the period during which I will be away in South America working on a school project (November 2026 throughout February or March 2027).
I am looking for a single woman who is clean, tidy, responsible, respectful, doesn´t smoke, doesn´t party in the house, and doesn´t have any pets. I would prefer a university student or someone with a full-time job. The person should like plants (I have a few, including four tropical plants).
The house has a basement room. There will be another person staying in that basement room, therefore the kitchen, the bathroom and the laundry room will be shared with that person. The living room will not be shared with the person downstairs.
The house was built over 100 years old. It has its personality and a nice energy. It has a small front yard and a larger backyard. It is located near the river and paths (just at the end of the street) and downtown is right on the other side of the river. Kensington is only 8 min. away walking. There you can find a supermarket, restaurants, bars, banks, bus stops and the Sunnyside train station (one station away from SAIT and ACAD, and four stations away from the University of Calgary). It is a very green and pleasant neighborhood.
About the roomies
I won´t be in the house as explained in the other section but let me tell you about me anyways. I am originally from Southern Europe (France and Spain are my two countries) but I have been in Calgary for over 20 years. I work independently as a language tutor (French, Spanish and English) but I have a background in environmental science (Masters from the University of Calgary) and environmental education (degree from the University of Quebec at Montreal). I develop projects in environmental education with schools in South America.
The person who stays in the basement room has a full time job Monday through Friday and on the weekends he volunteers at the Calgary Humane Society. He is rarely in the house, he doesn´t cook much, he doesn´t smoke, and he doesn´t have any pets.
