Shelby

Hi! I’m Shelby. I am looking to find a roommate in or around the Bowling Green area.

I’m 33 years old, extremely clean and organized, quiet and value my time to myself, but I’m also social and would love to be friends with my roommate. I’m a Christian. I very rarely drink, and on the off chance I do, it’s a glass of wine here or there. I don’t smoke anything or do any drugs.

I am a former paramedic and current CPR instructor. When I am not teaching, I pick up side work doing grocery delivery and courier tasks, and I also have quite the side hustle flipping small items on eBay.

I am out of the house a lot. I travel several times a month to teach and to visit family and friends in Tennessee and Georgia. I obviously want to feel like I am welcome to be home whenever I’d like to be, but the reality is that I am frequently away.

I love animals, but because of how much I am away, I do not have any and don’t plan to in the near future. I am pretty decent in the kitchen with both cooking and baking, and I am happy to share.

I am not from Bowling Green and am looking for a happy and healthy place to start life in a new area after the end of a long-term living situation with a then-significant other. There is no drama or anything like that. It’s just time to be somewhere new.

One of my sisters, her husband, and their daughter live in Bowling Green, and the idea of living near her brings my heart so much joy. I am also an avid country music lover and am excited about the proximity to Nashville.

My other hobbies include working out, reading and writing, paddle boarding, golf, road trips, thrifting, and pretty much anything outside. Don’t be scared about the thrifting—I hate clutter and only find things here and there to keep in my room and eventually sell.

Ideally, I would love to find a furnished room, as I am starting over, but that isn’t a deal breaker to me. I highly prefer a situation where I can pay by the week, at least at first. Income isn’t the issue, but I want to make sure both parties are comfortable and happy with the living situation, as we have all heard horror roommate stories. I think I’m a pretty great roommate, though!

I am not looking to be added to a lease or pay a hefty deposit, as I am literally arriving with myself, my clothes, and small personal items. My credit isn’t the greatest due to the relationship separation and the things that entails, but it has nothing to do with my rental history. Rent will always be paid on time and is my highest priority. I am a workaholic, and I am absolutely passionate about what I do. Work and income are not the issue.

Essentially, I just want somewhere I can move to short-term at first and see how we both feel—somewhere that is clean and comfy. I don’t care if you’re not as crazy about cleaning as I am, but I wouldn’t thrive well in a home that is just plain unsanitary.

I do want to live with another girl for comfort and safety. In the ideal situation, we would be somewhere around the same age, have similar lifestyles, and hopefully become friends!

I am looking to move no later than August 1, but I am open to moving sooner.

Thank you for reading! :)
