KR's room

Portland, OR 97203

The house is big and the location is amazing: I can walk to all social and chore needs, including straight into the forest. I have two rooms available. The rooms are 10 and 11x12 with full closets and there are 2 ½ baths so sharing isn’t an issue. I can furnish the room if you want. I’m a couple blocks from Cathedral Park and I can see St. Johns Bridge from many windows! The house has a great design for shared living: a social floor, the bedrooms on a separate floor, and a full dry basement with some storage for you. We have a washer and dryer onsite and plenty of street parking. There are two covered porches, a big shady fenced backyard, and irrigated beds for gardening. A third of utilities has been about $100 during the peak winter costs. The 3 month time frame is a trial period, given we’re strangers talking about cohabitating. Reach out if you want to chat and meet each other!

Hi! My name is Kim and I’m a 40s queer, white privileged, rad woman. I have a service dog reject, Annie the Adventure Lab. I got my own place after a lot of transition during COVID. My house is a calm and stable environment for myself and others. I’m an anti-capitalist, anti-patriarchal, anti-racist nature lover and book worm. I was raised living in community and I have lived with hundreds of amazing humans, many of whom have become chosen family. I’m a lifelong learner with decades of communication training and I’m a badass who gets stuff done and knows how to step up for what’s right. I’m also a teacher, so I take COVID precautions seriously. I play board games, cook often and like to share, bike or walk most of the time, and love exploring and going on adventures. I’m an active and busy person, but I also make the time to warmly greet everyone. I have a balanced need for time with myself to recharge as well as sharing social activities like meals, crafting, games and puzzles, etc. I’m working on building my community in Portland, so a good fit with my housemates is the most important factor for me. I’m going to live with people who are:

• kind and friendly: baseline polite,
• mostly sober: no daily users,
• consistent and responsible for themselves,
• clear communicators,
• into occasionally hanging out or shared projects,
• growing human beings who don’t attempt power games.
