Gearing up to move out and share a place with a mate? It’s an exciting step! But it can also be a bit daunting. No worries, we’ve got some ace tips to help you out.
1. Have a Good Yarn
Chatting is key! Sit down with your roommate and have a fair dinkum convo about what you expect, what ticks you off, and any worries you’ve got. Clearing the air from the start makes things heaps easier.
2. Give Each Other Space
Respect your mate’s stuff and space like you’d want them to respect yours. Ask before borrowing anything and treat their gear with care. It’s all about mateship.
3. Stay Sorted Together
Keeping the place clean doesn’t have to be a headache. Work out a roster with your roomie for chores like cleaning and taking out the rubbish. Sharing the load makes life simpler for everyone.
4. Learn to Share and Share Alike
Living with someone means you gotta compromise sometimes. From picking TV shows to setting the temp, finding common ground is part of the deal. Give a little, take a little.
5. Enjoy the Ride
Moving out and living with a mate is a ripper experience! It’s a chance to grow, make mates, and have some top-notch times. Soak it all in, make memories, and enjoy every minute.
