Description
I am a University of Ottawa–affiliated academic and practitioner seeking a quiet, furnished home for a medium-term stay (July–December 2026, flexible) while consolidating teaching and research commitments in Ottawa. I work independently, keep regular hours, and value a calm, respectful living environment. I maintain a low-impact, quiet presence and take thoughtful care of the homes I live in. I am comfortable with owner absences or shared-use arrangements within clearly agreed expectations, including basic property oversight ( plants, mail, general upkeep), with details aligned to the needs of the home, and with animals if present. Ideally located within reasonable distance of the University of Ottawa. References available upon request. My work focuses on housing, climate resilience, and community systems.
