About Your Housemates:
River (she/they) - I am in my mid-twenties and work as a medical assistant at a doctors office nearby. I’m not originally from this area but have fallen in love with it over the past 2 years. I love exploring the area and enjoy doing anything/everything outdoors. If I’m not at home or working, you can usually find me white water rafting, climbing, running, biking, playing racquetball, or hiking. I really value my relationships and time outside. With housemates, trust and respect for one another is a must. I appreciate ease of interaction and clear communication with one another. I’m a verbal processor, so I’m always down to talk things through! I love the little home we’ve created here and look forward to having you be a part of it :)

Mina (she/her) - I am in my late twenties. Just finished my dual masters and transitioning to full-time employment. I’ve lived in western MA for 10 years and absolutely love it! I have a lovely 8yo ~70lb dog who lives with us–she has full roam of the house. I am a go-with-the-flow kind of person and am always down for an adventure. I enjoy being in nature, tea shops, board games, antiquing/thrifting, reading, and festivals. As a housemate I value clean communal spaces and open communication. I take feedback well and prefer addressing concerns as soon as they arise. I appreciate being friends with roommates and respecting each other's independence / leading our own lives.
