Profile of Cara-Lena N

About Cara-Lena N

Originally from Germany, I've been living in Cork for the past few years and work full-time as a postdoctoral researcher in computational materials science. I'm looking for a place to call home rather than just somewhere to stay. I value a peaceful, tidy environment where I can relax after work and take pride in looking after the place I live. While I mostly enjoy a quiet lifestyle, I occasionally like having a few friends over for dinner, coffee or board games. I'm organised, reliable and respectful, and I'm hoping to find a home where I can settle long-term and build a positive relationship with my landlord.
