Queer friendly Leftist Tidy I don't mind if smoking is allowed
Beschrijf jezelf
Hi everyone 😽
My name is Gabriel (they/them), I'm 21 years old, and I’m a queer and gender non-conforming college graduate. I just completed my Bachelor’s in Anthropology and Human Geography from University College Utrecht (the liberal arts and sciences faculty of the UU), together with a minor in Media Studies. As I had to move off campus in mid-August, I'm currently looking for a queer-friendly space to figure out the next phase of my life!
Firstly, I’d describe myself as a staunch leftist who is incredibly passionate about collective liberation, and I feel most fulfilled when participating in any form of activism. Going to protests is therefore also something I’d love to do together as a household. While this year I’ve been mainly focused on Palestine, I also plan to increase my involvement in other anti-fascist and environmental movements. However, as I now live with my parents and have to commute every day, it has been difficult to fulfil my roles within my groups, so it is really important for me to find a safe space in Utrecht soon 💌
Next to that, I would describe myself as an extroverted introvert, so while I am at my happiest interacting with other like-minded people, I also greatly appreciate my alone time. Although many of my college friends have moved abroad, I still have a nice network of friends in Utrecht, but I’m especially excited to make new ones! I also really enjoy making and sharing food, so I’m definitely looking forward to having dinners and cocktail nights! I’ve been a vegetarian for almost my whole life, and am also hoping to go vegan soon. I’m also obsessed with second-hand clothing, interior design, and aim to further make my lifestyle as sustainable as possible. I also like dumpster diving so every once in a while I might come home with a free piece of antique furniture ;)
In my free time, I greatly value a balance between calmness and spontaneity. On the one hand, I like to stay in and do arts (especially collaging), read books, watch movies and documentaries, go for walks, and listen to music (especially RnB, Soul, Soft Rock, and EDM. Some of my favourite artists are Erykah Badu, the Smiths, DJ Gigola). On the other hand, I love going on fun and crazy adventures, either exploring different cultural events or dancing the night away in Kabul à Gogo!
Lastly, I’m originally from Hilversum, but I was raised bilingually and did both my high school and Bachelor’s entirely in English, so I feel most at home in English-speaking and international environments. I also lived on a residential college campus for three years, so I'm very used to living together with others. I also like to keep my living space clean and tidy. In the coming period I'll be looking for job (initially I’d like to work at a cafe or bar, but in the long term I want to go into journalism and/or humanitarian work), as well as exploring which masters I want to do next year.
