If you want to hangout and go to a coffee shop, bar, shopping,or just feel like doing something spontaneous, then I am game!, I'm pet friendly but don't own one,I don't keep late nights,I was born in Canada and my mum was from Idaho where I am presently,before my high school i lost my mum and my dad 4 years ago and since then i ave been under the care of my uncle,my mum was a nurse too and that made me to be an Occupational Health Nurse,An occupational health nurse (OHN) is responsible for the health and well

I was looking to move over to your state, because i understand that I'll be doing good over there as i have been told by my uncle's friend who ones live over there..And i will be working with any hospital around as i am also making enquires on that now... Am sure You 'll really like the person that i am ,because i will also do the dishing if you like,I work when i am to and relax when i am to,I also like sharing my thoughts also....paying rent on time will not be a problem as i will also be making the rent fee before the month ends....
Right now. I have the support of my uncle about my well being,so you shouldn't be bothered about if i am competent of paying the rent.
I must confess am comfortable with the price and I will want to secure the place down before my arrival so i will want you to tell me all about the place,as i can't see it before my arrival but I'll be
comfortable with pictures or a good description will do as i don't have much preference...I also will want you to know that i have my car that i will be coming over with,and little of my furniture,please let me know if there will be room for them.. With all that i have said above,I have told you more about me and a picture of mine will be attach in the next email,Let me also know how i can go about securing the place down before my arrival as i will also be busy from next week preparing to come over and let me know if you can take off the ad off the site as i am going to secure the place with a deposit .
Feel free to ask me any question and as I Ave said,I am looking to move in ASAP,So please email me back if you are looking to rent out ASAP too,pl's do email me back so I know more about the place and
pictures of the place too if you have got... .I really need a roof ASAP,so please email me back as soon as you can,and,A picture of mine will be attach in the next email,let me know if we can proceed,as I am

Hello Roomy,


I'm Rachel Roberts, 28yrs old citizen of Bristol, England. I graduated from Manchester University in England which I study fashion designer and now I am working as a fashion designer based on contract and a consultant also model. I was once lived in OHIO (North Olmsted) about a years before I move back to United Kingdom to have some courses in Fashion since 2yrs now, I am presently in China for a seminar. I will be returning back in two weeks time not to United Kingdom but to state due to a contract I will be handling there and I will be needing a new accommodation to stay while I was searching through the web then I came across your advertisement about the room and I would like to know if it's still available because I’m extremely interested in renting the place. Here are the questions I would like to know about the room before planning to move in.

(1) I would like to know maybe there are shopping mall, Churches, bus line, rail way lines that is very close to your neighborhoods
(2) I would like to know the total cost for the my initial move such as the first moth, last month, utilities and if you also accept deposit for the place
(3) I would like to know if there is any garage or parking space because I will have my own car shipped down.
(4)I would like to have the description of the room, size and the equipments in there.
(5) I would also like to know Your payment mode because I would prefer to pay with a Certified Check
(6)I would like to know if I can make an advance payment ahead my arrival which will stand as a kind of commitment that I am truly coming over, so you can hold the room for me.
I will be very glad to have all this questions answered in your next email and if you don’t have all this kindly let me know what you have around and what I need to know about the place.
To introduce myself initially I was born and brought up in England, I had all my education there as well, here are little things I would like you to know about me. I’m single and have never been married' we are 2 from my parents me and my brother, my mom and my dad have passed away in an auto accident some years back, but before she died my mother is a catholic volunteer worker in England. I'll choose your city to my new contract based on the new things I got from the seminar I had in china. Kindly get back to me a sap with your monthly rent and deposit I need to pay to enable you turn down other interest and keep the place for me until I arrive because I love to make deposit before my arrival for me to know that I have gotten a place upon my arrival.

I will like to know the total amount for a month and a whole year if possible because I am more interested in a long term lease and if you are a short term renter I think I would stay just for a month or two till I get another place i can live in, if you can reserve the room for me and remove the advert I will be very happy.
I want you to get back to me a sap so that I can inform my Client to issue out the payment for you to hold the place for me till I arrive, Below is one of my pictures and I would love that you get back to me with your picture too so I can know and see how the person that am dealing with is.
I will be looking forward to hear from you soon

Regards,
Rachel
