Guest article by Judy Sheard.
I am 65 years old, an introvert, and have recently discovered the gem that is coliving.
I have spent time at Roam Miami, a community occupying a former boarding house that is now a completely renovated coliving establishment.
It has 4 buildings, each with 8–10 rooms, and all with their own bathroom.
The rooms are beautiful; some quaint, others roomy, all very comfortable. There is a fully-stocked communal kitchen (the center of the Roam universe), a swimming pool, a large work space, small conference rooms, a library, yoga room and area for community meals.
There is rarely a time when the kitchen is empty.
Residents are preparing their meals or just hanging out. As is the case when entertaining at home, some of the best conversations take place in the kitchen.
Community is at the heart of coliving
I was able to be very productive during work hours and then had absorbing opportunities for conversation, interaction and merriment.
