Ce que vous allez adorer dans ce logement
We are a couple of young professionals, both in our late twenties. Sonia is an environmental attorney working for the State of California and Chris is a graduate student in accounting and part-time barista at a cafe in Oakland. We have a charming upstairs apartment in a 2-unit Victorian house in Berkeley, California to offer in exchange.
Our apartment is on the second floor with stairs and unfortunately is not suitable for a wheelchair. It has 2 bedrooms (the master bedroom has a queen size bed and the guest room has a twin-size bed but we can easily fit an additional twin-size inflatable mattress on the floor if need be); 1.5 bathrooms (one full bathroom with a bathtub, and one bathroom with sink + toilet only); a decent amount of living spaces including a dining area and a living room area with a pull-out couch which sleeps 2 people; and a peaceful private backyard with lots of light, perfect for lunch breaks and apéros during the summer. The house would be comfortable for up to 5 people (like 2 couples + 1 solo person, or a couple with up to 3 kids) or 6 people with an extra-inflatable mattress.
Since we both work from home, each bedroom has a standing desk near a window and a comfortable desk chair. One room has 2 monitors and the other one has only 1. The wifi is fast and reliable. Our place is perfect for digital nomads!
The apartment has double-pane windows in all the rooms so you won't hear the noises from the street at all when you are sleeping and/or working.
The apartment comes fully furnished and includes a projector for cozy movie nights. We also have tons of board games, if you are into that! Modern appliances include a washer/dryer in the main bathroom, several coffee brew methods, an electric stove, and a microwave.
We exercise in the apartment during winter and we have workout equipment (like mats, weights, a rowing machine) that you are welcome to use. We just ask that you please wipe down mats with water after use.
Depending on the time of year, there may be figs, apricots, lemons, limes, or other yummy fruits growing in our backyard and waiting to be eaten. Oh and, if you are lucky, you might spot really cool birds as well!
We love our cute little apartment and it has everything you need for a wonderful stay in the Bay Area.

Ce que vous allez adorer dans le quartier
We are within walking and biking distance from literally everything (walking score of 98 and bike score of 97!) From public transportation, UC Berkeley, Oakland, shops, restaurants, cafes, hiking trails, multiple parks/playgrounds, tennis courts, basketball courts, swimming pool, and more! Close to great restaurants (like ImmThai, Lucia's, Comal, Chez Panisse) on Solano Ave.
Short walk (around 6-7 min) to public transport (aka BART). San Francisco is only a 30-minute BART ride away, or 25 minute drive (if no traffic). Our place is a great base to explore San Francisco, Oakland, and the rest of the Bay Area from. Short drive to Napa and Sonoma County wine countries, coastal beaches like Point Reyes or the Highway 1, and mountains such as Yosemite National Park.
There are lots of grocery stores not far away by foot with fresh, local, organic products. There are tons of farms in the area, so the quality of fruits and vegetables around here is the best! There is a farmers' market every Saturday just up the street.
Downtown Berkeley is a safe and good neighborhood, with lots of trees and a diverse population (students, young professionals, families, and retired people). We are on a big street, but right around the corner from nice quiet streets to stroll or ride a bike.
Weather in summer here is lovely! Cool in the mornings, and sunny and ~25C/77F in the afternoons. It doesn't get hot very often, really a delightful place to spend a few weeks in the summer.

Le mot de la fin
We would like to disclose that we are not homeowners in Berkeley. We rent this apartment from our nice landlord who lives in the downstairs unit. She is very quiet and we very rarely see her. Because we are renting this place, we ask you: no pets; no parties; no smoking, and to be careful with the carpet (which is great at absorbing footstep sounds though!) :)
Unfortunately, we don't have a parking spot available for guests, but there is plenty of street parking close by if you need to park your car. Also, we have a big basement/garage where you can store stuff (like bikes) if necessary. We have a bike rack in the garage you are welcome to use if you’d like to lock your bike(s).
Looking for San Diego/LA in June or September 2024. And Senegal in December 2024!
Other destinations we're interested in: Japan, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Washington State, Canada!
Or GP exchange anytime our calendar is free :)
