A beautiful house close to everything in Berkeley, California very near San Francisco - We can't make plans yet for 2025 because of health issues, but we hope to be able to travel, in the summer.
We are always open to suggestions. We are particularly looking for an exchange with northern Europe for August of 2024.
Our lovely San Francisco Bay Area home was remodeled twelve years ago in a classic style. It shares a large yard with two other houses. The yard has a wood fired oven, a grill, a hot tub, a well-equipped workout area, and a common dining table on a large deck. We share the yard and amenities with the two other houses. Curtis' sister Jennifer and her partner Pauly live in the front house on the property. They are a two parent family and their 17 year old son lives with them. Jennifer and Pauly's house is on the street and our house is behind, reached through the yard. The third house is also on the street and our friends Ann and Clea live there. Ann and Pauly both speak Spanish and French passably.
It's really easy to get around on foot. It is an easy walk to Berkeley's Gourmet Gulch, Downtown Berkeley and the University of California. We also have three bikes you can use. The local rail system, BART, is three blocks away and will take you to downtown San Francisco in 25 minutes and either the Oakland or San Francisco airport in under an hour. You are also welcome to use either of our two electric cars.
We have four bedrooms, one with a king size bed and two with queen sized beds. We also have an office with a pull down queen size bed and a family room with comfortable chairs, a TV, and a single bed. Our large and well equiped kitchen has an induction range, a double oven, a built in refrigerator and freezer, and a dishwasher. There is lots of light in every room.
We would ask you to take care of our friendly cat by feeding him, letting him out in the morning and back in at night, and petting him some. We are happy to take care of your pets, too.

North Berkeley is a very walkable neighborhood with lots of shops, restaurants, and walking stores nearby. There are farmers markets less than a mile away twice a week. It is a short drive or bike ride to Tilden park or the waterfront both provide stunning views and many miles of hiking trails.

Aardig gezin, goed contact voor de ruil en tijdens. Huis uitstekend beschreven
As a first exchange for us, this was an amazing home exchange. Curtis and Cindy’s home is beautiful. Their neighbours nearby are kind, thoughtful and friendly. We could not have wished for better. We feel privileged to have been able to stay in their home. The surrounding area was so safe, convenient for travel to the wider Bay Area with an abundance of local amenities. We spent so much time just relaxing in the beautiful garden and on so many days did not want to leave. Cindy and Curtis left our house clean, tidy and were very respectful of our neighbours. Could not have asked for a better home exchange. Excellent communication throughout exchange period and preceding holiday.

Cindy is a retired political fundraiser who worked to elect Democratic pro-choice women to office in California. Curtis is a public transit consultant who works with public transport agencies across the United States. Our eldest son is in Law School in New York and our younger son goes to college in Minnesota. It gives us great joy that our kids still enjoy traveling with us.
