'60s Modern Cottage in Napa/Sonoma Wine Country
Perched on Sonoma Mountain, surrounded by vineyards. This is the ultimate Wine Country exchange. Experience Sonoma County as the local growers and winemakers do (minus the hard work)!
This home is in the heart of Wine Country, above Sonoma Valley--the place Jack London called "The Valley of the Moon" in his famous novel of that title. We are in a region full of the best hiking, cycling, dining, and wine-tasting opportunities in the world. We love Sonoma best, but you can also visit the wine route of the Napa Valley just 15 miles away, and we are just an hour from Pacific Ocean beaches and spectacular ocean drives.
Ours is a rural road that winds past vineyards and hidden mansions, yet we are only one hour and fifteen minutes from San Francisco.
NOTE: If you wish, exchange might also include use of our San Francisco apartment (Intervac listing USC724), an hour and fifteen minutes away.

Texto de apresentação da família
We are Charles (retired art critic, college president, and art museum director) and Kitty (the retired Features Editor of a major newspaper). We now split our time between homes in San Francisco and in Sonoma County, as Kitty works on writing a book and Charles considers the metaphors presented by a small vineyard, orchard, and garden.
Estilo de vida
We are very active people, both physically (we exercise most days, walk 5-6 miles daily) and socially. In the city (San Francisco), we attend art exhibition openings, theater and music events several nights each week. In the country (Sonoma County), we enjoy nature, visit the numerous famous wineries and vineyards, and re-charge our batteries among our grapevines, fruit trees and vegetable garden. We read a lot, miss too many current movies, have no TV (though we stream things online).

FR1910249Excellent hosts, beautiful & peaceful apartment in San Francisco.
Great location. We are extremely grateful to have organised an exchange with Charles and Kitty. It was a non-simultaneous swap. We are now expecting them to enjoy our Loft in Paris, France, early June 2022.
Again, Intervac has proved to be the best solution for our family travels.
Also very grateful for the excellent work done by the French Intervac representative Kristina Caillaud.
Best wishes to you all.
