LOGISTICS
Room in a 2 bed 1 bath available on January 1, 2025. $1,550/month + utilities (wi-fi, gas, electricity, which add up to be less than $100/month). Open to a single person or a couple if you pay more.
You would be added to a 1-year lease, with the option to renew. So you'd need to get approved by the landlord, who's chill but responsive.

YOUR ROOM
faces south (lots of sun) and away from the street (quiet). It's pretty big (11ft x 10.5ft) and has a large closet. Currently fits a full sized bed and a desk comfortably.

THE APARTMENT
a 2 bed 1 bath on the second floor of a duplex that’s right next to a community garden, which you can use as a back yard. The street is residential, beautiful, and tree-lined. Here's a video of the empty apartment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ubA8FnC-Wk

About This Lister

The vibe is cozy and chill. There are lots of books, and a big dining table that can seat 6-10 people for dinners. Perks include but are not limited to: amazing conversation, homemade kombucha, and cat cuddles.

You’d be sharing the apartment with my dear friend Tina (she/her) and her cat Osiris. Tina is a psychology grad student who has lived in cities across the world as a filmmaker and journalist. She’s into photography, migrant justice, healing intergenerational trauma, and kombucha, among other things. A friend of hers once wrote something like "knowing Tina exists in this world makes it a brighter, better place", and I couldn’t agree more.
