Hello South Bay house hunters! We have the large, sunny master bedroom available July 23rd (or by Aug 1) in our spacious Palo Alto house. The room gets tons of light, has a walk-in closet, and a gorgeous private bathroom. We are currently a close group of 7 community-oriented housemates in our mid 20s to mid 30s who work in clean energy, education, academia, and electronics. We pride ourselves on our welcoming house dinners (about once a week for the house and once a month for our broader community), community-building at Ice Cream o'Clock, and sharing adventures both here and abroad.

Here's a little more about ourselves:

M is currently pursuing her Masters in Computer Science and hosts ice cream o'clock on the reg. Her ideal day includes a long bike ride, algorithms, and cooking dinners out of her Secret Santa Cookbook.

Uncle E works in clean energy, loves climbing, skiing, outdoors, eating meat, and monthly late night dancing in SF. He's lived everywhere and brought Cajun spice to PA.

M works in clean energy and enjoys trips to the computer history museum. His hobbies include exploring new cuisines, finding new cultural events in Palo Alto, sending real-talk emails, and winning wiffle ball championships. He's currently looking for a new squash partner.

Outside of economic research, T loves long meditative runs and surprise off-road Google Maps bike shortcuts. He'll listen patiently or crack you up with his understated German sass. On weekends, he uses our large kitchen to make loads of delicious food like Moroccan stew to share.

S also works in rural education policy and recently crossed two things off her bucket list -- a monthlong trip to China and meeting Junot Diaz, her favorite author.

E and K are our resident married couple, who've classed up both our internal decor and our fire pit game, are practiced at cooking cuisine that spans more than two continents, and currently are currently planning two road trips across the American West to take advantage of summer vacation.

Our house has a two car garage currently filled with bikes, skis and other adventure implements, a spacious backyard with a fire pit, wood deck and grill, the most amazing hosting kitchen / living room / dining room / great room combo in South Bay and walking distance to a grocery store, Rick's Ice Cream, and the one and only Great Clips (ok, there's more than one...)
