About the co-op (affectionately called Eyja, short for the Icelandic volcano that no one can pronounce):

• We are a group of 8 social justice-minded grad students, professionals, teachers, farmers, musicians, poets, hikers, dancers, readers, travelers, and dreamers living in a beautiful 1904 house in central Palo Alto.
• Our house is a 4-minute cycle from the city center and 10-minute cycle from Stanford campus. We have spacious shared indoor cooking & living spaces and a beautiful porch and garden.
• We want to build a community in which all are welcome, and are committed to learning from all of our members. Some of the values we are excited to cultivate are: radical hospitality, diversity, learning, egalitarianism, cleanliness, fairness, and sustainability.q
• Community is important to us! In addition to house dinners (food is a love language), we build community through events such as monthly second Sunday vegan potlucks, open mic nights, dance parties, co-op crawls. At the same time, we give space for productivity and personal time. We are looking for a housemate who is excited to contribute to our communal living, by bending our minds with new ideas and viewpoints, ukulele jam sessions, or banana-pancake making skills.
• We’ve found that communal living can save you a lot of time and money: the house shares groceries, and we usually cook 4 shared vegetarian / vegan-friendly dinners per week. All groceries plus utilities are covered by monthly $290 house dues.
