looking for a place

Hi,
I am a french student arrived the 16 of september to begin a postdoc to the stanford university. I am looking for a place near stanford university (Palo Alto, Mountain view, redwood city) during one year. I could as soon as possible but would wait one month if necessary.
I am just left Québec after my PhD studies. During my studies, I shared several apartments or houses with no problems. I am social, respectfull of other, open minded and it is very easy to get along with me.
Otherwise I like hiking, climbing and I have practiced squash sometimes

In addition I could easily get references.

If you want more information, do not hesitate to contact me (lgrosse@stanford.edu).
