Beauty and calm! That's what you'll feel when you are a guest at my house! I live close to lots of fun places to dance, eat, hike as well as public transport, a quick walk to Lake Merritt . I speak Spanish! I speak Italian too. Welcome!

The space
I am a very open, helpful person who can hook you up with all kinds of fun things to do in Oakland. Or you can just stay home and chill, listening to music, reading. It's a very mellow atmosphere!
There are about 20 steps to get from the street to my apartment. This might be challenging for people with mobility issues.

Guest access
Guests will have access to all public spaces. Bathroom, kitchen living room, dining room.

During your stay
During the week, I teach which keeps me very busy. However, I am available on the weekends to cook breakfast, show you around, chat.

Other things to note
Children are welcome! I am a teacher and enjoy the company of young people! I love music and hope you do too!

Neighborhood highlights

I love my neighborhood because while it's a quiet street, a few minutes walk and you are at the lake where things are always happening. You can jog, sit and watch the sunset, read, people watch, do yoga, capoeira on the weekends. It's a culturally amazing area! Also lots of wonderful restaurants a 10 minute walk away.

I am an energetic, creative, mellow person. I love being a third grade teacher but work hard all week. To relax I make jewelry, exercise, sing and read. Not all at once! I enjoy sharing my home and hope to make your stay a wonderful experience! I have lived in Italy, Nicaragua and have travelled through Egypt and Sudan. I speak Spanish, Italian and some Arabic and Portuguese. I am committed to making this world a better place and try to live by Buddhist principles. Reading and eating healthy are a MUST for me!
