Room available in our beautiful North Berkeley community!
We have one room open in an international, intentional community of folks in their late 20s / early 30s. There are 8 others living in this 9 bed/4 bath home in North Berkeley/Gourmet Ghetto, many of us from a different country and all here for... school or work. We have an optional food program where we keep the kitchen stocked with vegetarian essentials -- but if you want to keep your own food, that's alright too.
The space itself is a carpeted second-floor room, not ADA Accessible, next to a bathroom and stairs. Not furnished, but we can put you in touch with the outgoing housemate who might be leaving behind furniture. Please reach out if interested, and we can answer any questions and introduce you to the house!

Our intentions for the community include: A clean and organized house that is pleasant to spend time in Great food and great conversations Appreciation for diverse cultural backgrounds and perspectives A welcoming environment for people of all races/ethnicities/ages/genders/sexual orientations/religions and other lines of identity with a commitment to being anti-racist/sexist/homophobic, and actively counteracting other forms of oppression Conscious communication for conflict resolution and deepening connections To live in a sustainable way, reduce our waste, shop organic and local when possible
Events: We have house get-togethers and porch hangouts, and in the past have hosted art nights and coordinated hikes and even camping trips! We are not a party house, but are excited to host gatherings, potlucks, and low-key celebrations.
