The Reveal
CozyRelaxing
Come stay in my sweet little 1-bedroom Berkeley apartment for a relaxing getaway. You'll have the full apartment and the patio outside and as much as privacy you like, but I'll be right upstairs if you need anything.
If you want easy access to San Francisco, Berkeley, Oakland, and the beautiful outdoors, this is a great spot. My place is located an 8-minute walk to BART trains that take you to San Francisco in 25 minutes, downtown Oakland and Berkeley in just 1 to 2 stops, and both SFO and OAK airports. There are bus lines at the end of the block that take you around Oakland and Berkeley, and if you're driving, there's easy parking on my block.
Let me know if you have any questions.

I'm a friendly, open-minded person who loves to travel and to meet new people. I think of myself as a very sociable introvert, as I'm also quite independent and relish some alone time. I've lived in three countries and four U.S. states and have lived with a lot of different roommates over the years, so I'm good at getting along with folks and am thoughtful and respectful in other people's spaces. I spend my work days doing social justice work, which I find very meaningful, and also love to to travel, read, cook, garden, and do pretty much anything outdoors including hiking, camping, sailing, and kayaking. I'm fully vaccinated and boosted for COVID, and am a non-smoker.

If you're looking for LGBT venues, the White Horse Inn (the oldest gay bar in the U.S.) and Steamworks bathhouse are both about a mile away, and there's a growing cluster of gay bars in downtown Oakland. It's a very easy train or car ride into San Francisco's SoMa and Castro districts.
Beyond that, San Francisco and the surround Bay Area have tons of great neighborhoods, food, museums and cultural venues, if you like the outdoors, the ocean, redwood forests, hills and bay are stunning. We're just a little over an hour from Napa and a bit farther to Sonoma, Santa Cruz, Monterey and other great day trips.
I'm happy to answer questions if there's anything in particular you're interested in.
