We are a group of (mostly) Stanford postdocs who enjoy the outdoors (climbing, skiing, biking, etc), exercise, crafting, cooking meals, and hosting dinner parties, looking for a new roommate to take over the last few months of a lease, and hopefully renew for another year in September. We have had international housemates of many nationalities and are LGBT+ friendly. If interested, please reach out with a short bit of information about yourself!
