Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Try out cohouisng his spring and summer in Oakland, CA!

[Jan DeKenis (jandk]

Hi Joani... if you travel again, can you let me know? I'm considering 
a move and trying out Oakland/the Bay Area would be terrific.  I live 
in Cambridge Cohousing and have house sat for others in the past.

Thanks for keeping me on your radar!
