We are a diverse group, usually one male (Bill) and one couple (Don and Steven). We are working (a psychologist), or retired (from Silicon Valley).
We have homes in Brooklyn, New York, and San Diego, California. Quite often a sister travels with us.
The house in Brooklyn is very large, and there are two students who live in the house full time and care for the pets while Bill is away. The house in San Diego is two miles from the San Diego Zoo, and is a two hour drive from Disneyland.

Read More...This was a wonderful exchange. It is clear these hosts have exchanged a lot before as they were aware of the things we needed. The neighborhood is charming and the view was great. The house is quiet. The location is good for getting around to all parts of San Diego. We would definitely exchange with these hosts again and give them a high recommendation.

You did prepare our arrival very neatly and the surroundings of you home on the top were tremendous. We did enjoy our stay very much. All our best wishes for your next echanges! Patrick+++

Kodinvaihtoon tarjottavan kodin kuvailu
We are a non-Jewish family in a large house in a prosperous Orthodox Jewish neighborhood. We are a 10 minute walk to the subway and a half hour subway ride to Midtown Manhattan.
My sons are married and live in other cities. I have two male student tenants; each has his own room. They have experience hosting Homelink families, and are helpful.
My house was 100 years old in 2013. It is comfortable but not fancy. If you go to Google to look at it, be sure you are looking at 888 E 19th Street in Brooklyn, not in Patterson. The large tree to the left in the Google picture fell on the car and house in Hurricane Sandy (10/12), as shown in picture 5 here. Picture 6 shows a workman finishing the last repair (4/13). There is a queen bed in the large master bedroom on the top floor, and a small guest room there with a double bed. There is a guest room on the middle floor with a double bed. There is a not-very comfortable pull out couch that makes into a double bed on the main floor. At large family gatherings, we have set up a single cot, or a comfortable air mattress.

Ympäristön kuvailu
Midwood is a predominantly Orthodox Jewish neighborhood of single family homes. The number one rated pizza by the slice in NY is a ten minute walk away (it's not kosher), and within a few blocks are Bengali, Pakistani, Russian, Mexican, Caribbean and Yuppie neighborhoods with ethnic restaurants of all kinds. Coney Island is an 18 minute subway ride away.

Kohdevinkkejä sekä aktiviteettisuosituksia sillä aikaa, jolloin asutte kodissamme
While some of our many Homelink guests have concentrated on Brooklyn, most spend their time in Manhattan. If you don't have an idea of what Manhattan has to offer, I suggest you vacation somewhere else! If my car is available (sometimes I travel with it; sometimes I leave it behind), there are wonderful places to visit in the Hudson Valley and on Long Island.
