Nob Hill is one of San Francisco's signature neighborhoods, renowned for its city landmarks and the famous hotels that border Huntington Park. For those who explore further, it also reveals unexpected facets. In addition to its swanky character, the area is influenced by the diverse personalities of the downtown neighborhoods that surround it, making it an intriguing place to visit.

We live five minutes from Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco's downtown Union Square, and the famous China Town of San Francisco, the oldest such district in the U.S. Ten minutes from Golden Gate Park and the Presidio, 20 minutes from Muir Woods, Sausalito and Tiburon. There are excellent golf courses, beaches and wonderful bike trails within easy reach.

Also within two to four hours, you can visit Big Sur, Monterey Bay and its world-famous aquarium, Carmel-By-The-Sea, Yosemite National Park, and Napa & Sonoma Valley's vineyards.

The residence is also within walking distance to a variety of shops, parks, buses, and cable car stops. It's a wonderful place with easy access to everything that is happening in town, both for children and adults alike.

We are a American/Japanese family. Tom is an executive of a company, Mayumi is Japanese national, full-time mom who dedicates her time in dancing and taking care of the family, Chelsea is our 10 year old daughter who attends French school here in San Francisco.

We love to travel as much as our time allows, for now we are looking to take a month away from home in the summer.
We have done 3 very successful home exchanges in the past and would like to do more exchanges in the future.
