Hiya!

We have 1 room available now in Takoma Park, MD (we may have on more in
the future, but definitely one for now).

The room is the largest one of a 4-bedroom house very close to the COOP
and about a 20 minute walk from the Takoma Park metro.  We are on the
Montgomery County side of Takoma and it's a little under 10 minutes to
get to UMD by car in the morning.  

We are asking $370 + 1/4 (the utilities are always fairly low).

The house is wonderful, the remaining roomies have lived there for the
past year quite happily:

gas heating and stove
large and beautiful backyard (owner has a landscaping co. to keep up
	with the beautiful front and back landscaping)
screened in porch
great neighbors (this is more important than it seems)
tons of storage
huge basement complete with a work room and bar (though not quite set up)
washer-dryer (that we've had no problems with)


we also have a small kitten - though to be honest, I'm terribly allergic
to cats and she does nothing to upset my allergies (which is nice).

A little about each of the roomies staying:

I'm a 22 y.o female who just graduated and UMD, got back from Europe about
a week ago.  Until I find a another job, I am continuing work I do from
home for the same company I worked for while in school.  Works out nicely,
though some afternoons I end up a little stir-crazy and hyper from being
in the house all day :)  I'm generallya decent roomie and spend most night
just cooking or spending time with friends and such.

The other roomie is a 26 year old grad-student in poli-sci who has been
over here for the last year from Germany (and speaks English better than
most Americans I know).  He's very cool, works a lot, and has a thing for
old cars.  He's just an all-around nice guy that's usually pleased to help
anyone out if he has the time to.  I really couldn't imagine him not
getting along with anyone.

Kitten:  a little freakish - lots of energy, loves to play, not
destructive at all, but does tend to nip at me while I'm asleep to feed
her, though thankfully, no new roomies will have to deal with her subtle
messages like I do.  Does she have a name?  We keep going back and forth -
possibly SETI or Lyra.  

I'd be happy to e-mail you any other information you cold posibly want
from the layout of the house to my philosophies on roomies or the cat's
veternary records.
