MY EXCHANGE IN CALIFORNIA, USA:
~ SANTA BARBARA, CA ~ Comfortable and cozy 1 BEDROOM/1 BATHROOM apartment in Santa Barbaras HIGHLY SOUGHT after UPPER EAST SIDE. The apartment has a FULLY-EQUIPPED KITCHEN and a FULL TUB-OVER-SHOWER BATHROOM. My well-maintained apartment building is within short walking distance to the downtown center. Nicely situated, it is just a short walk away from the citys busy main cultural, shopping, business center, and there is a beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean from this peaceful location! The apartment is MID-CENTURY CALIFORNIA STYLE, built in 1962. It exudes the architectural style of the sleek and simple MID-CENTURY ERA, and the building is nicely maintained. There is a GALLEY KITCHEN with the original BUTTER-YELLOW 1960s THERMADOR electric WALL OVEN and a matching BUTTER-YELLOW electric COOK-TOP (hob). The small kitchen while designed in 1962, is still quite efficient and equipped with many chefs-essentials. The bathroom has a shower-over-bathtub with the added charm of the original 1960s chemist-type medicine cabinet! LARGE PICTURE WINDOWS abound. The dining room has a large picture window with an airy and private view of the refreshing green zen bamboo outside. LOVELY FURNISHINGS: The new 42 round dining table was made exclusively by KNOLL DESIGNS for DWR. It is a EERO SAARINEN designed pedestal table, and has a white marble top with soft grey veining. There are four new CHARLES EAMES designed EIFFEL CHAIRS with crisp white molded seats and chrome steel bases, made by HERMAN MILLER. There are three main rooms: living room, kitchen, bedroom; and one bathroom. The APARTMENT IS LIGHT AND BRIGHT with windows in every room. In short, the apartment feels a bit like stepping back into the ICONIC 1960s, when less massive California apartments were smaller, yet somehow more authentic, ELEGANT and STYLISH. It is an uncluttered, SUNG AND COZY HAVEN IN a CITY filled with bustling activity.
WHERE:
~ SANTA BARBARA, CALIFORNIA, USA. ~ Population: 90,000. ~ SMALL, AFFLUENT, URBAN Setting.
~ A PRIME LOCATION on CALIFORNIAS PACIFIC COAST, perfectly situated between San Francisco and Los Angeles/Hollywood. My apartment is located in the highly sought after UPPER EAST SIDE NEIGHBORHOOD. It is near the HISTORIC SANTA BARBARA Old Spanish Mission a California landmark. The apartment is in a GREAT WALKING LOCATION, in the middle of all the best places to walk to everything in Santa Barbara ~ and all the while situated in a quiet tree lined area. The QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD is filled with the different vernaculars of CALIFORNIAS HISTORIC HOMES (mostly from the early 1900s-1960s) and with PARKS and soothing GARDENS for relaxing, making it a great sightseeing and walking part of town. It is a quick 15-20 minute walk into the downtown business/shopping areas, where you will find bistro-style food, CULINARY MARKETS, FRESH CALIFORNIA CUISINE, gourmet burgers, fine dining, beautiful wine tasting rooms, and small boutiques of every kind tucked around every corner. You can quickly catch a trolly and hop over to the new Funk Zone near the beachfront area, where there is another crop of the latest new wine bars, gastro-pub restaurants and a number of California style breweries/pubs, that have settled into refurbished old warehouse buildings, by up and coming millennial proprietors.
WHAT:
~ SUNSHINE, FUN, OUTDOORS, FOOD, CULTURE ~ A walking California small city; with many restaurants, wineries, theaters, art, symphony, ballet, jazz, live classical music, film festivals, cocktail clubs, numerous nightly events and trolleys. Activities galore: hike, cycle , swim, yoga, pilates and kyak, all right within the city. When that is finished for the day, everyone is thinking about evening dining choices. There is no shortage of excellent restaurants and fine dining. Santa Barbara has the FRESHEST SEAFOOD, savory ORGANIC meats, luscious COASTAL wines, and delicious ARTISINAL cocktails. There are AMERICAN STEAKHOUSES, fresh culinary cocktails, fresh seafood, wonderful and varied Italian restaurants of all kinds, Spanish tapas, British Pubs, American breweries, Swedish cuisine, Thai food, pubs, Fish & Chips, and Indian, Greek, Himalayan, and Japanese Sushi that are all within a 15-30 MINUTES WALK from the apartment, or a 5 minute drive if you are really eager. With its beautiful coastline, local farms and ranches, and WINE-COUNTRY influences, Santa Barbara is a CULINARY PARADISE. International chefs from every part of the world are here to tickle your fancy.
WHY:
~ A Walking City ~ Transportation is excellent; with trolleys, taxis, buses, bicycles, pedi-cabs, cars.
However, the best part is that my apartment is within walking distance to almost everything. There are city buses, yellow taxis, red trolleys for longer journeys, hop on-and-off express trolleys for errands and such, and they are all easily available. It is just a few minutes walk in any direction: to the city bus lines, trolleys, the Amtrak train depot, shady parks, and to the numerous city landmarks. Santa Barbara is a Colonial town built by the Spanish royal crown, and it is a joy to get lost among the many hidden alley-ways, delightful nooks, and public courtyards. A CAR IS NOT NECESSARY within Santa Barbara, as it is an excellent walking city, and my apartment is perfectly located for walking nearly everywhere.
~ Beautiful HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE & SPANISH GARDENS ~ Santa Barbara is considered ONE OF the most BEAUTIFUL COLONIAL CITIES in California, and it is a joy to walk around this CHARMING Spanish-architectural gem, with discreet old world alleyways, to discover many fine restaurants, wine bars, and shops tucked here and there.
~ The PACIFIC OCEAN & SUNNY BLUE SKIES ~ Stretches of pristine beaches for sunbathing and swimming in the blue Pacific Ocean, trails and bluffs for walking/running/hiking, ocean breezes, and STUNNING SUNSETS all ablaze are here.
~ Stunning Sights, Scented Air & Magical Lights ~
Also, there is no shortage of mental stimulation with the Santa Barbara Public Library, Universities, Colleges, Museums, Banks, Post Offices, Symphony, Ballet, Musicals, Contemporary Dance Companies, Lectures, Current Affairs, and many independent coffee roasters nearby. You will also enjoy the abundance of fragrant gardens everywhere! Enjoy a relaxing stay in my cozy and snug Santa Barbara apartment, located near the Old Mission Rose Garden. Additionally the Santa Barbara train station has daily trains that will pick you up at the Train Depot, and with a short trip along the scenic California Coast it can deliver you into downtown Los Angeles in about one hour. See the LA-MOMA, Getty Museum, the Fairfax & 3rd Food Stalls, or shop on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills without the hassles of parking a car.
~ Come see Californias summer festivals!
HOW & WHEN:
~ SPRING 2017: APRIL - JUNE, 2017

I have included a fair amount of info here, to be as helpful as possible about my apartment. I am looking for a 1 - 3 MONTH PRIVATE EXCHANGE; more specifically, I desire to be in the COTSWOLDS HILLS of GLOUCESTERSHIRE and/or Norfolk, East Anglia areas, and hope to give a clear idea of what one might be exchanging into.
~ 1960S STYLE With State-of-the-Art Entertainment ~ MY APARTMENT is NOT completely remodeled to todays standards, and it is smaller than current MEGA-MANSION STANDARDS, but it is nicely built with a COOL SUBDUED ELEGANCE, and I have FURNISHED it in a similarly 1960S ELEGANT STYLE. It is a snug and COZY NEST in a city bustling with activity. The 1962 apartment is in quite good condition, with all new double-paned locking slider windows. In terms of state-of-the-art technology: there is a NEW 52 SONY Bravia FLAT SCREEN LED TELEVISION that is sleekly wall mounted for your full cable television & movie entertainment. In addition, you would have internet Guest use of my 25 APPLE iMAC DESKTOP COMPUTER as well, in case you do not have a laptop or iPad. The apartment has WiFi/INTERNET/CABLE TV.
~ Occupancy ~ I will be looking for 1 or 2 PEOPLE MAXIMUM to occupy my apartment, due to the fact that it is only a ONE BEDROOM (and there is only 1 bed). A solo traveler is ideal, although, a couple will also be considered. Those who are attentive to their use of my home, and who take excellent care of the apartment, will be considered for possible future rents/exchanges. Also, you can choose to have the HOUSEKEEPER continue to come every week, or every other if you choose, to keep the apartment dust free and in squeaky clean condition, and to do the laundry. In yours: I will be one person. My flat is lovely to come home to, as it is quiet, UNCLUTTERED, SOOHTHING, and a COZY HAVEN IN a SMALL CITY filled with BUSTLING ACTIVITIES.
