I'm looking to do an apartment swap for 2–6 weeks and am hoping to stay somewhere in the Hudson Valley, ideally within commuter distance to NYC. I work remotely but teach in person in Manhattan once a week, so easy access to the city is a plus.

About My Apartment:

- Spacious garden-level studio on the corner of Fort Greene Park

- Private entrance and a small backyard—great for morning coffee or evening air

- Full-size kitchen, perfect for cooking

- Desk setup for working from home

- Fully furnished (I can empty a dresser and wardrobe for your stay)

- On a quiet, tree-lined block in one of Brooklyn’s most walkable neighborhoods

What’s Nearby:

- Fort Greene Park is literally across the street—ideal for walks, reading, or a picnic

- Restaurants, cafés, and shops within a few blocks—like Roman’s, Habana Outpost, Greene Grape, and Hungry Ghost

- Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) and other cultural venues a short walk away

- Two grocery stores, multiple pharmacies, and a weekend farmers’ market are all within walking distance

Transit Access:

- C train at Lafayette Ave: 3-minute walk

- G train at Fulton St: 5-minute walk

- Atlantic Terminal/Barclays (2/3/4/5/B/D/N/Q/R and LIRR): 7-minute walk — direct to Manhattan and beyond

- Multiple bus lines within 1–2 blocks

- Citibike stations and bike lanes everywhere

Additional Notes:

I have two friendly cats. For shorter swaps, they can stay if you’re comfortable. For longer swaps, I can bring them with me — happy to work this out with the right person.

Dates are flexible, and I’m open to finding a mutually beneficial match.

If you have a place in the Hudson Valley and are curious about spending some time in Brooklyn, let’s connect! I'd be happy to discuss timelines and see if it’s a good fit.
