I am an author, activist and research scholar, currently trying to write the final volume of a Trilogy about favelas in Rio de Janeiro. I founded a global non-profit network among the world's largest cities to to share solutions to problems they face in common. I have a PhD from MIT and was a tenured Professor at UC Berkeley before moving back to the NY area. Living here gives me access to an artistic and creative community of people, many of whom I see in yoga, dance class, hiking, farmer's market, local concerts and art galleries. I am looking for a responsible and trustworthy person(s) who will enjoy living here for 3 months and taking care of my 2 beloved cats. I'll be happy to talk with you about any questions you might have.
