Seeking room or apartment near campus

Hello everyone! My name is Alessandro, I'm a 29-year-old PhD student from Italy (Milan) coming to Stanford as a visiting researcher in Earthquake Engineering from September 1, 2026 to January 31, 2027 (5 months). I'm looking for a furnished room in a shared house or apartment, somewhere withing biking or walking distance to Stanford in the Palo Alto - Menlo Park areas. My move-in date is flexible, ideally August 27; September 1 also works well if that lines up better with what's available. I'd also consider a shorter-term arrangement to bridge the gap while I keep looking for something that fits my full stay. My budget is ~$2,000/month. A bit about me: I love playing sports, especially tennis and padel, and I enjoy exploring the surroundings and going on trips, from trekking and hiking to skiing. I'm tidy, clean, very easygoing, friendly and respectful of shared spaces. I'm always up for sharing a dinner with roommates, while I also value personal space. I'm currently in Italy and will be relying mostly on video calls before arrival, but I'm happy to provide references and can share more about myself. If you have a room available or know of one, please reach out! Thank you so much! Alessandro
