Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Fouad
I was born and raised in Algeria. I experienced the independence war of the country as a kid and that gave me a deep sense of justice and equality. I was fortunate to have had access to education and was able to get a Ph.D. in engineering from Stanford. I dedicated 25 years of my professional life to a non-profit organization that made a difference in fighting poverty, protecting lives and livelihoods and providing opportunities for education and jobs to the least privileged and neglected.
Why they chose this property
The guest unit is attached to me home. I like the diversity, creativity and vibes of Oakland.
What makes this property unique
Safe, comfortable, quiet, great views and convenient
