Yes, please just email me your questions -- we don't want to make things too complicated.

Thanks.

Unfortunately, I am only just leaving for San  now, so I will not be in until 1 or 1:30. I have plans to visit a cohousing community in Aptos around 5 tonight, but if you you are free between noon and then, maybe we could meet. Otherwise, I will be available most of Friday and early Saturday. 

Or if it is easiest, perhaps just emailing you some questions I had could suffice. Whatever you prefer. 

Thank you so much for your input and willingness to accommodate me. You can contact me here, or call or text me at (408) 209 3929.

Kaitlin,

I just sent you an invite to join the mailing list.

Re: where we are in the process.  It is in stasis at this point.  We have stopped meeting a few years ago and there seems little interest in cohousing in where-I-live or Silicon Valley at this point.

We can chat if you'd like, but I may not be able to provide you with too much information.  I may be able for an hour on Tuesday (tomorrow).  My wife would have more time to meet with you since she's between jobs right now; she knows about as much as I do, which is to say "not much" ;-).

We live in the Japantown area of where-I-live.

Hello,

I am an architecture student at Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo currently working on my Bachelors thesis. I am from where-I-live and the project I am proposing is essentially a cohousing development in where-I-live, retrofitted from existing older suburban homes and potentially integrating further neighborhood amenities such as daycare or a community center.

I was hoping to have the opportunity to speak with you to better understand where you are at in the process of establishing a community, as well as how you have gotten to that point and where you hope to go from it. Also, I am hoping to learn if you are looking at any specific sites, or for any certain attributes in a location.

I was hoping I might be able to informally meet with someone this week to discuss these sorts of questions. I will be in the area for the week starting on Tuesday the 20th and I have a very flexible schedule.

Please let me know if it will be at all possible for me to drop by.

Thank you,
Kaitlin Bailey
