Tenant Looking for a Home in Chicago, Illinois, United States
Monthly Budget: Maximum USD $4000

Looking for an Entire Home | Willing to Housesit
Tenant Timing: From September 1, 2024 until December 20, 2024

Description

Our family is relocating to Chicago for a semester as Hedda will be teaching a course in Musicology. Given the relatively short stay (4 months) we're looking for something fully furnished. Our two boys (16 yrs and 13 yrs) will attend public school while we're over. If not within walking distance of the University, a good public transit connection is preferable. We've previously lived in Boston and Berkeley, but this will be our first time in Chicago.

About Me

I have a background from architecture school and work with sustainable mobility through my company Beta Mobility (offices in Oslo and Copenhagen). I've called the US my home on several occasions/stays - have lived in Maine, Boston, and Berkeley previously. We're an active family with two teenage boys and spend a lot of time outdoors and travelling. My wife Hedda holds a Ph.D in Musicology and holds a position as Head Dramaturg at the Opera House in Oslo.
