I have a pretty spacious place (its an apartment, not a house, but the living room is massive and it has a couple of couches and room for a couple of mattresses) and may be able to help them out for a couple of days. I live right across the street from the Berkeley.
In addition, last year, I made some very good friends that were also students from Russia, and some of them are still here in Belmar. I will try to track them down. That way, they will at least be able to make some friends from their homeland. Their is a very decent size community of Russian youth in Belmar. Drop me a note if you think I may be of help. tony --- fouroninesecond <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, Group! > > Does anyone have a place for 4 young (all 20 years > old) students to > stay?
