Hi! My name is Tracey, and I live in a beautiful 5-bedroom home with my two dogs, Luke and Simba. I am looking to rent two of my bedrooms to female students. I lived and worked in South Korea for 5 years (2003-2008 at Samsung and Yonsei University), I have studied in France and Costa Rica, and I have traveled throughout Asia, Europe, and Central America. I love meeting people from different cultures!
My home is a 3-minute walk to the bus stop, and if you are a Parkland College student, the bus ride is only 15 minutes long with no transfers! (This may not seem short compared to bus rides in Seoul, but it is very short for our bus system!) If you have a car, the drive is approximately 8 minutes. I teach at Parkland College, so if your schedule matches mine, you can ride with me in my car. UIUC students will have a longer bus ride of approximately 50 minutes with one transfer. If you have a car, the drive is only 15 minutes.
Your room has recently been furnished with a new bed and mattress, sheets and pillow, a floor lamp, and a desk. Also, both rooms contain large closets and a TV. The $600 rent includes all utilities, cable TV, WiFi, Netflix, and Hulu. If only one student is living in the home with me, you will have your own bathroom. If both bedrooms are rented, you will share the bathroom with the other student. There is also a self-serve laundry room. Please note that the $600 does NOT include means. However, if you are interested in including meals as part of your homestay experience, this can be added for an additional fee.
There are many attractive features about my home and its location: I have a large backyard with a patio, umbrella table, grill, and hammock under beautiful trees. The neighborhood is one of the best in Champaign with a quiet, tree-lined street and golf course across the street from the house. In addition, there is a YMCA gym a 5-minute walk from my home that features a large pool, sauna, basketball court, indoor track, cardio and weight machines, and group fitness classes all for only $30/month for students. Also, there are restaurants (Korean, Indian, Italian, etc.), a coffee shop, a pharmacy, etc. only a 15-minute walk away (7 minutes by bus, 3 minutes by car).
If you arrive at Willard Airport (Champaign-Urbana), I will be happy to pick you up when you arrive.
It is important that you are not scared of big dogs. My larger dog is often scared of strangers at first and may bark at you, but if we spend about 30 minutes giving him treats and letting him get to know you, you will find that he is a very gentle and loving dog.
I look forward to meeting you :-)
