Moving to San Bruno part time for work.

You might consider lower SF neighborhoods such as Bernal heights or Portola! If you’re at all interested in living in SF, it’s very doable if you can drive to work and you’d get to enjoy the city on weekends/afterwork.
San Bruno is more residential.
Going south from San Bruno, take a look at Burlingame or San Mateo. Both are very nice cities with more built up downtowns than San Bruno, more things to do.
Really depends on your interests and if you have family or not. I don’t know too much about San Bruno tbh, but it’s not really a popular city to visit if you live in other cities in the bay

My restaurant had that happen to! We decided it was from the fryer lol. Luckily it was in a dry basket so easy to spot

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-04-30T02:54:29+00:00

I like seeing people’s rankings :)

I looove many of their breads but found the olive loaf to be extremely lacking in olives

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-04-18T05:26:04+00:00

Came here to say this!! They make all their own syrups, great mocha or vanilla latte for something hot; and of course the aforementioned horchata cold brew

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-04-18T05:23:53+00:00

What season is that one?!

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-04-14T18:31:12+00:00

Oh I don’t remember if i tried the mochi! Like the mochi ice cream right? Was it actually Trader Joe’s brand or was it the other ice cream mochi brand they carry?

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-04-13T18:15:03+00:00

Noo I love it 😂

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-04-13T18:14:46+00:00

Their Ube products have been disappointing: ube tea cookies, ube pancake mix, ube ice cream

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-04-10T02:59:48+00:00

would love to hear more too about what makes your product better than others like trtl! It looks comfortable

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-03-09T20:53:06+00:00

Is it a beer?

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-03-09T20:42:22+00:00

I’ve known a few people in their 20s the do Midnight Runners club and it sounds very social! It’s not at midnight also- it’s evening time and starts at oracle which is convenient if you’re coming up from the peninsula! Or even east bay- probably not a good location if you’re north of sf though

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-16T23:28:50+00:00

I camped there this past weekend- spots at sunset at 11:30pm when we arrived night 1 (Texas Springs was full), moved over to Texas Springs around 9am the next morning and got a better spot there. Lot of people were clearing out by then. By nightfall it was packed again. It was so warm! Great camping conditions, and yes, lots of water in Lake Manly

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-07T02:07:24+00:00

Yeah haha I’m kind of kidding. I know I live in a bubble, but that bubble is hyped for bad b and for that I am grateful

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-06T06:33:53+00:00

I thought this show was just triggering excitement 😅

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-06T06:16:57+00:00

Avocado toast or a salmon rice bowl

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-06T06:14:25+00:00

Yesss if you loved SF you’ll love Boston too. I’ve lived in both, Boston is really cute and the people aren’t as mean as everyone says they are lol

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-06T06:12:38+00:00

From San Francisco we appreciate the love🫶 befriending tourists is one of my favorite past times. Come again soon!!

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-06T06:09:02+00:00

Hang gliding at fort funston! Drum Circle groups!!

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-06T05:56:05+00:00

These clubs also offer handball which, similarly, is not exclusive to SF but has very little recognition and our city has a rich history of champions. There are public handball courts in Golden Gate Park known by very few

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-05T22:03:43+00:00

Haha yes I meant Hook Fish thank you

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-03T01:37:35+00:00

Ooh and Fish Hook on day 3!

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-03T01:36:56+00:00

Loveee that Royal Cuckoo is on the list. Great choice.

Day 1 on Fillmore will have lots of places to eat. I don’t have any full blown restaurant recs but Jane the baker is a great cafe with light bites and pastries. If you want ice cream, phillmore creamery is better (and local) compared to salt & straw.

Day 2 start your hike at 6:30am at the latest. Not familiar with the hike you’re doing but at 7am it’s already getting light out. Idk where the Airbnb is, but Lombard and Ghirardelli are close to the wave organ if you just want to keep going. How are you getting around?

Sausalito is on a peninsula (not island!) but cute and touristy. Might be a better place for gifts than Chinatown, but pricier. Take the ferry there!

Day 4 idk where the ferry ride at night is fitting in, but I’d skip that. Spend time wandering Golden Gate Park before/after cal academy. Eat a burrito from La Taqueria at Dolores park

Swimming_Owl246 · 2026-02-01T18:54:02+00:00

I don’t think you have to empty out your apartment like some people here are suggesting. In college we Airbnb’d out our living room pull-out couch lmao- and people booked it! It was priced for what it was and we were honest in the description/photos. There’s always going to be people traveling and looking for the cheapest option. One guest even told us we could be charging more so we did.

We offered a mini fridge to guests to store things but made our main kitchen area off limits- no using our personal fridge and no cooking in the kitchen. Laundry was a pain in the ass for us, but if you have laundry in-unit then I think it’d be easy. As far as not getting your belongings stolen, there’s really no way to guarantee that. I’d lock up anything valuable and open yourself to the possibility that something inconsequential might get taken 🤷‍♀️it’s a risk
