Hey DC folks,
My cousin Nena do Nascimento just got a job at IRD, an Arlington NGO. She’s a 22-year-old, recent McGill graduate, and has lived all over the world including being born in France, raised in Chicago, Switzerland, and Connecticut and just came back from a 3-month stint in Ghana. She speaks four languages (English, French, Spanish, Portuguese) and is just generally really awesome.
She’s looking for a DC apt/room in a house for no more than $700 at the absolute top, ideally in the $500-$600 range. She’s looking to move in sometime mid/end of October.
If you guys have any leads or insider tips, please email me and I’ll pass them her way.
Hi. Got this link from Aaron M. in Salem (a former co-worker). The price range is a little optimistic for this area, though maybe a room share might be found. Try Craig’s List and Washington City Paper classifieds. Good luck!
At those rock-bottom prices, I would suggest she look in Columbia Heights or eastern Capitol Hill, the latter being an easier Metro to Arlington. The easiest commute and cheapest proces for her would be out in Arlington. Only downside (and a deal killer for me): Northern Virginia is suburbia.
