We believe in mindful, intentional, balanced personal growth. While no activity or practice is ever required to live here, we do care about a cohesive community where each person has at least an interest, and a desire to occasionally partake in collective activities and life practices. Alexandria House is home to meditators, developers, teachers, and travelers dedicated to building a better world, together. Immerse yourself in a social, intellectual and compassionate environment with weekly events, and experience adventures to the city, shared meals, group meditations, talks on Real Magic and spirituality.

You're a great fit if you:
•Know you are the average of the people you spend the most time around, and want to both join and contribute to an environment where everyone is aware of that :-)
•Are healthy and care about a good diet, fitness plan, life path and mindful use of your time
•Are open to feedback and personal growth
•Are real, clear and direct
•Are someone who enjoys being held accountable to their good habits, commitments, and life goals
•Are chill and enjoy life
•Have a good sense of humor
•Are kind and compassionate
•Love dogs

Extra bonus points if any of these apply to you :-)
•You like to meditate
•Are comfortable with living authentically as Who We Are - unashamed of our individual quirks, uncontrolled by needless cultural conditioning.
•Are mindful: We keep clean. We don't abuse our bodies. We act responsibly in all our endeavors, and care for each other and the space around us.
•You are creative! Even if you ain't an artist - if thou hast no poetry - if yer don't know who Hagrid is - then think twice, mortal. To live here is not just to partake, but also to contribute.
•You're ambitious! Do you want to build a blockbuster company?
•You're inspirational! Do you live in a way that inspires others? Do you exude your professional success, your philosophies, your personal creative flair in a way that makes people stop, look, and listen? Or do you inspire through your humility? All are welcome. All are encouraged.
•You're supportive! If you strive for - but haven't consistently lived - any of the above, we can help you find your inner Guru, Wizard, and Artist :-)

Since this is a house with a great vibe of personal growth, you can always ask for support becoming the best version of yourself. All are welcome, and Alexandria is very LGBTQ friendly (and usually 25-35% of residents identify as LGBTQ).

Palo Alto is a bustling, small city on the peninsula south of San Francisco. It is adjacent to Stanford University and home to hundreds of Silicon Valley technology companies, ranging from VMware and Hewlett-Packard to tiny startups operating in garages. Alexandria House is near a park, swimming pool and Starbucks, and within 15 mins of Stanford, Google, Facebook, Singularity University, and Caltrain.
