Where I Live

Oakland - In an apartment overlooking the river. I started my housing search on Craigslist.
 

Best Place To Eat

Tie between Sphinx Cafe & Harris Grill.
 

Best Off-Campus Activity

Play Frisbee on the lawn of the Cathedral of Learning.
 

Best Grocery Stores

Whole Foods for fruit, Giant Eagle Market District for just about everything else.
 

Best Way to Exercise

Exercise: 5-10min., x2 per day (e.g. morning & evening) at home.
Sports: Ultimate Frisbee.
 

My Recommendation

There is a convenient & engaging world outside of the Shadyside/Squirrel Hill Bubble (MANY worlds actually), don't fall into the trap of spending your whole time just there.
