Vic is a very nice guy, always trying to make you feel at home. He is very supportive and therefore a great host. The neighborhood in Santa Clara is rather tranquil. Vic has a great "welcoming package" including tips and tricks where to go for every need, such as grocery stores, shopping etc.
In addition to that the HackerHome community is awesome. There a so many nice people and it's always fun. Especially the come-together-parties such as BBQ or Pool parties were a lot of fun. I enjoyed my stay there and will always think back to a great summer.
All in all:
I can totally recommend Vic and the HackerHome community!
