Letter from the Editor

The Bay Area is distinctive and irreplaceable. Our landscape is a series of cities constructed to blend into the rolling hills, with weather patterns that fluctuate block by block, and hour to hour. Most importantly for the residents of this exalted corner of California, our style and culture are varied but accepting. For all these reasons, as locals, we take pride in living here.

My husband and I moved to the San Francisco in 2005 as adventurous newlyweds. Over the last 13 years we have lived in five different Bay Area locales, and have finally settled into the North Bay. Through these different chapters each site has been the perfect place to call home. Regardless of our mood, the weather, or how much time we have, the Bay Area never fails to provide places to explore and experiences to share with friends and family.

One perk of working with Paragon agents is that they are connoisseurs of the region. Their uncommon knowledge of the Bay Area inspired a number of our features on unique places, including our guide to Angel Island, attractions at Tilden Park, Quintessential San Francisco Experiences, and Distinct Dining Spots.

We hope this issue inspires you to explore these sometimes hidden gems which make the San Francisco Bay Area so exceptional. Please share your adventures with us via Facebook, or tag us at @paragonregroup on Instagram.

Happy exploring,

Sonia Roll
