Why Kaval Park?
Our first guest was the very talented independent movie director Bogdan Darev, who was traveling the world with his new documentary film Kaval Park. He was so generous and left us a wonderful gift - his beautiful signed Kaval Park poster.
Kaval = old world mountain shepherd’s flute, traditionally played throughout the Balkans.

Paradise Park is an urban, diverse and centrally located residential neighborhood in East Bay - just across from San Francisco via Bay Bridge. It sits on the border with North Oakland, Berkeley and Emeryville.
The North Oakland/Berkeley/Emeryville neighborhood coveted by professionals, hipsters and families alike for its central location, cultural diversity, great climate and close proximity to UC Berkeley and a short drive to San Francisco.
This rapidly changing area checks all the hipster boxes: cupcakes, local great coffee shops, vegan donuts, a knitting shop, a lovely local beer brewery and underground intimate music concerts venue.
With all the bees, chickens, goats, and organic community gardens here, it should probably be dubbed Oakland Farms.
San Pablo Avenue, the main shopping street, is dotted with wonderful local cafes, breweries and businesses both long-established and newish, but there’s all the retail you can find across the Emeryville border. Walk, bike, or drive to Trader Joe’s, the Berkeley Bowl, and the upscale Bay Street shopping plaza with all the small boutiques, shops and movie theater.
Transitwise, it’s a snap to get to Berkeley, downtown Oakland, or San Francisco. The Ashby BART station is a 15-minute walk, and AC Transit buses run regularly along Sacramento and San Pablo, while express buses to and from San Francisco stop on Sacramento during commute hours.
• Designated parking spot
• 5-10 min drive to Berkeley, Oakland, Emeryville
