Stout would go around the world and bring back rare books and that's how the store was born.

One of the best bookstore i've been. Good selection of design / art book as well. The staff is super nice and knowledgeable. A must.

Perfect spot If you need to get work done while enjoying a latté. Always plenty of space.

You have a lot of hills to choose from in San Francisco but in my opinion the best (and most varied) views are from Bernal Hill. Bonus: from my kitchen table I can watch tiny blobs moving around on this hill-- slow blobs are people, fast blobs are dogs.

Dense eucalyptus forest on a hill. Great hike on foggy San Francisco days.
