Today was a day for sight seeing. After spending the majority of our time with appearances and work, jack and I decided to do what any tourist would do in san Francisco and take it all in… well, as much as one can take anyways! Growing up in new york city, you’re pretty much used to all the craziness and tourists but its never pleasant really so we did our best not to be annoying.
We started our day of course by hitting the castro… first stop… starbucks. While sippin our coffees, we happened on a quaint little realty where condos and apartments were displayed. The broker in me had to stop to see how our left coast cousins did it. Guess what… its all the same!
Then it was time to shop. my good friend Antonio Biaggi, after months of prep work has finally opened his entirely “green” store in san francisco in the heart of the castro. this home and gift store is called Eco Boutique. All of the inventory consists of recycled, repurposed, organic or sustainable materials. I love little notebooks and of course he had some made of recycled paper and so I bought one.
Antonio says...
“The store’s mission is to sell eco-responsible items at the best possible price,” Antonio states. “I was tired of my friends relating that they wanted to shop more responsibly but always resented the dramatically higher cost,” he explained. “More people are searching for eco-friendly products that are both green and affordable. Consumers want to make responsible choices at the same price, or close to the same price, of non-green items they would usually choose. My goal is to make the entire inventory at Eco Boutique as affordable as possible.”
